張我軍與林燿德，一為日治時期的文人，一為八○年代後的作家，原是不相干的兩人，卻在其創作生涯中，本於對台灣文學轉變的期盼，初出文壇便如不畏虎的初生之犢，張我軍對創作舊體詩的傳統文人大肆批判，林燿德則對在台灣文壇已立穩根基的三大詩社加以抨擊，言論上有其偏激不當之處，但其意志之堅定，對台灣文學的「史」的發展眼光之精準，卻讓吾人在台灣文學史的研究中無法忽視兩位作家的存在。本論文主要以兩人在對台灣文學舊典律的描述、說明、批評、抨擊中，以及對新典律的描劃、鋪敘、期盼中的言論做對比整理，探查兩人在塑造新典律時的敘事策略，兩人以何種語言、修辭來「除舊佈新」，以及兩人對後來文壇的具體影響。此包括借用「二元對立的敘述模式」、要求文學要「與時俱進」，並且破除與「政治」的牽扯，甚至提出「重寫文學史」的訴求，都是兩人希求台灣文學建立「新典律」所共同運用的敘事策略。

Wo-chun Chang was an author who lived in the Japanese colonial period, and Yao-te Lin was a post-1980s author. Although these two authors have no relation to one another, they both dared to voice their expectations for change in Taiwanese literature. Chang denounced the traditional literati who attached themselves to Classical Chinese poetry, and Lin criticized the three major poetry societies of the Taiwanese literary world. Although their opinions were extreme, their sheer determination and accurate insights left indispensable marks on the history of Taiwanese literature. Through a comparison of Chang and Lin regarding their descriptions and criticisms of the old canons of Taiwanese literature and their portrayals, elaborations, and expectations of the new canons, this study investigated the narrative strategies of the two authors through the new canons, the language rhetoric they used to renew Taiwanese literature, and their specific influence on the subsequent development of the literary world. Both authors employed the narrative model of binary opposition, hoped for Taiwanese literature to evolve with time, sought to break the tie between literature and politics, and voiced their desire to rewrite the history of Taiwanese literature and establish new literary canons.
