Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 客家社會文化研究所 === 102 === This study focuses on Hakka cultural expression and depiction of the Hakka at the Miaoli Hakka Cultural Park. Specifically, the study focuses on two questions: What are the superficial features of cultural expression and Hakka cultural depiction? Why is the Hakka culture thus expressed and depicted? Analysis is conducted and explanation is provided for the underlying connotations of “the expression of this culture and Hakka depictions” to explore the answers. Through participatory observation, literary analysis, and text analysis, focus was placed on five pavilions (comprising a total of seven themes) within the Miaoli Hakka Cultural Park from the second half of 2013 to the first half of 2014. Three conclusions were drawn from the investigation of Hakka culture as displayed through its cultural expression and Hakka depictions: decentralized Hakka, proactive Hakka, and heterogeneous Hakka. These were then respectively extended into three subjects: centralized to decentralized Hakka, passive to proactive Hakka, and homogenous to heterogeneous Hakka. In today’s Miaoli Hakka Cultural Park, one finds Hakka who are “more decentralized, more proactive, and more heterogeneous,” and the elimination of the former “centralized, passive, and homogeneous” image and understanding of the Hakka. Moreover, the globalized Hakka is not a concept of the new overthrowing the old, but a view in which the new is added to the old.
