This paper examines Zhang Wojun’s 張我軍 understanding of national cultural identity and the debate over New and Old Literature, as reflected in related essays that he wrote in the 1920s. Currently, most scholars agree that a Chinese (ethnic) consciousness occupies an important place in Zhang’s conceptual thinking, but owing to differences in political viewpoint, they also evaluate the significance of this differently. As a consequence, in current academic discourse there clearly also exist many divergent and contradictory interpretations of the texts and background of the times. In the light of the deepening of this discourse in current research, there is evidently a need to clarify the main threads of Zhang’s literary thought with regard to the Taiwanese New Literature movement as the main impetus for reform during the period of Japanese rule. In re-examining Zhang Wojun’s literary ideas and related writings, this research attempts to trace the course of different currents of thought. On the main premises that the society and culture of Japanese-occupied Taiwan were very different, and that the historical development of Taiwanese literary culture has its own peculiarities, this paper will try to objectively understand the implications of Zhang’s ideas, map out his inner identity, and thus explore the significance of the course of development of the Taiwanese New Literature movement and its possible clash with the old literature. |
