Abstract: The spirit of the indigenous culture, at the present time, is often looked upon as the important part of the world literature. There is a complicated relationship between the resources and modernization of indigenous literature. While Su tong’s fiction embodies the possibility of the “south” as the creative resources of the contemporary literature as well as the other aesthetics at the age of globalization and modernization, Lu Wen-fu's unique favor in fiction, by way of the indigenous space of narrow streets and lanes, makes the possibility into the reality, which reaches the integration of the aesthetic expression and the cultural perspective. And Zhang Da-chun’s Violent Group in the City-state, combing the “modern” writing mode with the rich factors of traditional novels, produces more modernity and provides a re-thinking on the relationship between tradition and present-day.

Key words: indigenous resources, modernization, literature of the New Period
