The researcher selects Feng-bi-tou area in Kaohsiung City for empirical research , and tries to describe its local characters, and makes the difference clear between affections and identities for the place in different life careers by means of the memories and imagination from local residents’ experiences. First, the researcher retraced important concepts about “place”, “memories”, “imagination”, and “identity”, and then the researcher proceeded to interview different generations and use questionaries for externally describing the interaction between the local residents and the place and interpret residents’ memories and imagination of the place from their experience.

From the local residents’ perceptions, they reveal dual marginality of Feng-bi-tou area: globalization marginality and localization marginality. The residents’ marginality memories constantly reappear in different periods of their life. The significant events that occurred here also intensify residents’ memories and imagination of considering themselves as margin: the building of Feng-bi-tou fishing port ,the setting sail and the close of “Blue Highway” and the abandonment of the plan of “Luotuo Mountain” community as a result of the operation of medical waste disposal factory.

If the village relocation is in doubt in the residents’ minds in Feng-bi-tou area, and that arises from the deepest impression of the marginality character of Feng-bi-tou area. With regard to the variation of place identity of each generation, if the residents identified with the place depends on whether they could accept the local character of Feng-bi-tou area, that is to say, whether they could adjust themselves to the dual marginality of Feng-bi-tou area. An individual begins realizing him/her in his/her childhood phase, and that is a foundation of local experiences. When one’s life develops, he/she attends school or seeks for employment in his/her youth phase. And his/her existence space greatly enlarges. At the same time, the degree of place identity starts to diminish, even the the youth phase is the stage that is the lowest degree of place identity in one’s life. But, most residents have the experiences of living ,working, or attending school in other place in the prime of their life. After weighing ideals and reality, the residents already commence enhancing the degree of place identity even though they could be still dissatisfied with the living conditions in Feng-bi-tou area. When they have settled here for a longer time, undergone affairs occurred here, and participated in local activities, they express their place identity by the actions of partaking in local activities at their middle age. The degree of place identity peaks at the old age. 陳文尚 2008 學位論文 ; thesis 154 zh-TW |

碩士 === 國立高雄師範大學 === 地理學系 === 96 === This research tries to perceive “place” from individuals’ memories, imagination, and identities, and probes the relation between the three subjects in concept of “place” of humanistic geography context. The researcher selects Feng-bi-tou area in Kaohsiung City for empirical research , and tries to describe its local characters, and makes the difference clear between affections and identities for the place in different life careers by means of the memories and imagination from local residents’ experiences.
First, the researcher retraced important concepts about “place”, “memories”, “imagination”, and “identity”, and then the researcher proceeded to interview different generations and use questionaries for externally describing the interaction between the local residents and the place and interpret residents’ memories and imagination of the place from their experience. Moreover the researcher adopted the thick description according to the results of interviews and questionaries.
Owing to unique development of the marginality of position and the administrative divisions in Feng-bi-tou area , Kaohsiung City, Feng-bi-tou becomes the marginal area in Kaohsiung City. From the local residents’ perceptions, they reveal dual marginality of Feng-bi-tou area: globalization marginality and localization marginality. The residents’ marginality memories constantly reappear in different periods of their life. The significant events that occurred here also intensify residents’ memories and imagination of considering themselves as margin: the building of Feng-bi-tou fishing port ,the setting sail and the close of “Blue Highway” and the abandonment of the plan of “Luotuo Mountain” community as a result of the operation of medical waste disposal factory. These incidents even more make the residents experience the “marginality” of Feng-bi-tou area. Near Hongmao Harbor area village relocation plan contrasts with the situation of Feng-bi-tou area. If the village relocation is in doubt in the residents’ minds in Feng-bi-tou area, and that arises from the deepest impression of the marginality character of Feng-bi-tou area.
With regard to the variation of place identity of each generation, if the residents identified with the place depends on whether they could accept the local character of Feng-bi-tou area, that is to say, whether they could adjust themselves to the dual marginality of Feng-bi-tou area.
