The speaker will describe how the traditional Chinese New Year is held among the Kaxabu, and share her experience in writing her picture book and its usage after it was published.
The Kaxabu New Year is celebrated on the 15th day of the lunar calendar. It includes many activities among others hunting, wine and dumpling making, meat salting, fishing, pig catching, races, ancestor worshiping. The completion of this picture book not only provides a large corpus of the Kaxabu language, but also introduces a culture that is not that well-known in Taiwan.
A 15-minute documentary film will be projected at regular time to show how fieldwork was carried out.
