Voices of P A,,Ria,-Sprmg Voices of P a,,ria,-Sprmg: A study of the Hingcun diau Song Family and Other Folk Songs of the Hingcun Area, Taiwan Submitted for PhD By ‘ Chien Shang-Jen Department of Music University of Sheffield January 2009 Abstract This thesis focuses first on Taiwanese folk songs in general, looking then in more detail at Hingcun [Hengchun in Mandarin] folk songs and finally zooming in to study in depth the tune Hingcun diau and its song family. In addition to the discussion of the musical qualities of folk songs per se, this thesis lays stress on how these folk songs . were shaped by and interacted with the lives of the people in the societies where they were found. Chapter One looks at the concept of folk song and then considers folk song in Taiwan from historical, musical and ethnomusicological perspectives, introducing three systems of folk song: aboriginal, Holo and Hakka folk songs. Of the three, Holo folk songs are the most significant part due to the fact that Holo people constitute the majority of the Taiwanese population. The folk songs of the Hingcun Peninsula, which is located at the southernmost tip of Taiwan, are part of the Holo category, and these are the topic of Chapters Two and Three. Chapter Two provides an account of the history and society of the Hingcun region, so describing the setting of the songs studied here. In Chapter Three I report on my fieldwork investigations into this repertory, revealing more of the folk song culture that surrounds the songs themselves, in particular the songs Susianggi and Ghubhe buann, and the outstanding vocalist Chen Da. Chapter Four looks in depth at the remarkable song family that has emerged from the Hingcun diau tune over time, analysing variants from the earliest instances available to symphonic arrangements and the latest hip hop version. The relationship between political and cultural change and the emergence of new variants is assessed throughout. The thesis is then completed by a Conclusion (Chapter 5) and two CDs of examples. Keywords: Ethnomusicology; Musicology; Asian music study; Folk song; Taiwanese folk songs; Hingcun diau ; Development of folk song Acknowledgements Firstly, I am great indebted to my supervisor, Prof. Jonathan Stock, for his help in my completion of this thesis. Prof. Stock has inspired and guided me with his profound knowledge of world music and concepts of ethnomusicology, as well as in terms of research theories and methods. In particular, he has examined, corrected and directed with patience and care each section of the thesis. His devotion is held in high esteem and gratitude by me. I would also like to express my sincere appreciation to Dr George Nicholson and Dr Andrew Killick for providing many valuable opinions in my upgrade examination. Their influence had a formative impact on the process of my research as well as on all my subsequent writing. My thanks are due to Prof. Michael Pickering and Dr Katie Van Buren, who examined this research and suggested many crucial improvements. In addition, I would like to extend my genuine appreciation to Dr Chou Chiener, who remains a teacher and friend to me. She replied to my inquiries and discussed with me patiently at all times; she has offered me great help in the writing methods of a thesis. I am also indebted to all the people who helped me and who gave interviews, songs, food, fellowship, ideas and other engagement to me in the process of my fieldwork. Some of them have passed away already. Regrettably, because the number of people is quite large, I am unable to list them one by one here. Nevertheless, I believe that they are aware that I am expressing my appreciation to them. I must, however, especially thank Chen Da, Zhu Dingshun and Professor Zhong Mingkun for continuously giving research time to me over a very extended period. In particular, Professor Zhong Mingkun has provided me with much valuable information and frequently helped me photograph and record, even arranging my transportation, room and board on certain occasions. Without their enthusiastic cooperation and assistance, this thesis could never have been completed. ii CONTENTS Abstract i Acknowledgements ii Contents iii List of Figures viii Musical Excerpt on the CD xi Chapter One: introduction Prelude 1 1.1 Research Motive and Objective 2 1.2 Research Subject and Scope 3 1.2- 1 Folk song (music) in the West and Taiwanese folk song 5 (1) Folk song (music) in the West 5 (2) With regard to Taiwanese folk song 11 1.2- 2 Taiwan aborigines 16 1.2- 3 Folk songs of Mountain aborigines 19 1.2- 4 Folk songs of Pennbo aborigines 21 1.2- 5 Han migration to Taiwan 24 1.2- 6 Hakka folk songs 27 (1) Hakka folk songs with different tunes 28 (2) Hakka folk songs with different lyrics 31 (3) Hakka folk songs with different singing forms 32 1.2- 7 Holo folk songs 33 (1) Holo folk songs based on lyric structure 33 (2) Holo folk songs based on lyric content 37 (3) Holo folk songs based on geographical region 44 (4) Holo folk songs based on functions 53 1.2- 8 The position of the Hingcun diau song family and other folk songs of the Hingcun area 54 1.3 Research on Hingcun diau in the Past -

Among them, the bronzes labeled "Forty-second-year Lai ding" ~ ~ (of which there are two pieces), "Forty-third-year Lai ding" (ten pieces), and "Lai pan" ~~ (one piece) have in­ scriptions that are particularly long for inscriptions from the Western Zhou period and run respectively to 281, 316 and 372 characters in length. The inscription of the "Lai pan," containing 372 characters, is divided into two parts, the first part is narrated from Lai's point of view but employs the third-person voice, opening with the phrase, "Lai said." The second part records an appointment (ceming :IlJt frJ) ceremony that opens, "The King said." The very exceptional first part records the service of generations of Lai's ancestors to successive Zhou Kings. The inscription mentions eleven former kings, King Wen X3:., King Wu TIk3:., King Cheng JIlG3:., King Kang *3:., King Zhao BR3:., King Mu ~~3:., King Gong *3:., King Yi i~3:., King Xiao ~(~)3:., King Yi 1J$(~)3:., King Li Jj1U (J~)3:.

  • Voices of Eternal Spring
    Voices of Eternal Spring: A study of the Hingcun diau Song Family and Other Folk Songs of the Hingcun Area, Taiwan Submitted for PhD By Chien Shang-Jen Department of Music University of Sheffield January 2009 Chapter Four The Developmental Process and Historical Background of Hingcun Diau and Its Song Family Introduction The previous three chapters of this thesis detailed the three major systems of Taiwanese folksongs - Aboriginal, Holo and Hakka. Concentrating on the area of Hingcun, one of the primary cradles of Holo folksongs, these three chapters also explored how the geographical conditions, natural landscape, and historical and cultural background of the area influence local folksongs and what the mutual relations between these factors and the local folksongs are. Furthermore, the three chapters studied in depth not only the background, characteristics and cultural influences of each of the Hingcun folk songs but also local prominent folksong figures, major accompanying musical instruments, musical activities and so on. Chapter Four narrows the focus specifically to Hingcun diau and its song family. In this chapter, on the one hand, I examine carefully the changes in Hingcun diau and its song family activated from within a culture; on the other hand, I also pay attention to the changes in these songs caused by their contact with other cultures.1 In other words, in addition to a careful study of the origin, developmental process and historical background of Hingcun diau and its song family, I shall also dissect how the interaction of different ethnic groups, languages used in the area, political and economic factors, and various local cultures influence Hingcun diau and its song family, and what the mutual relations between the former factors and Hingcun diau and its song family are.

One was the decision to wait in order to have four Hsiang Lectures in this volume rather than the customary three. The delay and small increase in the number of lectures bring new horizons in research on Chinese poetry to our readers. Indeed, in terms of the time frame covered, this volume focuses mostly, but not exclusively, on the twentieth century. Three of the four lectures are fascinating studies of the manifold significations of classical verse and their continued vitality in the discursive space of Chinese politics and culture in a century of modernization.

In The Eye Of The Selector: Ancient-Style Prose Anthologies In Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) China Abstract The rapid growth of woodblock printing in sixteenth-century China not only transformed wenzhang (“literature”) as a category of knowledge, it also transformed the communities in which knowledge of wenzhang circulated. Twentieth-century scholarship described this event as an expansion of the non-elite reading public coinciding with the ascent of vernacular fiction and performance literature over stagnant classical forms. Because this narrative was designed to serve as a native genealogy for the New Literature Movement, it overlooked the crucial role of guwen (“ancient-style prose,” a term which denoted the everyday style of classical prose used in both preparing for the civil service examinations as well as the social exchange of letters, gravestone inscriptions, and other occasional prose forms among the literati) in early modern literary culture. This dissertation revises that narrative by showing how a diverse range of social actors used anthologies of ancient-style prose to build new forms of literary knowledge and shape new literary publics.
