"節慶活動之於傳統民間社會，不僅是日常生活勞碌工作下的難得休閒時間，更是小民百姓文化表現之重要展示舞臺。尤其，節慶活動的多樣化與多元化，體現各地民情風俗之特殊性與異質性，而促成節慶活動產生與型塑其外觀樣態之背後推動力，更顯現當時民間社會一定水準的物質條件、社會凝聚，以及政府當局相當程度的權力運作。本計畫著眼於日治時期基隆民間社會的節慶活動，當時此種活動依舉行時間先後，主要有五，即漳人地域神信仰的奠濟宮（農曆二月）、海神媽祖信仰的慶安宮（農曆四月）、日人神祇信仰的神社（國曆六月）、普度亡者性質的中元祭（農曆七月）、以及護國城隍信仰的城隍廟（農曆八月）。這些廟會活動有屬漢人、日人之不同信仰者，有供奉陽神、陰靈之不同性質者，顯現異族政權統治下的基隆，其民間社會之多樣性與複雜性。本計畫欲以節慶活動為分析主軸，觀察日治時期基隆民間社會的漢人地方領袖，與日本殖民政府的統治力量，是如何透過這些不同類型的節慶活動而彼此接觸、互動與糾葛、影響。尤其值得注意的是，隱身於熱鬧歡娛的節慶活動背後，實涉及深刻複雜的民間力量（漢人）與政府力量（日人）之角力運作，社會動員和政治參與的企圖目的。而經由如此課題之分析探究，或可自另一角度掌握日治時期基隆民間社會之真實樣態與確切面貌，以呈現較完整而全面的歷史圖像。""Festival activities in Chinese folk society is not a rare leisure time during the busy working in daily life, but also a stage to show what is the culture of folk people. Above all, the variety and multiformity of the festival activities represent the speciality and difference of local customs in every place. The force behind the producing of the festival activities and shaping its outlook, much presenting the material standard of the folk society, the mobilization of social power, and the power-using process of the government. This plan focuses on the folk society festival activities in Keelung during Colonial Taiwan period. At that time, the more important festival activities are five, according to the time order that activities took place, namely the belief of local God Kai-zhang-sheng-wang in Dian-ji-gong(Lunar February), the belief of sea Goddess Mazu in Qing-an-gong(Lunar April), the belief of Japanese God in Shrine(National calendar June), the nature of saving all with mercy in Mid-summer Ghost Festival(Lunar July), and the belief of protecting city God in Chen-huang Temple(Lunar August). These local festival activities are different in nature which belong to Chinese belief and Japanese belief, or God belief or spirit belief, that appeared the diversity and complexity of Keelung’s folk society during Colonial Taiwan Period. This project trying to analyze these festival activities in order to observed the relationship between Chinese local leaders and Japanese government in Keelung during Colonial Taiwan Period. We want to understand how they contact, interact and interfere, impact with each other. Especially, the back of living and joy festival activities, there are very complicated power operation between Chinese folk society and Japanese government force, the ambition and goal of social mobilization and political participation. I believe that if we can study this subject in the way that I narrate above, we can realize the folk society in Keelung completely and wholly during Colonial Taiwan Period."
