摘要: | 有關鄒族神話研究的論述,自日治時代人類學家開始,陸續有學者岡田信興(1905)、杜而未(1907)、伊能嘉矩(1909-1910)、佐山融吉(1915)、小島由道(1918)等人發表調查和研究報告;俄國語言學家聶甫斯基也於1927年深入阿里山特富野、達邦二社蒐錄鄒語與神話。臺灣光復後,學者衛惠林、余錦泉、林衡立等人自1951年起陸續有論著問世,而臺灣學者董同龢也於1964年再作鄒語研究專論,然而這些文獻大多以調查和記錄為主,偏向民族誌或語言學的範疇,對於神話的深入分析或比較並不多見。 近年來,鄒族學者浦忠成陸續發表以鄒族文化為主的論著,而學者王嵩山也針對鄒族社會、宗教生活等發表相關研究專論,這些論述對於鄒族傳統社會的變遷、祭儀的運作與文化的傳承,相當程度地歸納出一個脈絡系統,尤其學者浦忠成是鄒族特富野社人,其所著的《臺灣鄒族神話研究》一書中,對於鄒族神話的特色與價值均有深入探討,然而對於鄒族神話中的藝術表現與美學建構卻付之闕如,因此本研究除探討鄒族的文化內涵外,亦將運用歷史文獻、前人專書論著與個人田野調查資料,探討鄒族神話中的藝術與美學。 至於在研究方法上,則運用了文獻歸納法、田野調查法、神話情節單元分析等方法,透過文學社會學、符號學、美學等理論基礎的角度切入,以深入探究鄒族神話的興起、演繹、變形,並比較其他民族或種族相關的神話,以瞭解族群內部發生改變的動力或異族文化帶來的變因,探求講述者主觀的改變原因,以喚起社會大眾對鄒族文化的重視與關懷,重新整合鄒族歷史、文化、制度、禮教與神話的關係,進而認識臺灣山林文化最深處的意涵,讓鄒族神話在新世紀呈現新時代的意義與價值。 本論文的章節安排如次:第一章為緒論,包括研究動機、目的、方法與範圍,並預期研究成果。第二章為鄒族神話的文化意涵,闡述鄒族神話的形質與流傳方式,將鄒族神話概分為自然、人文、社會等三大類,以探究其在鄒族人民日常生活中的文化意涵。第三章為鄒族神話的藝術表現,內容包括鄒族神話的藝術特色、表現手法與藝術價值等。第四章為鄒族神話的美學建構,論述鄒族神話的思維特色、美學功能,以及鄒族神話的瓦解與重建。第五章為結論。 Regarding to the articles of the research of Tsou Mythology in Alishan , from the time of Taiwan governed by Japan, there were a lot of anthropologists, such as Gantian Hsianhsing(1905), Du Er-Way(1907), Yinneng Chiachu(1909-1910), Chousan Jungchi(1915), Hsioudou Yudou(1918), expressed their investigation and research on it. Besides that, in 1927, Russian linguist, Mr. N. A. Nerskij, also came to Tfuea village and Tapangu village in Alishan collecting Tsou language and mythology. After Taiwan recovered from Japan, from 1951, the scholars Wey Huey-Lin, Yu Jiin-Chyuan and Lin Herng-Lih, brought their articles into the market. In 1964 Taiwanese scholar, Doong Torng-Her, made the special study on Tsou language. However, most of the articles were based on investigations and records which inclined to the tribe records or linguistics. We did not find the deeper analysis or comparison on mythology from them. In recent years, Tsou's scholar, Pwu Jong-Chern, has continuously published the books mainly describing the Tsou culture. The scholar, Wang Song-Shan, also released some special studies on Tsou’s society and religion. All of those books have systematically summed up with the changes of Tsou traditional society, the operation of the religious ceremony and the transmission of the culture. Especially, the book of “Taiwan Tsou's Mythology Research” written by the scholar, Pwu Jong-Chern, who was from Tfuea of Tsou, investigated deeply on the characteristic and the value of Tsou's mythology. But there is still little on the research at art performance and aesthetics construction of Tsou's mythology. Therefore, my research aims not only to know the connotation of Tsou culture but also to investigate the art and aesthetic of Tsou's mythology by using history records, predecessors’ special study and personal field work information. In regarding to the research methods, I utilize records induction way, field work way and unit analysis of mythology details through the viewpoints of the basic theory on literature, sociology, semiotics and aesthetics to understand the origin, development and changes of Tsou's mythology. Also, to know the power causing the tribe interior changes or the innovation from different tribes, I compare with the related mythology between other peoples’ and tribes’. Furthermore, by exploring the subjective change reasons of narrators, let it evoke the publics showing the respects and concerns on Tsou culture and lead us to reunion the relationships of Tsou’s history, culture, system, ethicalness and mythology. Eventually, let all of us understand the deepest meanings on Taiwan's aboriginal culture and present Tsou's mythology new era meanings and values in new century. The arrangements of this thesis are divided into the following chapters. Chapter 1 — the preface including the research intention, purpose, methods, range and expectation the research results. Chapter 2 — The meanings of Tsou culture describing Tsou's mythology pattern and transmission. Explore the culture meanings of Tsou daily life by distributing Tsou's mythology into the three fields — Nature, Human and Society. Chapter 3 — The art performance of Tsou's mythology including the art characteristic, performance and art value of Tsou's mythology. Chapter 4 — The aesthetic construction of Tsou's mythology describing the thinking features of Tsou's mythology, the function of aesthetic, the destruction and reunion of Tsou's mythology. Chapter 5 — Conclusion. |
