Description:By Akajiro Oka, translated by Zhang Wojun. Published by Beixin Books, Shanghai, in 1929. 334 pages.
Akajiro Oka (1868-1944), a Japanese zoologist and social critic, was one of the earliest Japanese scholars to study the languages of the world. He was also a very important proponent of evolutionary theory. Gloom and Freedom is a collection of Oka's essays published between 1912 and 1920 in periodicals such as Chuokoron, Yuben, and Taiyo, many having to do with current affairs, education and people's imaginings of life in the future, as well as personal reflections of World War I. In all there are 18 essays, including "Nature's Revenge", "If Man Does Not Offend God, God Becomes the Devil", and "The Origin of Freedom and Equality". Before the main text is a preface by Oka, and at the end is an essay by the author titled "A Critique of Modern Civilization". From the translator's notes at the end of the essay, we can determine that Zhang Wojun translated the book around 1928.
The copy of Gloom and Freedom housed by the museum features green paper binding, with the book title and the names of the author and translator printed on the cover in gold-stamped lettering. Due to its age, the cover is quite faded. The title page bears the collector's seal and signature, and the endpapers are marked as follows: "Zhang Wojun is a master who pioneered modern literature in Taiwan. This book was purchased from a book stall around 1951. The front and back covers and copyright page are damaged; it has been over 60 years since it was re-bound. I hereby donate it to the collection of the National Museum of Taiwan Literature." From this, we know that the book not only has valuable historic significance, it is also an important testament to Zhang's ability to translate from Japanese as well as to his contributions to the new literary movement.

3.丘淺次郎（1868-1944）為日本動物學家、文明批評家，是日本最早學習世界語的人，同時也是極為重要的進化論傳播者。《煩悶與自由》屬雜文性質，集結作者在1912年（明治45年）至1920年（大正9年）間發表於《中央公論》、《雄辯》、《太陽》等刊物的文章，多針對時局、教育等面向，以及人們對未來生活的想像，還有親歷第一次世界大戰的一些感想，包括〈自然的報復〉、〈人不犯神神自作祟〉、〈自由平等的由來〉等18篇。正文前有丘淺次郎〈序〉，書末則有作者〈現代文明的批評〉一文；根據文末譯者註記，張我軍翻譯此書的時間大致集中在1928年。
4.本館所典藏之《煩悶與自由》為綠皮精裝，封面以燙金字樣印製作者、譯者、書名，因年代久遠，書背明顯褪色，書名頁有捐贈者藏書章暨簽名，扉頁誌記如下：「張我軍為台灣開創現代文學的大師。本書於民國四十年前後購自書攤，封面封底暨版權頁俱毀，經重裝迄今亦餘六十餘年矣。特此捐贈台灣文學館庋藏。」由此可知，本書不僅具有珍貴的時代意義，更是張我軍在新文學運動之外專擅於日文翻譯的重要見證。
