課程介紹
This course focuses on the representations of Taiwanese culture in Taiwanese theatre and film after the lifting of martial law in 1987. It is to introduce the diverse facets of Taiwanese culture in theatre and film, and also to propel students to reflect on how the post-martial law Taiwan re-defined and re-moulded Taiwanese identity in East Asian perspectives. What is Taiwanese culture? How is it performed and displayed? What sort of negotiation and resistance happened between those theatrical and cinematic works and Taiwanese context? Combining analysis of theatre and film with cultural research, this course tends to encourage students to reflect on those questions and develop further understanding of modern Taiwanese culture and society with a broader perspective. Independent and critical thinking is highly emphasised in this course, and the ability of intellectual discussion and presentation will be trained intensively throughout this course.
