ABSTRACT

The 1960s was also a time when new women's literature was created as a large number of many writers appeared through ≪Literary Review≫ and ≪Modern Literature≫, which led the attempts and initiatives of modernism in Taiwan. The Taiwanese literary acceptance of modernism is a reaction to the coercive political environment such as the surveillance culture of white terror and martial law. At that time, it was difficult for writers to deal with sensitive sanctions such as the reflection of the social reality claimed by the Literary Magazine. For this reason, as an antithesis, he tried to find an answer in subjective reality, emphasizing inner experience and individual consciousness. Existence and death, which are constantly questioned and thought about in the works of Taiwanese women in the 1960s, are ultimately a philosophical interpretation of the fear and pain they faced.
