Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 音樂學研究所碩士班 === 94 === Modern semiotic theories are applied to theater since 1931. In Prague, the capital of Czech Republic, Russian formalistic critics cited theories of Saussure and Peirce to make advanced development in Semiotics of Art. After that, Prague school continually published many works on Semiotics of Theater, which opened a new field of vision for study on theater.
For recent years, some theses on semiotic analysis of Peking Opera Theater or Peking Opera incidental music are published. This thesis puts emphasis on the study of the semiotics hidden in the Peking Opera singing patterns, targeting on the singing patterns employed in “ The Forth Son Visiting His Mother” to investigate how the system of Sipi Patterns constructs meanings in Peking Opera, and furthermore to analyze the semiotic properties of singing patterns with the theories of Saussure and Peirce. While making thorough understanding how the touching factors interact with audience through symbols in the singing patterns of “The Forth Son Visiting His Mother”, we hope to do some more initial-stage works on forming the basis of Semiotics of Peking Opera singing patterns.
