| Summary: | 碩士 === 東海大學 === 建築研究所 === 85 === By re-creating, re-using, and re-inventing, people wish to experience and embrace themselves with "the past" through the mechanism of historical remains and heritage; for instance, museums. The objective of this thesis is to investigate those remaining constructs that were developed along the time horizon and yet are observable nowadays, with the attempt to draw inferences from those observations, within the observers'' mental spaces, to construct a model of the past in the context of the current time frame.
This thesis design draws on a case study, ArLi Mountain Railroad, to substantiate that research goal. The case study is conducted in the manner of "museum browsing." Stopovers (e.g, stations and reservations) and key scenic spots (e.g, remains and natures) are traversed with the assistance of satellite stations and touring facilities. Selected landscapes, land lines, and pathways along the traversal course are re-constructed based upon their distinct features. These elements are re-produced and linked into becoming a coherent instrumental device that serves the purposes of revealing, demonstrating, and explaining the past, Observers are accordingly endowed with an opportunity to witness the development of ArLi Mountain''s Railroad culture and its evolution process, and hopefully come to appreciate and gain more insights to the values and meanings of ArLi Mountain Railroad.
