Item 臺灣竹塹地區傳統稻作農村的民宅(地理學系, 1991-03-??) 施添福During the past two decades, most of the scholars who studied traditional houses in Taiwan focused their attention on the explanation of the cultural significance of traditional houses. In other words, they tried to examine the external characteristics of environmental features, the internal arrangement of spatial elements and the setting of indoor functions according to the concept of gods and ghosts in folk religion, the living breath concept in Feg-shui, and the ethic order concepts within the traditional thought. Such research, despite contributive to the her-meneutics of the cultural style of traditional houses, touch little on the material basis upon which the existence of traditional houses depends. Therefore, it seems not yet complete in the com-prehension of the integral meaning of traditional houses. To complement the above-mentioned inadequacy, this paper intends to adopt an human ecological approach to decipher the ecological meaning of traditional houses in Taiwan. First of all, the major views of architects on the cultural meaning of house space are briefly retrospected. Then the process of intensity traditional rice cultivation is analysed as a basis to explain: (1) How did the farmers turn their farm-house complex into a energy-renewable and self-sustainable ecosystem step by step? (2) under the operation of such ecosystem, how did the houses con-tinually adjust their internal function structure and delicate their spatial forms together with the development of the whole ecosystem? (3) How did the traditional houses gradually disinte?grate together with the breakup of the ecosystem?Item 地理學方法論中的非實證論傳統(地理學系, 1987-03-??) 潘朝陽Traditionally, geography has always been regarded as a branch of the so-called “positive science”, and as such geography is held to abide by such rigorous scientific inference procedures as hypothesis, collection; evaluation; and analysis of data; verification, establishment of model, and consequently forecasting based on conclusion. Geography derived accordingly is referred to as ‘scientific geography’, the philosophy underlying known as ‘positivism’. The progress of natural sciences which has been advancing vehemently in our times has considerable impacts on the philosophy, since the 19th century positivism has become an emerging trend for methodology, calling for the application of natural sciencse, mathematical and physical models to the study of social phenomena with a view to find out universal law accountable for all that is seen and that which prevails in the cultural and social phenomena everywhere worlwide. Way back following World War II, especially during the 60's and the 70’s, Geography for study has been deeply influenced by theories like positivism and logical positivism, a lot of spatial scientifically oriented theses on the subject of geography came up one after the other, with strong backgrounds of math and physics, especially geometrical spirits, as reflected in the points, segments of line, and surfaces characterising geographical settings. As a matter of fact, there is an ab-positivism philosophy which has been prevailing and outstanding enough in the tradition of the evolution of history, be it ‘Romanticism", “Neo-Kantianism”, “Historicism”, they altogether run contrary to “Naturalism”, “Materialism”, “Empiricism”, and even “Positivism”, any that which favors “Mechanism”, they opposed researching, handling of cultural and social issues by means of natural science in one way or another, but instead they advocated “cultural historical sciences”, with stresses given to humanitarian value, individual meaningfulness, anItem Hupa(地理學系, 1992-03-??) 汪明輝
