如果說文化一詞廣義而言指的是人類的生活方式,那麼文化研究則是研究一切和人類生活有關的活動,從一切能夠加上「文化」的名詞,如:大眾文化、青少年文化、流行文化,到各種議題,如:性別、空間、媒體,都是文化研究涵蓋的範圍。從這樣的觀點出發,文化研究的探討的對象幾乎就是一切與人有關的事物,而翻閱有關文化研究的書籍,也能立即發現文化研究所碰觸到的議題之廣泛,即使各家學者對於文化研究的特徵的見解各有不同,但文化研究是跨學科(transdisciplinary)或是多學科(multi-disciplinary)的特性則是各學者都會強調的部分。根據上述的文化研究的特徵,本課程的主要內容有以下兩個部分:
第一部份:介紹文化研究的重要理論取向。
第二部分:聚焦於文化研究所關注的議題,以及這些議題的研究如何進行。
透過在課程中各個理論的介紹與各種研究成果的展現,期待學生能夠對於文化研究如何進行有一定的認識;再透過本課程的實作,進而將自己習得的各項知識與理論內容與自己所感興趣的議題與理論結合,發展出自己觀看與分析事物獨特的視角。
If the word culture refers to the human lifestyle in a broad sense, then cultural research is to study all activities related to human life. From all terms that can be added with "culture", such as: general culture, adolescent culture, popular culture, to various topics, such as: gender, space, and media, they are all the scope of cultural research. From this perspective, the object of cultural research exploration is almost everything that is related to people. By looking through books on cultural research, you can immediately find the wide range of issues encountered by the Institute of Culture. Even if students of different schools have different views on the characteristics of cultural research, the characteristics of cultural research that are transdisciplinary or multi-disciplinary are part of the emphasis of all students. According to the above characteristics of cultural research, the main contents of this course include the following two parts:
Part 1: Introducing the important theoretical orientation of cultural research.
Part 2: Focus on the topics that are concerned by the Institute of Culture and how these topics are studied.
Through the introduction of various theoretical discussions and the presentation of various research results in the course, we hope that students can have a certain understanding of how cultural research is carried out; and through the implementation of this course, we will combine the various knowledge and theoretical contents with the issues that we are interested in with theoretical discussions, and develop our own unique perspective of viewing and analyzing things.
This course introduces students to the major theories s that underline and are involved in Cultural Studies. This includes Marxism, feminism, postcolonial theory, critical race theory, structuralism, post structuralism, psychoanalysis, and queer theory. In addition to these theories, students will be introduced to key concepts in the field: culture, hegemony, ideology, articulation, discourse, imperialism, globalization, cosmopolitanism, identity, subjectivity, the unconscious, the state,orientalism,and so on. Students are required to write two critical essays, keep a weekly observations journal, conduct two group research projects and participate weekly discussions and complete readings as assigned. Attendance is mandatory.
