唱出佛陀的生活:老挝民间歌剧作为一种教育媒介1993年5月,乔治华盛顿大学M.A.T.,圣迈克尔学院教育学博士,马萨诸塞州大学导演:罗伯特·J·米尔茨教授老挝民间歌剧是流行戏剧和诗歌的独特融合,在东南亚农村讲老挝语的人们中演出,用于广泛的社会和宗教目的。作为大众教育的传统媒介,其主要功能是通过再现古代神话、当地民间传说和以佛陀倒数第二世为基础的道德故事,维护老挝民族的文化特性。本文探讨了老挝民间歌剧作为一种媒介的作用,建设性地解决文化冲突和文化适应压力之间出现的低地老挝难民和他们的孩子在美国城市的问题。调查的中心重点是老挝民间歌剧目前作为重新安置背景下的学习媒介的方式。由于长期的重新安置问题继续出现,对语言和文化特性构成威胁,因此越来越明显地需要确认这种当地制作的本土媒体。
SINGING THE LIVES OF THE BUDDHA: LAO FOLK OPERA AS AN EDUCATIONAL MEDIUM MAY, 1993 JEAN BERNARD-JOHNSTON B.A. , THE GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY M.A.T., ST. MICHAEL'S COLLEGE Ed.D., UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS Directed by: Professor Robert J. Miltz Lao folk opera is a unique blend of popular theatre and sung poetry performed among Lao-speaking people of rural Southeast Asia for a wide range of social and religious purposes. As a traditional medium for popular education, its primary function has been to preserve the cultural identity of the ethnic Lao by re-enacting ancient myths, local folk legends, and morality tales based on the penultimate lives of the Buddha. This dissertation explores the role of Lao folk opera as a medium for constructively addressing problems of cultural conflict and acculturative stress that have arisen among lowland Lao refugees and their children in urban America. The central focus of the inquiry is on the ways Lao folk opera currently functions as a learning medium in the resettlement context. The need for validation of such locally produced endogenous media has become increasingly apparent as long term term resettlement issues continue to emerge as threats to linguistic and cultural identity.
