古树发奇香:消失中的香港客家文化
Ye Deping Qiu Yi
The Hakka group is an important part of the original residents of Hong Kong. During many migrations over thousands of years, the Hakka ancestors brought the culture and customs of the Central Plains to Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangdong and Taiwan, and blended them with the local customs and culture to form a unique Hakka culture and art form. The two authors of this book lead students to explore the centuries-old inheritance story of the Hakka group in Hong Kong through the Hakka intangible cultural heritage items included in the "Hong Kong's First Intangible Cultural Heritage List" announced in 2014: Wai Ming Song, Hakka Kirin Dance, Tea Cake Making, Lantern Making, Sun-salted Salt at Sai Kung Yantian Tsai, and the Patron's Day Ceremony. Through fieldwork, we explore the historical vicissitudes of the New Territories and salvage historical culture and collective memories.
