Since ancient times,people have been in awe of the unknown,from worshiping the sun and the moon to animal worship,from worshiping ancestors to ancient sages and sages.China is one of the four ancient civilizations,with long-term historical and cultural precipitation,especially folk beliefs,a complex and huge system,full of mysterious color,has always been a topic of great interest to the academic community.With the development of modern civilization,in the pursuit of speed today,the traditional folk belief culture is gradually dim,and even some traditional culture has no successor.Treasure Island Taiwan,which is closely related to the mainland,has a rich and diverse belief culture and a wide range of believers.It permeates all aspects of people's life.The development speed of gods and temples related to belief culture is impressive.Social modernization is a historical process and the only way for the evolution of human civilization.With the progress of the times,"modern" should not be opposed to "tradition".How should we sort out the relationship between traditional culture and modernization process? To maintain a balance in the social environment? How to keep the Chinese traditional culture with a long history is one of the common problems for all walks of life to protect the traditional culture.In this paper,a field survey is carried out in the Taipa Liao community of Kaohsiung City,Taiwan.By means of interview,observation and literature review,the current situation of folk beliefs and people's life in Taiwan community is described in depth,combined with the modern transformation of folk beliefs and other related studies,the traditional and modern persistence of folk beliefs and their profound connotation are explored,and the transmission of traditional culture is explored Bearing path.I believe that through the study of folk beliefs in Taiwan,we can see the big from the small and explore the protection path of traditional culture,which has practical significance and reference significance.This paper is divided into five chapters,including introduction,body and conclusion.Introduction.This paper expounds the origin of this research,based on the related concept elaboration,analyzes the related research status in academic circles,focuses oncombing the "folk belief","Taiwan folk belief" and "the transformation of folk belief",and discusses the significance of this research.The first chapter is field survey.Mainly from the geographical,historical,economic and cultural three aspects of the introduction of the general situation of the field.The second chapter describes the general situation of the temples in the field,and summarizes the characteristics of the distribution of the local temples.Through the classification analysis of the temples in taichailiao,at the same time,it summarizes the current situation of the temples.The third chapter is about the interaction between gods and people in the field.This paper summarizes the form characteristics of the interaction between gods and human beings,summarizes the characteristics of the ritual activities,and improves the overall face of the folk belief in juziliao.The fourth chapter analyzes the internal and external factors of modern transformation.This is the key part of this paper.It deeply analyzes the reasons of the transformation of the folk belief in taichailiao,and points out that the essence of the modern transformation of the folk belief is the change of the structure.Under the modern elements,people's cognitive behavior is reconstructed,and the dynamic balance between culture and society is realized.It is mainly described from two aspects: external and internal factors.Chapter five is summary.This is the conclusion of this paper.After the last chapter,it makes an in-depth study on how to inherit folk beliefs and how to protect it.Based on the context of region and blood relationship,the folk belief in Taiwan is still prosperous in the process of modernization,which is due to the success of folk belief transformation.The reason lies in two aspects: one is the external nuclear factor,the structural change of economy and population,and the local folk belief system "consciously" removes the old and inapplicable way of life and becomes more integrated with modernity;the other is the internal factor,the cognitive behavior of individuals and ethnic groups,which also has an impact on the modernization transformation.Finally,the article deduces three ways to protect traditional culture: the first way is to establish folk belief organizations,and to systematize and institutionalize them;the second way is to follow the guidance of the government,strengthen the publicity of traditional culture,and the second way for the existence of culture;the third way is to carry out the transmission properly and regularly on the premise that theexpenditure is controlled within a certain range Unify the activities related to culture,and at the same time add the belief activities to the "technology" element.Based on the above,we still need to see the dross part of folk belief,discard it in time,and find a proper way to protect folk belief.This paper argues that as long as the modern transformation mechanism of folk belief is found,there will be no contradiction between "tradition" and "modern",and there are still laws to follow in cultural inheritance.
