| Abstract: | 親人的死亡對任何一個人來說都是一個很難釋懷的經驗。在台灣，面對親人死亡的議題，是個圍繞著靜默、隱藏情緒以及只能對家屬表露的複雜過程。
這篇論文是一篇根據Eric Chan的死亡個案研究，Eric Chang 是筆者的親友以及學生。這篇研究提供研究框架從一個外國的觀點來瞭解台灣人如何處理他們親人的死亡議題。這研究描述台灣社會加諸在其家族成員的預測行為以及描繪台灣人直至今日是如何毫無任何質疑地去遵循部分傳統與信仰。
這篇論文回顧文化衝擊傳統，例如在下葬前仍長期保存死者的大體，大部分台灣家庭必須為死者舉行某些儀式來使亡者的"來生"完整，在他人面前保有面子及以及在先人的面前遵守承諾等。
此研究揭露台灣人遵守他們的眾多傳統並非依據他們的宗教信仰而是主要依據儒家思想強調子孫應盡孝道的義務。
The death of a loved one is an experience hard to understand and difficult to manage for any person in any society. In Taiwan, dealing with the death of a loved one, is a complex process surrounded with strict silence, hidden feelings and utter privacy shared only with the closest family members.
This thesis is a Case Study based on the events that followed the death of Eric Chang, who was a close friend and student of the researcher. This research will provide a framework to understand how Taiwanese people deal with the death of their loved ones from a foreign perspective. The study also gives a description of the expected behavior that the Taiwanese society tacitly imposes onto their members and portrays how Taiwanese people, even in modern times, follow some traditions and beliefs without questioning them.
This thesis reviews cultural shocking traditions such as keeping the body of the decease for long periods before burial; and mentions some rituals that most Taiwanese families must preform as a way to accomplish an ‘afterlife’ for the deceased, saving “face” in front of others and undertaking their duties to their ancestors.
This research discloses that Taiwanese people follow many of their traditions not based on their religious beliefs but mainly guided by the principles of Confusions philosophy that emphasizes their duty as good filial sons or/and daughters. |
