The aim of this study is by means of structural and functional analyses to investigate the folklore culture about funerals, and more, to get some specific implications from various Taiwan folk-ways. In this way, these mainly religious belief and folk-customs were taken into considerations as de-limitations to proceed the study. Both ethnographical research and historical analysis were simultaneously used to deal with the processing argument in this study. This thesis was divided into five chapters. An introduction of the study was provided for forming the content in the first chapter. In the second chapter, a discussion which laid stress on the cultural function and viewed key-points from psychological, social, educational, and cultural perspectives on the folklore funerals was suggested. Both conventional functionalism and hermeneutic methodology were used in this chapter. To discuss the forms and functions of the folklore funerals so as to understand the intrinsic meaning of the folklore funerals became the main purpose in the third chapter. From the viewpoints of cultural habits, the folklore funerals were discussed about their heritable forms. In the forth chapter, the sociological function of the folklore funerals was asserted, and more topics, including value, ethics, socialization, and culture were talked about. In the last chapter, some important suggestions for improving the folklore funerals were proposed, including rationally improving funeral rituals and promoting personnel quality in this field. Besides, to establish a whole, correct, and honest life-perspective becomes an important task for everyone in the present time. To sublimate mankind mind as well as to construct a peaceful society in this instrumental society is the most vision and intention for me to finish this study. Because to hold the funeral ritual in esteem was a good virtue, because it can realize the perpetual value of life, maintain an everlasting continuity of human spirit and promote a modernized funeral ritual.
