The aim of this paper is to reexamine the artistic effect created by the three modes bi, xing" flourished in the age of The Book of Songs. It also attempts to clarify the diverse, experimental, and difficult poetic language of modern Taiwanese poetry. The main concern here is: Can the three modern poetic modes of "narration, transfiguration and correspondence" be considered as the supplementary substitution of the traditional "fa, bi, xing" modes? The poetics of transfiguration is manifested in the works of the new generation of Taiwanese poets such as Tang Juan, Luo Yijun, Lin Yaode, Ling Yu and Luo Zhicheng. The transfigurative or deformed language of these poets is indebted to the experimental projects of their predecessors like Ya Xian and Huang Hesheng. But they are also much influenced by the literary ideology of the nativist movement of the 1970s as well as the return of the life-narrative in contemporary postmodernist poetics.
