對于泰山皮影희德個案考察 = A case Study on Mountain Tai Shadow play

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Mountain Tai Shadow Play is kind of folk art originated in the area around Mountain Tai in Shandong Province. In June 2008, it was packed with the other 11 kinds of shadow plays, such as Beijing Shadow Play, Hejian Shadow Play and Xiuyan Shadow Play, etc. into one cultural item namely Shadow Play and entered the first batch of the Expanded Inventory of National Intangible Cultural Heritage. (NO, IV-91) Against the fact that this art is dying, there is very rare research about it yet. From Dec. 2007, I started to know the only inheritor of this art Mr. Fan ZhengAn and did interviews with him for a few times, which is the basis of this paper. This paer tries to demonstrate the uniqueness of this tradition through working on the following three aspects: Firstly, to define the historical evolution, the main characteristics as well as the contemporary living status of Mountain Tai Shadow Play under the local context; Secondly, to explore the training process of an apprentice to become a qualified artist; thirdly. to argue that the tradition of Mountain Tai Shadow keeps growing rather than perishing through a dynamic mechanism of innovation and the ardent efforts of the artist.
