| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 國家發展研究所 === 99 === The subject of this paper is the female pop music song writer and performer in Taiwan, Si-Rong Lo, who had been nominated for Critics’ Choice Award in Golden Melody Awards. Interview and oral history were adopted as the research method to understand and investigate her life history and her music and the interaction in the Hakka music world in Taiwan. The aim is to try to understand the story behind female song writers as they write Hakka pop music and the way Si-Rong Lo, as being a Hakka woman, expresses her thoughts and feelings and gives her voice to Hakka women by singing. Her way to reinterpret Hakka culture was also investigated.
During the research, it was found that many of Si-Rong Lo’s work are the solutions to the problems she encountered in the past. After being in nature, she answers her doubts by poems, drawings and songs and sees her parent culture that she grew up in with a brand new perspective.
In addition, though the social status of Hakka women has always been in the labor and birth-giving level, their influence on the next generation is stronger than men. Moreover, in terms of female song writer and singer being more disadvantaged than men in the Hakka music world, it is found that, through literature review, it is a global, timeless issue. Experts from around the world are currently investigating this issue, hopefully more will be found out and female song writers can be paid more attention.
