碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 社會教育學系 === 103 === The purpose of this study is to explore the Japanese dietetic culture presented by the comic “Shinya Shokudo”, and to analyze its readers’ cultural identity. Regarding the above purpose, this study explores the signs, including pictures and their textual descriptions, as well as the narrative structure of storylines presented by 6 stories in the comic, based on the theories and assertions of semiotics and narrative analysis. In addition, through semi-structural interviews, this study analyzes 8 Taiwanese readers’ identification, including cognition, attitude and behavior, with the Japanese dietetic culture presented by the comic. Research findings are: 1. Textual characteristics (1) The dietetic signs and their implications: The stories portray certain Japanese dietetic culture with various signifiers, including the pictures of themed food and tableware as well as the textual descriptions of the homophonic meaning of certain food’s names (i.e. “Katsu-don”). For instances, the two stories, “winter solstice pumpkin” and “New Year's Eve soba”, highlight the food served in traditional festivals in Japanese dietetic culture with the texts of the story titles. (2) Storylines and narrative structures: 6 stories all echo the narrative pattern established by T. Todorov. Each of the themed foods is the element for destruction and reconstruction of equilibrium. 2. Cultural identity (1) Cognition: Interviewees recognize the texts from diverse dimensions, including the traits of those themed foods (whether they are purely local, and whether they are used in personal important days or traditional festivals) as well as various Japanese dietetic signs. Interviewees who have ever visited Japan can comprehend the above traits, while all interviewees can pinpoint various dietetic signs, showing that the texts can trigger multiple dimensions of cognitive identification for readers of different backgrounds. (2) Attitude: The texts presenting dietetic culture in a warm and humorous way can be enjoyed by interviewees of different backgrounds. The storylines which have something in common with readers’ experience can cause emotional resonance. And, those who have never been to Japan are more likely to be influenced on their fondness to the themed foods by story presentations. (3) Behavior: After reading “Shinya Shokudo”, all interviewees are willing to taste personally the themed foods, exhibiting the same behavioral tendency. However, concerning whether to further look up various information related as well as to cook the foods in texts, there exist variations among interviewees, reflecting different culinary cultural capitals owned by interviewees.
