Popis: | This chapter studies the education for academic research that was institutionalized in colonial Taiwan and the informal training that was available to junior scholars. It first briefly contextualizes the founding of the only university in the colony in 1928, then examines the fields of Southeast Asian history and ethnology, in which the colonial government of Taiwan invested heavily, and draws a pattern from the careers of the faculty. This is followed by an analysis of the four modes of research training available at the time: undergraduate education, apprenticeship at the university, self-training outside the university, and advanced study abroad. At the end of the survey is a description of the foundational education that the remaining Japanese faculty provided to the first generation of Taiwanese academics in archaeology and anthropology after World War II. |
