Abstract:
Ce travail porte sur l'analyse du systeme verbal de deux langues aborigenes du nord-ouest australien, le bardi et le bunuba. Les verbes bunuba et bardi ont une structure morpho-syntaxique commune. Ils possedent un systeme d'affixes personnels qui indicient les actants de la phrase, des marqueurs de temps/mode et aspect, de reflechi/reciproque, etc. Une caracteristique essentielle de ces systemes verbaux est l'existence de verbes complexes. Le verbe complexe est constitue de deux elements, le preverbe et la base verbale, dont la combinaison constitue une unite verbale. Le preverbe contient l'information semantique du verbe ; la base verbale est constituee d'un morpheme central qui joue le role de classificateur, autour duquel s'agregent les affixes evoques ci-dessus. Malgre l'existence de cette structure complexe commune, le bunuba et le bardi ne partagent pas un systeme verbal absolument identique. Les verbes bunuba sont toujours complexes, alors que la classe verbale bardi est composee pour deux tiers de verbes complexes et un tiers de verbes simples, constitues de la base verbale seule, sans preverbe. Notre analyse du verbe prend en compte les dimensions morpho-syntaxiques et semantiques. L'etude du verbe de chaque langue est constituee de trois parties : (i) une description des elements constitutifs de la base verbale ; (ii) une analyse semantique du systeme classificateur ; (iii) une reflexion sur la nature de l'element preverbal. L'analyse du systeme classificateur est au centre de cette etude. La classification verbale distingue des types d'actions, qui dependent principalement du rapport entre un mouvement et une cible. La valeur du classificateur se deduit de l'ensemble des verbes avec lesquels il est utilise. Cette valeur est liee a des parametres semantiques, mais elle peut avoir des repercussions syntaxiques. Apres avoir presente successivement les deux systemes verbaux, nous proposons une synthese comparative afin de souligner les similitudes et les differences qui seront apparues au cours de l'etude
Bardi and bunuba are two languages spoken in the kimberley region of north western australia. They share a complex verb system, typical of the australian verb prefixing languages. The verbal base carries affixes for person, tense/mode/aspect, reflexive/recirpocal, etc ; the preverb carries most of the semantic information, while the central morpheme on the verbal base works as a classifier. Bunuba verbal system is only made of complex verbs, whereas bardi has both complex and simple verbs. Simple verbs are made of the verbal base only. In that case the morpheme at the centre of the verbal base becomes the semantic verbal root. This study describes the three constituants of the verb. It offers a morpho-syntactic analysis of the verbal base ; the analysis ot the classifiying system, and then of the preverb. The verbal system of bardi is described first, followed by bunuba. This study also has a comparative perspective. The comparison of the verbal bases is included in the chapter describing the bunuba verbal base. The comparison of the classifying system figures as the concluding chapter of the study

Abstract:
In this study I investigate the spectrum of authoring, publishing and everyday reading of three texts - My Place (Morgan 1987), Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance (Pedersen and Woorunmurra 1995) and Carpentaria (Wright 2006). I have addressed this study within the field of production and consumption, utilising amongst others the work of Edward Said (1978, 1983) and Stanley Fish (1980). I locate this work within the holism of Kombu-merri philosopher, Mary Graham's 'Aboriginal Inquiry' (2008), which promotes self-reflexivity and a concern for others as central tenets of such inquiry. I also locate this work within a postcolonial framework and in recognition of the dynamic nature of that phenomenon I use Aileen MoretonRobinson's (2003) adoption of the active verb, "postcolonising"(38). In apprehending selected texts through the people who make them and who make meaning from them - authors, publishers and everyday readers, I interviewed members of each cohort within a framework that recognises the exercise of agency in their respective practices as well as the socio-historical contexts to such textual practices. Although my research design can be applied to other critical arrangements of texts, my interest here lies principally in texts that incorporate the subjects of Indigenous worldview and Indigenous experience; and in texts that are Indigenous authored or Indigenous co-authored.

Abstract:
Examensarbetet undersökte i första hand vilket intresse invandrarelever visar för icketext bundna NO hemuppgifter. Ett annat syfte var att undersöka hur föräldrarna upplevde det att hjälpa sina barn att göra hemuppgifter och vad klassläraren tyckte om detta arbetssätt. Fem av sju valda elever i årskurs 7 utförde en hemuppgift med föräldrarna och redovisade sedan hemuppgiften i klassen. Eleverna och klassläraren intervjuades omkring hemuppgiften. Tre av fem föräldrar svarade på en enkät om hemuppgiften. Resultatet visar att eleverna inte visade stort intresse. Det verkar som om hemuppgiftens innehåll och utformning hade stor betydelse för att fånga elevernas intresse och förmodligen också för att möjliggöra föräldrarnas medverkan. Två av föräldrarna trodde eventuellt att deras kunskap i naturvetenskap testas av hemuppgiften. De flesta eleverna gjorde hemuppgiften med föräldrarna på svenska istället för sitt hemspråk. Detta betyder kanske att halvspråkighetsproblem bland infödda invandrarelever är fortfarande aktuell.Klassläraren blev nyfiken på detta arbetssätt och tänker prova det i framtiden.

Abstract:
Isbukun, a major dialect of Bunun, is one of the Austronesian languages spoken in Taiwan. According to the Taiwan government statistics in 2009, Bunun had a population of 51,447, around half of which were registered as Isbukun. As Mandarin and Southern Min are the predominant languages, the Austronesian languages in Taiwan including Bunun are endangered. This study investigates word stress in Isbukun Bunun from the perspective of Optimality Theory. In particular, the stress patterns of monomorphemic and compound words, derivational and inflectional suffixed words, and words with clitics are explored. In Isbukun Bunun, a single quantity-sensitive trochee formed at the right edge of a word. Consequently, prefixation is generally irrelevant to footing, whereas suffixation closely interacts with stress placement. This paper presents two types of extrametricality along with quantitative adjustment that are found in suffixed words. Morphological extrametricality prevents inflectional suffixes and clitics from being footed and thereby prosodically distinguishes derivation and compounds from inflection and clitics. Positional extrametricality avoids forming a foot at the left edge of a root, which only emerges in derivational words, because inflectional words are required to fulfill morphological extrametricality first. In addition, since feet are constructed at the end of a word and derivational suffixes are allowed to be footed, quantitative changes take place in derivational suffixation: adjacent vowels with the same quality merge into one when two vowels come from different morphemes (i.e. the final segment of the stem and the initial segment of the suffix), and moras are deleted if otherwise the number of syllables in a word would increase. To account for the morphological extrametricality, a pair of output-output faithfulness constraints are used: a higher ranked OO-IDENT(stress)INF with an index referring to inflectional suffixes and clitics, and a lower ranked clone OO-IDENT(stress) without an index. The constraint ranking OO-IDENT(stress)INF >> ALL-FT-R >> OO-IDENT(stress) generates inflectional words with stress on the same syllable as in their stems, while derivational words follow general footing principles. As for the positional extrametricality, an anti-alignment constraint *ALIGN-L(Root, FT) is proposed, which concerns positions of feet only with respect to the root, rather than the stem that may be polymorphemic. The constraint ranking OO-IDENT(stress)INF, DEP-μ >> *ALIGN-L(Root, FT) >> *STRUC-σ confines the emergence of non-initiality in derivational words with roots not smaller than two moras.

Abstract:
This essay explored gendered embodiement within the practice of kinbaku, also called shibari or Japanese rope bondage. The research has been done within the Swedish kinbaku community using ethnographic methods consisting of interviews with practitioners of kinbaku and complete participation observations. By using phenomenology of touch as a methodological and theoretical approach together with theories of somatechnics the intimate experiences and relationships practitioners have to kinbaku, the practice of rope bondage can be understood as processes of embodiement through affect, sensation and technology. By using this understanding of kinbaku questions are asked about how these embodied positions are gendered and further what possibilities, restrictions and potential of renegotiating these positions are embedded within the practice.

Yang, Shu-Yuan. "Coping with marginality : the Bunun in contemporary Taiwan." Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 2001. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/1631/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with how the Bunun, an Austronesian speaking indigenous people of Taiwan, deal with changing historical conditions brought about mainly, but not solely, by colonialism. I explore how the Bunun engage and negotiate with the state, the Han-Chinese and Christianity; how a colonised people like the Bunun sustain an active role in their relationships with powerful others; and how they 'cope' with - read, endure, work through, break apart and transcend - the predicaments of marginality. I do not approach these questions by reconstructing a bounded Bunun tradition, and see how this tradition is influenced and transformed by the impact of external forces. Instead, I examine the subtle and complex ways in which the past, the state, and the Bunun culture itself are constructed in the present. I also criticize the romanticized notion of resistance which has dominated the studies of marginality, and the implicit assumption that we can only find the agency of the colonized under the rubric of resistance. Rather, I explore the various possible ways in which the Bunun can create 'agentive moments', a shift in the sense of oneself being acted upon by the world to a subject acting upon the world, for themselves. In attempting to understand how the Bunun can play an active role in making and transforming the world in which they live, I do not forget that their effort may fail and at times they experience themselves as powerless, displaced and lost. To exclude or erase such experiences is to adopt an anodyne view of history which denies the violent and destructive aspects of colonialism. The studies of death and the decline of spirit mediumship demonstrate vividly how the Bunun cope with the loss of life and power, and how such experiences contribute to the ways in which they understand and comment on their own existence at a particular historical moment. By taking into serious account the sense of powerlessness, loss, and displacement, I aim to convey the affective qualities of the Bunun's living experience which give the sense of a period, that is, what Raymond Williams (1977) calls 'structures of feeling'. I suggest that 'structures of feeling' are powerful expressions and evocations of how the Bunun experience the history of their colonisation, which give shape to local historical consciousness.

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo analisar a paródia e suas nuances. Através do confronto entre os personagens Jaime Bunda, da obra Jaime Bunda, o agente secreto do escritor angolano Pepetela; e James Bond, personagem das obras homônimas de Ian Fleming, no sentido de analisar como os dois personagens se entrecruzam por meio das linhas da teoria paródica. Pepetela, no seu romance, traz uma crítica ácida às condições de Angola pós-revolução utilizando-se da paródia e, também, ao parodiar James Bond com seu Jaime Bunda desconstrói o arquétipo do homem ideal, encarnado em Bond e jamais apresentado em Bunda. Nesse sentido, a paródia será decisiva para o entendimento do verso e reverso da medalha, como veremos, ao longo deste trabalho, ao confrontar os dois agentes, Bond e Bunda se distanciarem e, paradoxalmente, se alinharem, tornando-se uno nas suas histórias.
This dissertation aims to analyze the parody and its nuances. Through the confrontation between the characters Jaime Bunda, at Pepetela`s book Jaime Bunda, Secret Agent; and James Bond, and James Bond, the character of Ian Fleming\'s homonymous works to analyze how the two characters intersect through the lines of parody theory. Pepetela, in his novel, brings an acid criticism to the post-revolution conditions of Angola using the parody, and while parodying James Bond with his Jaime Bunda deconstructs the archetype of the ideal man, embodied in Bond and never presented in Bunda. In this sense, the parody will be decisive for the understanding of the verse and the reverse of the medal, as we will see, throughout this work, when confronting the two agents, Bond and Bunda distance themselves and, paradoxically, align themselves, becoming one in their stories.

Abstract:
The aim of this study is to examine to which degree Swedish news media reported about food consumption during the coronavirus pandemic 2020 and how it was framed. The coronavirus pandemic caused several countries to shut down and citizens consuming behaviour started to change into purchasing more food and household supplies than usual. Pictures of empty shelves and consumers with full shopping carts were published on social media. The pictures eventually made the news in Sweden and several newspapers wrote about the risk of food and household supplies running out in stores due to citizens stacking up. The methods used in this study was a quantitative and qualitative analysis. The study used the theories agenda setting, framing and news value to examine 93 articles about the food consumption in Sweden's four biggest newspapers. These were Aftonbladet, Dagens Nyheter, Expressen and Svenska Dagbladet. The study examined the time frame between 26 February - 25 March 2020, which was when the spreading of the coronavirus increased in Sweden. The results showed that the Swedish news media reported in different ways. Some news articles presented the lack of food and households supplies while other news articles said that there was no risk of food and households supply running out. Despite this the news media mainly framed the news in an alarming and fear/scaremongering way.

Full text
Abstract:
In north Western Australia, records of palaeoenvironmental change are scarce or under explored, particularly terrestrial archives that allow for comparison with the archaeological record and examination of human-environment interaction in the past. The extent to which these records reflect localised vegetation responses to climate fluctuations, and the manner in which people adapted to these changes in climate and vegetation, has yet to be investigated within the context of stratified archaeological inquiry. Analysis of archaeobotanical proxies excavated in association with other cultural remains provide the obvious evidential link to this issue; however, archaeobotany is rarely applied in Australian archaeology due to a lack of application of appropriate field techniques, limited reference collections, and the poor preservation of organic remains. This research, which is part of the ARC Linkage Project: Lifeways of the First Australians, investigates human-environment interaction using archaeobotanical techniques at two sites in the Kimberley region of northern Western Australia: Riwi and Mount Behn rockshelter, during the late Quaternary. Located on the edge of the Great Sandy Desert in Gooniyandi country, Riwi has a discontinuous occupation sequence of about 45 ka, while Mount Behn rockshelter, located some 180 km northwest of Riwi in Bunuba country, has an occupation sequence of ~3 ka. Anthracology (wood charcoal), palynology (pollen and spores), and wood identification using X-ray microtomography are used alongside other research from the Lifeways Project to reconstruct vegetation, investigate humanenvironment interaction, and explore the taphonomy and representativeness of the different proxy data sets. The findings from each site are then located within a regional narrative of human-environment interaction.

Thorburn, Kathryn Ellen. "'Indigenous governance' and Aboriginal political practice: The gulf between in two organisations in the Fitzroy Valley, West Kimberley." Phd thesis, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/1885/10205.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis sets out to explore the gulf between prescriptions relating to Indigenous organisations as articulated in the Indigenous governance discourse in Australia, and the actual political practice of Aboriginal people. It is based on fieldwork carried out in two organisations, one in the Kimberley town of Fitzroy Crossing, and one based around five communities some 100kms to the town’s east. The study crosses three disciplines, anthropology, history and politics, in its attempt to describe and analyse the political and personal dynamics at play in the two organisations. By examining two organisations, the thesis is able to show the difference that can exist between different Aboriginal groups and their forms of political expression. To make sense of such diversity, it argues that, in the first instance, due consideration must be given to post-colonial histories. These histories are concerned with the nature of first contact with non-Indigenous ‘settlers’, and the subsequent violence and dispersal that followed. They track the decades of Aboriginal groups working on pastoral stations of the Fitzroy Valley, and the way in which some groups were able to stay on their traditional country during this time, while others were not. The dynamics around the Pastoral Award decision of 1968, which saw the vast majority of Aboriginal people in the area move off the stations and into town, are also crucial. The years that followed saw a big push for a return to country for many Aboriginal groups across the Kimberley, and the establishment of Aboriginal organisations. The thesis argues that in order to understand contemporary political practice in the organisations of 2005, it is necessary to read them in terms of their historical narrative, in which particular groups were able to consolidate certain elements of common identity. The thesis gives considerable attention to the ethnographic underpinnings of these commonalities, and draws out both similarities and differences between how the constituents of the two organisations were in some contexts connected, in others separated. Connections to country, and kin relationships, are shown to have the potential to be both inclusive and exclusive, depending on broader contexts. Rather than demonstrating chaos and dysfunctionality, the thesis argues that these elements combine to produce a particular political rationality that is sensible and necessary. To argue this point, a series of vignettes is relayed for each organisation which serve to reveal how the dynamics of Aboriginal history and group identity play out. They also demonstrate how the impact of contemporary Australian government policies that overlay and interact with these dynamics are very destabilising. This however has not always been the case, as is evidenced by the very positive relationship between government agents and Aboriginal people in the Valley in the 80s, the era when many local organisations were being established. The main body of the thesis then is given over to making sense of contemporary political practice in the two organisations. However it also questions the value of the Indigenous governance discourse in Australia an as analytical or descriptive tool, and concludes that it is not especially good for either. Rather, it is argued that the Indigenous governance discourse needs to be read as part of broader shifts to the right in Australian political economy, and ideology. It adopts Rose’s ideas of governmentality in investigating how the Indigenous governance discourse operates as a technology for social and political reform, and relates how Indigenous groups continue to resist in novel ways these external forces of assimilation. It also suggests that the Indigenous governance discourse has contributed significantly to the erosion of the Aboriginal institutional landscape across Australia. It concludes that as a discourse that emerged from a policy environment recoiling from the value of social difference, it is doomed to managerial dullness and apolitical inaccuracy.

This study investigates the grammatical realizations of adverbial modifiers in Takituduh Bunun, one of the Austronesian languages spoken in central and southern Taiwan. It is found that epistemic adverbials such as possibly may be realized as modals in their syntactic projections, while manner adverbials such as quickly may occur in a position lower than the VoiceP. In other words, adverbials with wider scope of modification normally occupy higher structural positions. The fact that grammatical behaviors of Takituduh adverbials are largely attributable to their semantic functions suggests the strong correlation between semantic and syntactic facets of the language. Two aberrant phenomena pertaining to Takituduh adverbial constructions have been discussed in this study. For one thing, temporal adverbials which are deficient in argument structures can take patient-focus markers; for the other, in some mono-clausal adverbial constructions such as mistakenly, lexical verbs are able to take instrumental/beneficiary focus markers. Most of the current theories fail to account for the aforementioned findings because the focus system is assumed to be simply an inflectional or a lexical category. Therefore, this study adopts the split VoiceP hypothesis proposed by H. Chang (2008) and argues that, in line with Tsou—another Austronesian language—Takituduh non-actor focus construction may be comprised of two layers of projections, namely, voice and applicative, whereas its actor focus counterpart lacks the applicative projection. The fundamental concept is that the lower applicative head first triggers the movement of an oblique argument in its c-commanding domain to its specifier position, and the higher voice head subsequently triggers the movement of this applied object to the grammatical subject position. Adverbial stacking and prefix copy are also addressed in this study. It is found that epistemic adverbials must precede all other adverbials, while manner adverbials can only occur after other types of adverbials in terms of linear ordering. With regard to prefix copy, it has been verified that the copy domain in Takituduh is limited within AspectP. This study further argues that the head-movement analysis of prefix copy is untenable in Takituduh, because the multiple copy spell-out is left unexplained and the Relativized Minimality (Rizzi 1990) is not observed. On the contrary, this study suggests that Takituduh lexical prefixes in prefix copy constructions are more likely verb class markers based-generated in functional projections and serve to delimit the range of verb types.

This study aims to investigate the comparative constructions in Isbubukun Bunun. Based on our investigations in the field and some texts, we ascertain that there are six different types, to wits, the ‘-ka’ type, the ‘-staan’ type, the ‘ka-…-un’ type, the ‘ki-…-an’ type, the event comparison, and the ‘masi-’ type. The theoretical framework we adopt in the present study is Comparison and Universal Grammar by Leon Stassen (1985). According to Stassen (1985), case assignment plays a substantial part in his model. Meanwhile, we also use criteria brought up by Chang (2006) to examine the comparative constructions in Isbubukun in terms of its syntactic behavior, especially regarding the serial verb construction. As far as our finding is concerned, they can be depicted as follows: (a) As far as Bunun language is concerned, this is the first study in this regard. (b) There are six comparative types found in Isbubukun. (c) Semantically, ‘-ka’ type comparative denotes slightly and the ‘-staan’ comparative type carries grandly in a sense of degree. (d) The ‘ka-…-un’ comparative type must appear in a structure with three participants. (e) The ‘ki-…-an’ type has much to do with comparison of height. (f) ‘Masi-’ type is used to express the comparison of age. (g) They all can undergo topicalization. (h) All of them behave more like predicates than adverbials. (i) Except ‘ki…--an’ type and ‘masi-’ type, the rest four types can be classified as exceed type. As for the categorization of ‘ki-…-an’ type and ‘masi-’ and related issues, we leave them for tomorrow discussion.

This dissertation is a reference grammar of Isbukun Bunun, spoken in the Dongpu village, Hsinyi Township, Nantou County. Isbukun is a language with rich morphology, whereby lexical prefixes and morphological processes are productive. Like most of the Formosan languages, Isbukun is predicate-initial. Case markers are omittable in Isbukun, and the order of arguments is quite important. The order of two free arguments in a canonical declarative clause is basically the actor preceding other arguments. There is a two-way voice system in Isbukun, actor voice (AV) vs. undergoer voice (UV), with the UV sub-divided into three voices (UVP, UVL, and UVC). An AV verb in Isbukun can be transitive or intransitive; a UV verb is never intransitive. This dissertation consists of fourteen chapters. Chapter 1 introduces the Bunun language, population, and the areas where this language is spoken; the background on the Isbukun dialect is also provided. Besides, the aim of this study and the methodology are also stated in chapter 1. Chapter 2 discusses Isbukun phonology and phonological processes. Morphological units and morphological processes like affixation and reduplication are addressed in chapter 3. Chapter 4 introduces word classes in Isbukun. Nominal morphology and verbal morphology are investigated in chapter 5 and chapter 6 respectively. Chapter 7 and chapter 8 deal with valency-adjusting operations, including causativity, reciprocity, and reflexivity. Chapter 9 focuses on noun phrase structures. Syntax of pronouns is discussed in chapter 10. Chapter 11 and chapter 12 inspect clause types and negative clauses respectively. Complex sentences, consisting of complementation, subordination, and conjunction, are examined in Chapter 13. The final chapter concludes this study and also talks about its contributions.

The purpose of this study is merely a work to determine the rules of lexical and phonetic change from language evolution according to the neologism applications of Bunun dialect-Takituduh. For the part of lexical change, the classifications of neologism from Bunun dialect-Takituduh was analyzed. For this specific dialect, the mechanisms to create neologism based on its word-formation rules was studied. Additionally, the phonetic change was also evaluated by employing phonologic contrastive analysis to determine the rules of phonetic substitution in the loan word of neologism. In most cases of neologism, it is filled in the required concepts to an originally word that lacking the indications using lexical borrowing. According to this study on lexical borrowing in Bunun dialect-Takituduh, it is beneficial to discern the approaches/adaptation for a language to feasibly convert to another language in general daily applications of Bunun dialect-Takituduh. Meanwhile, in the process of neologism formation, except to employ the word-formation rules, it is evident that deploying cognitive structure of mindset for creating new concepts in language is also feasible. For this reason, it also possible for existed morpheme to use metaphor to enrich language itself. By employing cognitive metaphor, this study analyzed the thinking for metaphor in the process of word-formation of neologism in Bunun dialect-Takituduh.

This paper aims to explore the categorial status of the so-called the LINKER/ LIGATURE tu in Isbukun Bunun and the related syntactic phenomena. Linker is quite common in Formosan languages and even in Austronesian languages. Tu and its allomorphic variation a is generally called the linker in the literature; yet no one has ever discussed its categorial status so far. We try to provide a unified assumption under the framework of Generative Grammar (Chomsky1981, 1995, 2001 among others) and based on cross-linguistic data that the so-called the linker tu in Bunun actually has only one main grammatical function, COMPLEMENTATION MARKER (CM), which marks the complementation between a head and its complement ([XP X tu [YPCOMPLENT]]) and is syntactically realized as Complementation marker (CM) as the DP-and IP-Complementation marker, Indefinite oblique marker (INDF) as the VP-Complementation marker, and Complementizer (COMP) as the CP-Complementation marker: 1. Tu, as CM, occurs inside DP and IP/TP, indicating the complementation between Head and Complement, i.e. DEM and NumP, NUM and NP, NEG and VoiceP/vP, ADV and VoiceP/vP. 2. Tu, as INDF, precedes NumP or indefinite non-specific nominals, indicating the complementation between Head and Complement inside VP, i.e. between a lexical verb and its Theme argument. 3. Tu, as COMP, occurs with clausal complements, wh-questions or relative clauses and clause-types them via corresponding features and syntactic mechanism.

This thesis aims to explore the clitics in Isbukun Bunun spoken in Nantou. Chapter 1 presents the geographical distribution, voice/case systems, and case-marking paradigms of Isbukun. Chapter 2 provides the theoretical accounts with respect to clitic ordering and placement. Chapter 3 then discusses the relative order among various postverbal bound elements in Isbukun. Chapter 4 demonstrates the placement of these bound elements relative to the clause with a preverbal element and establishes whether they are clitics. Finally, chapter 5 concludes this thesis, where any unexpected findings are discussed. This thesis reports that in Nantou Isbukun Bunun short personal pronouns and T(emporal)A(spectual)E(vidential) markers are clitics by using morphosyntactic and phonological evidence. Clitics are classified into two main kinds: phrasal and head-adjacent. In Isbukun both kinds of clitics are found. With respect to their placement, on the one hand, these clitics are positioned postverbally in verb-initial clauses. The cluster-internal ordering among these postverbal elements is with the aspectual clitics preceding the evidential clitic, itself preceding pronominal clitics; the relative ordering of two postverbal pronominal clitics is determined by not only semantic roles, but also grammatical relations (or morphological cases). On the other hand, only the subject (or nominative-case) clitic pronoun can be attracted to preverbal position in a negated clause.

This thesis aims to provide a preliminary description of the phonology, lexicon, and syntax of Takibakha, one of the Northern dialects of Bunun. Takibakha Bunun has 16 consonants and 5 vowels. A significant finding is that Takibakha has five phonemic vowels (/i, e, a, o, u/), rather than three as claimed in previous studies. In the discussion of lexicon, two topics, numerals and temporal expressions are covered. Takibakha numerals are divided into cardinal, indefinite, limitative, multiplicative, fractional, distributive, and ordinal. Temporal expressions are divided into specific time expressions and deictic expressions. As for syntax, I discuss construction markers (including case marking system, personal pronouns, deictic expressions, and ligatures), basic properties of clauses (including word order, the structure of nominal and verbal clauses, and more specifically, focus, aspect, and mood), and four types of clauses (including adverbial, reciprocal, interrogative, and negative clauses) in Takibakha. The following observations are made in the discussion of Takibakha syntax. First, I argue for the occurrence of two case markers in Takibakha: (C)a and (C)i, rather than one as claimed in previous studies. These two markers are used to mark nominative and oblique cases, respectively. Second, I observe that third person pronouns behave like demonstratives rather than first and second person pronouns. Third, I observe the occurrence of five focuses, rather than four, in Takibakha. The fifth focus is marked by ʔis-…-an, which is used to indicate beneficiary focus.

In order to investigate the hunting status, usage of hunting tools, hunting yields, and difference of hunting status between generations, this study applied participation observations, depth interviews, questionnaires, and hunting information collected by indigenous people. Danda area is abundant in wildlife and natural resources, therefore, Forestry bureau is now planning the hunting activities by the indigenous people because hunters’ attitudes towards the usage of tools and their preferences for animals have direct impacts on wildlife resources. The subjects of this study were hunters in Dili, JenHo, ShuangLong and TanNan, and were active in hunting in the past 5 years. From 2004 to 2007, I interviewed 169 hunters(263 times)and observed 12 hunting trips(39 hunters). They used 3 hunting methods including shotguns, snares, and hunting dogs. All hunters used shotguns and 32% of the hunters used snares. They used different kinds of shotguns including traditional home-made rifles(98%),and the powder of trim refit the HILTI shotgun (45%). From September 2006 to March 2007, a total of 1088 animals were hunted by using shotguns, and flying squirrels were the most (72%). 66 animals were snared, and muntjacs were the most(41%). 42 animals were hunted by dog chasing, and wild boars were the most(57%). Most hunters shot the animals at sight regardless of species. The reason prohibiting their shooting was the capacity limits of backpack. Tradition and taboos had smaller effects on their motives, and they still shot rare animals. In participation observations, 58% of the animals could be shot when seen by hunters. They shot 85% of the animals chosen, and the shooting average was 70%. 73% of the shot animals were obtained.There were significantly more HILTI shotgun users among young hunters than in old and middle-aged hunters (p<0.001.) Because hunters could use the HILTI shotguns without making gunpowder. Only 30% of the young hunters had the skill of gunpowder making, therefore, there would be an increase of young hunters using HILTI in the future.However the lethality of HILTI shotguns was low, animals could easily escape when shot by HILTI and that would lower hunting yields and increase death rates of animals. Young hunters’ hunting abilities, which include species identification in the dark, shooting average, and carrying heavy backpacks, were worse than old and middle-aged hunters. However, young hunters still shot animals regardless of the limits of their backpack sizes. The preferences of young hunters for animals were flying squirrels, muntjacs, and rabbits. All these animals were active around the village, and the hunting pressure of this area should be monitored in the future.

The thesis investigates the interrogative constructions in Isbukun Bunun spoken in Taitung Prefecture. Specifically, we focus on the construction of wh-questions and the syntactic representation of interrogative particles. We claim that Isbukun Bunun wh-questions are actually a manifestation of a pseudo-cleft structure, where the sentence-initial wh-word is a base-generated predicate, followed by a headless relative clause. Two possible analyses of the construction of Isbukun Bunun wh-questions are provided: the wh-movement/fronting analysis and cleft analysis. We argue for the cleft analysis and against the fronting analysis for the following reasons: First, wh-questions structurally parallel pseudo-clefts on the surface. Second, violation of Subjacency Condition in wh-questions proves that the sentence-initial wh-words are not derived through wh-movement as those in English. The lack of island effect can be accounted for with Generalized Control Rule. Third, in terms of the syntactic position of the irrealis marker na, the sentence-initial wh-words are characteristic of a predicate. Among the Isbukun Bunun wh-words, it is found that mavia-initiated wh-questions manifest distinct syntactic structure. Adopting Rizzi’s (1997) Split CP Hypothesis, we propose that mavia is syntactically base-generated in a higher position, namely, the [Spec, INT], compared to other wh-words. The obligatorily sentence-initial Isbukun Bunun wh-words are a ‘real exception’ to Keenan’s (1976) subject-sensitive constraint. We also propose that Isbukun Bunun interrogative particles are all base-generated at C0, bearing the strong feature [+Q] and [+EPP]. Besides, the previously studied interrogative particle adu, while co-occurring with another interrogative particle ha in yes-no questions, behaves more like a irrealis adverb. Making reference to Rizzi’s (2002) cartographic approach to the left periphery integrated with the position targeted by adverbial phrases, and Cinque’s (1999) adverbial hierarchy, we argue that adu is base-generated in the Spec of MODirrealis head in the left-peripheral domain.

As for the indigenous peoples, the present “tribe” is a place which can’t be found on the map. It is the result of that the ruler from other areas newly divided tribe area by administrative division and renamed for the purpose of elimination of the boundary line of the original ethnic groups. Thus, the tribe of indigenous peoples in Taiwan was gradually replaced by community, town and hsiang and disappeared from the map. Accordingly, the research area of this thesis- kanakanavu tribe lies in the present Sanmin Hsiang, Kaohsiung County according to the administrative division. While we choose the word “ Kanakanavu tribe” not “Sanmin Hsiang” by reason of recalling ancestors with deep emotion. Furthermore, kanakanavu was the first one to immigrate here, so this place was accustomed to be called kananavu tribe by the clansman in this tribe. This thesis shall be discussed in the following three ways: firstly, bunun, which is normally classified into the six main groups, besides the disappeared taki-pulan, there still are is-bukun, taki-banuaz, taki-vatan, taki-tode and taki-bakha. This thesis shall mainly research is-bukun, whose population was the most and range was the widest in all bunun, covering middle part (Tungpu Village, Lona Village and Mingte Village, Hsinyi Hsiang, Nantou), eastern part (all tribes in Haituan hsiang and Yenping hsiang, Taitung county) and southern part (kanakanavu tribe, Taoyuen and Sanming hsiang, kaohsiung). The settlement of Bunun was comprised of three patterns by Huang, Yingkuei. While the southern Bunun belongs to the third pattern, a new immigration area, whose settlement unit and organ haven’t been completed yet. This thesis tries to discuss the difference between bunun in Kanakanavu tribe and other bunun tribe in settlement pattern and to analyze the difference between Bunun in Kanakanavu tribe and other bunun tribes from this classification. Secondly, there lives different ethnic groups in kanakanavu tribe, including kanakanavu, bunun, saaruua, paiwan, Atayal and pud. It can be divided into two parts according to migration time. One is Kanakanavu who lived here for a long time before Japan invaded Taiwan; the other is Bunun was successively forced to move to kanakanavu tribe by Japan through intimidation and bribery in 1923. Then saaruua who united with bunun by marriage also followed to this tribe. Therefore, at the very beginning, there was only three ethnic groups in kanakanavu tribe. However, for the purpose of centralized management, Japan government gathered the ethnic groups near the three settlement patterns in the programmed Nakisaru, Magacu and Tanganuwa. While the three settlement grew out of the present three villages in the tribe ( Mintsu village, Minchuan village and Minsheng village). When national government reigned over Taiwan, land measurement was implemented in the whole Taiwan, some paiwan and Atayal also got land and successively moved here before 1957. As for pud, it can be classified into Hakka and Minnan, who came here during the reign of Japan government, and mainlanders who came Taiwan after national government reigned over Taiwan. As for these ethnic groups, the thesis intends to discuss how and why they moved here respectively. Thirdly, Ethnic Relations. It can be found that the ethnic group of kanakanavu tribe is complicated from above. While in this complicated ethnic group, it still can be seen that Bunun occupies a leading post and can control over the interactive relation of the ethnic group of kanakanava tribe, consequently, this thesis intends to discuss whether the ethnic relations of kanakanavu tribe shall bring on and affect the interactive relation of other ethnic groups owing to sensitive interpersonal relation caused by the election among the clan of Bunun, especially to discuss the influence produced by the interaction between kanakanavu tribe and kanakanavu. Besides referred to the limited literature, the thesis mostly collected the information from the statement of the aged of the native Bunun and kanakanavu etc., special stories, typical speech and folk-custom as well as witchcraft and incantation etc. and the literatures responding the psychology of the native clansman. Furthermore, I myself expect to make a fundamental and thorough knowledge of the history of the tribe I grew up many years later after I left this tribe.

This thesis investigates three different aspects of syntax, namely restructuring, applicativization and verb-initiality, under the Minimalist framework (Chomsky 2001, 2003), with special reference to Bunun, an Autronesian language spoken in Taiwan. It is found that the class of the restructuring predicates in Takibakha includes adverbial heads, aspectual verbs, part of the “subject-control” lexical verbs, including desirative and emotion verbs, but does not contain motion verbs, easy-predicates. Moreover, a morphosyntactic asymmetry on the verbal complements is observed between AV-marked and NAV-marked restructuring predicates. What is more, the restructuring complements are never fronted with the restructuring predicates and thus appear clause-finally. It is argued that the verbal complement in AV contexts is a full-fledged vP whereas the verbal complement in NAV contexts is a defective agent-less vP. This defective vP cannot value Case, which is why the lowest DO must enter into Agree relation with the upper T. Hence, restructuring actually occurs in NAV contexts only. It is proposed that the observed asymmetric applicative morphology and complementation can be captured by a more fine-grained vP, in terms of Split vP analysis, where the expletive applicative, spelled out as is-, is licensed by lower v while the other applicatives as well as the agent are licensed by Voice. It is also proposed that the verb-initial word order of this language is attributed to V-to-C (Fin0) movement. This study provides some clues to the debating linguistic issues. First, it provides supporting evidence for a split vP structure. Second, it provides new evidence against Pylkkänen’s (2008) proposed “low” applicative. Third, V raising analysis is favored over VP raising analysis in the case of Takibakha. Lastly, new evidence is offered contra Case Agreement approach proposed by Rackowski (2002) and Rackowski & Richards (2005).

This thesis aims to investigate the spatial and temporal conceptualizations by exploring the grammatical realization of spatial and temporal expressions in Isbukun Bunun, an indigenous that is mainly spoken in Mountain areas in the central part of Taiwan. Spatial expressions examined in this thesis are based on Motion events proposed by Talmy (1983, 2000a) in order to analyze the spatial conceptualization in terms of spatial semantic categories such as Path and Region. Our investigation shows locative predicates are classified into two types: one is lexical predicates used in specific Ground, the other is predicates composed of a verbal prefix, which denotes Path and the relationship between Figure and locality, and either locative marker sia to mark a place or a locative noun of Region or Direction. On the other hand, we investigated the semantic functions of temporal expression based on the classification of time words suggested by Haspelmath (1997). According to our corpus, temporal expressions in Isbukun Bunun are based on two mechanisms. First, in terms of spatial expressions, time point is marked with static predicate i-sia, whereas time span is denoted with dynamic verbal prefixes of Source and Goal. The second is to employ tense and aspect markers to indicate the relationship of two temporal events in terms of orders or temporal durations. As for how time is expressed, our evidence shows that a portion of tempo- ral expressions in Isbukun Bunun are conveyed via spatio-temporal metaphors including Moving-Time model, Moving-Ego model, and Temporal Sequence model (Evans and Green 2006), while most are fulfilled with tense and aspect markers. Thus, according to this thesis, although temporal conceptualizations to some extent relate to spatial concept, it is not necessary to conceptualize time with respect to space.

This study is a description of the Bunun tribe's story of the daily lives of women. In this study, the researcher illurstrates Bunun women’s way of growing crops and their philosophy of growth, life and child education. Adopting feminist ethnography research method, the researcher narrating her participation and observations of the daily life of Bunun tribal women since her childhood. She records the happiness, anger, sadness, joy and thoughts of those women. The researcher found that the cultural values are embedded in Bunun women’s modest attitude in the process of the cultivation of crops and their respect for life. In this research, the researcher begins her research as an outside-within the tribal women’s life. This research position gives her a new perspective to rethink the connected meanings of tribal life and education as a bunun women. By doing so, she commits herself to take actions toward making life meaningful for tribal people. She also realizes that the people’s struggle to be autonomous should be taken as a central place in the history of people’s resistance movement.

This study examines the use of traditional plants by two Bunun subgroups, the Isi-bukun and Tak-banuaz, and the connections / emotive meanings of these plants to Bunun traditional culture in order to describe and better understand the ecological wisdom and philosophies of Taiwan’s indigenous Bunun peoples. By reintroducing the conventional wisdom and philosophies of the Bunun, this study looks to extend and promote deeper appreciation of traditional Bunun aesthetics. Plants are woven inextricably into the fabric of traditional Bunun life. The names of certain plants even serve as metonyms for emotive tribal feelings about plants and nature. However, modern social values and priorities have led to declining Bunun use of traditional plants and a gradual loss of related traditional wisdom. Therefore, this study intends to analyze the traditional importance of plants to the Bunun in order to explore the tribe’s ecological wisdom, its use of plants as metaphors for emotive feelings about nature, and traditional Bunun aesthetics. By doing so, this study hopes to encourage a general reassessment of man’s relationship with the land and nature. The author further hopes to reawaken Bunun tribal memories and mores related to plants in order to encourage the further development and flowering of Bunun aesthetic life and experience. Finally, this study intends to provide an important reference on this highly significant and valuable intangible cultural heritage.

Aborigines in remote geographical areas of primary and secondary education has always been an important education in Taiwan.The influence on the study performance of Aboriginal junior high school students from their family labor background and economic situation is the research object. Nine Bunun junior high school students from Nantou county are purposive sampled to observe, interviewed and information collected. Main conclusions are as follows: 1.The Bunun students rarely take lessons at cram schools and lack of art culture background due to low income and far away from the city. 2.The Bunun students all have working experience with parents and elderly since elementary school. 3.Planning studies in the future,the Bunun students all choose to enter a sports, military and skill high school in the future. 4.In the choice of employment,the Bunun students all choose to take up a physical labor occupation instead of to work in an office due to pressure. Aboriginal students still cannot identify themselves between the Chinese culture and the Aboriginal culture when the Aboriginal schools are not an official educational system yet. Furthermore, the government policy of Aboriginal allowance and Aboriginal bonus points grade did not improve the Aboriginal students identification. On the contrast,there are many negative effects arising. To help Aboriginal students to identify themselves in the educational system, six proposals are discussed about additional Aboriginal schools, modifying Aboriginal allowance, overall planning Aboriginal bonus points grade policy, reforming school organization and lessons of Aboriginal culture, attracting teachers to the rural area and guiding Aboriginal parents to develop the community special feature. After the educational system is improved, Aboriginal students will be proud of their Aboriginal identification.

This study primarily seeks to genuinely document the oral literature currently passed on by the Lito Tribe. This study first explores the meaning and content of oral literature, and then introduces myths relating to historical customs and objects, humanities and ethics, worship culture, traditional folksongs, and traditional apparel of the Lito Tribe. Using Lito Tribe oral literature as native instructional materials through education, Bunun culture is promoted via schools so that tribal residents can understand their own culture and pass on their heritage. In order to achieve the research goals, this study used the methods of field investigation, including observation, interviews of residents, and literature verification. After summarization and analysis, the different aspects and values of Lito Bunun oral literature were discovered, making it more literary, and to serve as a reference for the preservation of Lito tribal culture. This study has six conclusions: 1. Lito Bunun oral literature is a local cultural history. 2. Lito Bunun culture is a crystallization of ancestral wisdom. 3. The preservation and transmission of Lito Bunun culture. 4. Elevation of a Lito Bunun consciousness and identification. 5. Genuine documentation and permanent preservation of Lito Bunun culture. 6.

Abstract:
Filmmaker Luis Bunuel occupies a unique position in the history of cinema: not only is Bunuel considered the definitive filmmaker associated with a major art movement--Surrealism--but he is also considered the embodiment of two national cinemas, those of Mexico and Spain. Bunuelian Surrealism actually derives from the atavistic medievalism of Spain, unique in Western Europe with its history of oppression, intolerance, persecution and specularized violence. It is a surrealism rooted in a profound sense of moral outrage, closer in spirit to the dark vision of his Aragonese predecessor, painter Francisco Goya, than to Andre Breton's Parisian inner circle. Consistent with their keen intelligence and true to their Spanishness, these Aragonese masters transcend cultural specificity with a message of universal applicability, In a resounding condemnation of mankind's victimization by the agents of sociopolitical control, they reveal the gaping abyss separating cultural cliche from the reality of human suffering.

The aim of this thesis is to study how the Bunun (taki Bulbul: live in Wulu, Taitung, Taiwan) people’s contemporary diet experiences practiced in the distinct characters space and externalize simultaneously. In addition, I will uncover how the cultural idioms work in the forming of spaces experiences besides the external factors like modern state institutional authority and capitalist market economy. Therefore, to accomplish this purpose, this thesis would be divided into three parts about the eating experience in the Bunun social context: kinship, rituals and economic life. First, the space of kinship, the map of kinship which figurative by share the pork- as bride price- in the marriage, then externalize the marriage exchange cycles. Second, the sacred space is shaped by sharing the preys in the field of rituals public contrasting modern state institutions made traditional hunt illegal. Third, the space of economy, is the diagram about the food sources on the dining table, include a variety of dietary sources and its production / consumption space of daily life. The taki Bulbul indigenous community colonized by Japanese Empire and Government of the Republic of China, both colonialists implied the force from modern states and market economic system. Finally, because of these factors describe above, the indigenous spaces gradually be ruptured, yet the people still follow our cultural logic to constantly creating new food culture appearance, then relink the rupture space by our own way. This thesis not only provides a comprehensive view of contemporary Bunun people’s diets culture, but also layout the giant cross-regional, cross-time eating experience from a microscopic field of view.

Aboriginals’ health knowledge and health behavior were found to be associated with their lifestyles and traditional culture. Previous evidence on health knowledge showed that nearly 50% of Taiwanese people had poor health knowledge and poor health knowledge might lead to poor health status. In addition, based on previous international research, health literacy can be used to predict health status and it was found to be more accurate than factors of socio-economy, age and ethnicity. However, there is a lack of evidence to understand health literacy within aboriginal elders in Taiwan. Hence, this current study aims to understand relationships between traditional cultural beliefs, knowledge of health and self-care behavior among Bunun elders with chronic disease.   This study was to investigate relationships between traditional beliefs and self-care behaviors within Bunun elders with chronic diseases. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data and a total of 60 Bunun elders lived in Huadong area were recruited in this current study. SPSS version 22.0 was used to assist data analysis. Descriptive statistics, independent t-test, single-factor analysis of variance, chi-square test, Pearson correlation and complex regression were employed to analyze data.  Results showed that: (1) the participants with higher age got higher score on traditional culture acculturation, but got lower score on health literacy; (2) the participants got higher score on vocabularies of health and medical terms and they also got higher score on knowledge of chronic diseases; (3) the individuals got higher score on health literacy and they also had better self-care behavior on chronic diseases; (4) age, educational level and occupation were predictors of health literacy and self-care behavior on chronic diseases; and (5) the participants got higher score on health literacy and they also had better self-care behavior. Based on the study results, the Bunun elders with chronic disease had low scores on health knowledge generally. Higher age and lower educational level were negatively associated with their health knowledge. The results suggest that healthcare providers should use simple words or words easy to understand when providing health knowledge/information to Bunun elders. In addition, knowledge regarding chronic diseases, symptoms and medications can be introduced by using pictures or videos in order to assist the elders to understand the knowledge easily, and therefore to increase their health knowledge and to promote their self-care behavior.

Because of changes in economy and social values, more and more parents are unable or unwilling to raise their children due to negligence, abuse, divorce, death and so on. Grandparents need to be children’s surrogate parents in this circumstance instead of just complimentary roles. Aboriginal grand parenthood are more likely to be labeled as dysfunction or powerlessness, however, there are only ten related study in Taiwan. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to provide a comprehensive picture of these grandparents’ caring experiences and social support networks for establishing a more culturally-sensitive social welfare system. In order to describe their experiences thoroughly , this research was conducted in a Bunun indigenous tribe in Taitung by purposive sampling and three grandmothers were chosen as examples. By participant observation and in-depth interview methods, viewpoints from grandmothers, local primary school teachers, residents and social workers were collected, with 14 respondents in total. The qualitative results indicate that these grandmothers chose to raise their grandchildren owing to several limited reasons, the three major of which are: 1) risky incidents happening in children’s own families, 2) grandmothers’ subjective perceptions, and 3) conventional cultural factors. Rather than living up their cozy later years, they had to face tremendous challenges like sudden changes in their daily routines, grandchildren disciplining issues as well as intergenerational triads in the families. Nevertheless, they still received some resources from formal and informal social support networks. Resource availability and effectiveness were taken into consideration when they tried to seek help. Besides, some grandmothers had experienced ineffectiveness from formal resources, so they tended to count on trustworthy informal network members, who could also connect other formal resources if necessary. In addition, grandmothers’ attitudes towards those resources were depended on the relationships between them and the network members. The research reveals that aboriginal grandparents not only experience “generation gap” but also “cultural gap” between the mainstream society and their conventional one, which makes their caring experiences more different from non-aboriginal grandparents’. However, the spirit of sharing and mutual help in indigenous tribes is an enormous advantage displayed among residents. Through open physical space and open relationship, this informal social support network succeeds to support these grandparents. Based on the research results, some policies and service implications are provided.

This thesis mainly discusses the formation context of a resistance space of Bunun aborigines of Taiwan, by documents, participate observation and depth interview etc. research approaches. And then we sketch the traditional social culture context, and analyze the movement process of resistant actors, so we can understand how resistant actors use resisting tactics, and tradition ways to build and construct a resistance space of Bunun aborigines of Taiwan. The constructing process of resistance space of Tumpu Daingaz, this thesis finds the relation with national park of Yushan and Tumpu Daingaz that imply Bunun of concept. They think someone owns more ability that he should look after and protects the person who is weak. It was defined the mutual unequal power relation, through exchanging (the way that offer the material or resources). But, Tumpu Daingaz people not only are limited and interfered by the unreasonable laws, they also face the collective action fault that impels Tumpu Daingaz resistant actors combine with heterogeneous actors from outsider, and even together with an aborigine’s legislative committee member. Tumpu Daingaz resistant actors through working in their traditional territory they claim, and articulate one aborigine’s legislative committee member, who exert her political pressure, turn over their (national park of Yushan and Tumpu Daingaz) inequality relation former. From the process of resistance actors combine with heterogeneous actors from outsider, this thesis finds that the transformation clue of aborigines’ movement in Taiwan. For example, the aboriginal working team operates in Tumpu Daingaz and other aboriginal tribes. They create an alternative culture political form. They not only meet Taiwan Christ Presbyterian in aboriginal area, but also attempt to replace it. At the same time, the team claims Aborigines self-determination and use the new partnership, opposing the Holo chauvinism and organizations of political economy, its point of application is just in Tumpu Daingaz.

Wildlife conservation law 21-1 is a very important regulation for aborigine to preserve tradition hunting culture. The clause has been already passed, however government administration still needs to settle detail of hunting rules in order to operate the law in practice. Therefore, this study aims to collect hunting regulation base on local residents’ common consensus, which can be used as the basis of aboriginal traditional culture on utilizing wild animale. Such that they can restore their tradition ethics and tradition hunting culture gradually. The in-depth interview is employed in this study operating at Nantou County Danda area residents to collect ideas and reasons of hunting regulation. Then the focus group method is operated to condense residents’ concept of hunting regulation. When the rules are obtained by previous methods, the study then use the Delphi technique to confirm the rules with 43 questions in the questionnaire. Twenty-four leaders with age 50-69 from four villages are interviewed. Those interviewers are 70% from tak-banuaz and taki-bakha villages, main vocations are farmer and worker. 79.17% of them have hunting experience more than 26 years. They hunt wild animals mainly using shotgun and traps. Moreover, 83.33% of them said they had ever hunt by dogs. However, only 8.33% of them ever use the land rifle. Ten conclusions had been made after the Dephi investigation including: hunting qualification, hunting zone, hunting duration, application procedure for hunting, limitations of hunting method, animal species, and numbers, management while hunting, usage of the prey, the hunting ceremonies, and other related regulations. Results showed that the Delphi technique can achieve consensus for hunting affairs in Danda area.

Walter Ong's major argument that such Homeric oral traditions asas repetitive phraseology and formulas are universal in all oral culturesaround the globe needs our examination. It is important to note thatnot all oral literatures are composed in the form of poetry; therefore,Ong's Homeric criterion fails to cover the phenomenon of some otheroral cultures. By focusing on some various versions of three Bunun legends,we shall investigate the possible way the Bunun oral traditions, which are apparentlydifferent from the Homeric ones, work. In this thesis, two concepts about the working of oralitywill be brought forward. They are the narrative focus and the motif focus.The narrative focus is the framework of the narrative whereas the motif focus serves as the bridge connecting different stories with a similar or the same theme.The narrative focus is a generalized outline of a story stripped of details. Different versions of the same story grow with different details.The motif focus is classified into two categories: the major theme as the motif focus and the sub-theme as the motif focus.The major theme as the narrative focus will bring together the stories with a similar or the same subject matter.The sub-theme as the motif focus helps Story A to incorporate into it Story B which bears the idea that happens to be the sub-theme of Story A.At last, we shall also explore the historical changes which the people of oral traditions have gone through.By examining the working of the narrative and motif foci of different versions of a story created in different generations,we see that these historical changes are usually reflected in story-telling.

This thesis investigates the formation of nouns in Takibakha Bunun. By examining the data collected in our field work, we find that Takibakha nouns can be classified into simple ones composed of monolexemes and composite ones formed by compounding, affixation and reduplication. The simple nouns constitute the fundamental part of the lexicon. Phonologically, they can be monosyllabic and polysyllabic. Semantically, as in other languages, the relationship between forms and meanings is basically arbitrary, though, the naming of some nouns may reveal how Takibakha Bunun people perceive these entities. Compounding is one of the devices employed to coin new words in order to express novel concepts. For example, the compound word tasa pangka ‘first grade’is constructed out of the words tasa ‘one’ and pangka ‘table’. Takibakha compounds are basically head-initial and usually denote specialization, constituting the hyponyms of their respective head words. Affixation is the most frequently employed word formation strategy to expand the lexicon in Takibakha Bunun. The affixes in Takibakha nouns can be further divided into prefixes, infixes, suffixes and circumfixes. For example, the noun ti-kutu ‘comb’ is formed by the root kutu ‘head lice’ and the prefix ti-; the word s-in-epuk ‘livestock’ is constituted out of the verb sepuk ‘to raise or take care’ plus the infix -in-; the nominalized noun uluzi-an ‘dance hall or ballroom’ is derived from the stem uluzi ‘to dance’ suffixed by -an. Moreover, nouns can be formed by complex affixation, i.e. adding more than one affixes as in pa-tun-paklic-an ‘receiver or handset.’ Nouns can also be formed by full reduplication, as in amin-amin ‘things’ (&lt;amin ‘all’) or partial reduplication, as in ma-u-unting ‘driver’ (&lt;ma-unting ‘to drive’). Looking into how nouns are formed leads us to a better understanding of how Bunun people name things around them and finally how they perceive the world.
