日治時期臺灣報刊媒體已成為小說發表的主要園地，作為臺灣第一份漢文雜誌：《臺灣文藝叢誌》（1919-1925），內含長篇幅的小說專欄，在經營不易的民資同人雜誌，必有其不同於商業雜誌的考量。當時對女性地位的討論集中在雜誌、報紙與新媒體上，本文藉由《臺灣文藝叢誌》的創立宗旨、發刊時機、讀者定位等因素，析論該文藝叢誌小說中的女性角色。 並由該小說專欄中的女性角色，思考《臺灣文藝叢誌》同人所付表的民族抗日菁英，對於當時女性角色的社會期待。

Printed media was already the primary format for novels during the Japanese Colonial Age. As the first Chinese-language journal in Taiwan, The Literary Journal of Taiwan (1919-1925) stands apart from other journals, was the first to publish serial novels. It is presumable, that this coterie journal, published during the colonial period, had more than only commercial interest in reserving considerable space for serials, especially, when times were hard for the publishing business. Focusing onto the principles of journal foundations, such as female role in journals, newspapers and other mass media, as far as on the basic of the era, in which journal appeared, readers opinion and the significance of creating the first serial novel, this paper analyzes the female characters in the novel. Throughout discovering the role of women in the novels, this paper attempts understand coterie journal position from the perspective of social elites and expectations of society for women.
