[[alternative]]Stories, Memories, and Identity--A Cultural Study of Chia-Yi He-Ping Judo Dojo
[[abstract]]Established in 1961, He-Ping Judo Dojo in Chia-Yi has been a place where outstanding Judo players practice and stay. It has also consecutively achieved seven years championship of the Taiwan Provincial Athletic Games. However, following the death of Mr. Chen Wu-in, who has run He-Ping Judo Dojo for thirty years, the Dojo has stumbled into its low tide. In recent years, pupils of He-Ping have endeavored to search for another place in Chia-Yi to relocate the training hall and to continue its Judo training and popularizing works. As a result, He-Ping Judo Dojo has gradually retained its prosperity.
Basic Judo trainings have always been difficult. However, keen in reviving the honor and achievements of He-Ping Judo Dojo, the pupils willingly undertook the mission of the trainings. This revealed that, in He-Ping Judo Dojo, ‘training’ is not merely a physical matter, but rather, it represents an embodiment of He-Ping’s past dreams and ideals.
There were ‘stories’ filling the spaces of He-Ping Judo Dojo. Some stories belonged to the space itself, and the others were told and spread by people. Nowadays, these stories are also a collective memory of the pupils. The collective memory of the pupils became a platform for identifying themselves and each others. By this, an ‘imagined community’ was formed in spite of the death of Mr. Chen and the disuse of the previous training hall. Collective memories enhance cohesion within the members of He-Ping Judo Dojo. Therefore, members bear in mind the task of preserving He-Ping’s tradition, and the great mission of the revival of its highest peak.
This essay adopted the method of interview to sort out the formation and operation of the culture of He-Ping Judo Dojo in its early days. It also applied the method of ethnography to examine how, after Mr. Chen has passed away, the members of He-Ping ‘recollect the past’ and form a shared memory by eulogizing the stories of the Dojo. Furthermore, the researcher scrutinizes how the ‘identity’, engendered by the collective memory, brings the members together and, at the same time, creates/represents the tradition of He-Ping Judo Dojo in the regenerated training hall. Rituals and ongoing storytelling in He-Ping Judo Dojo connect its new members with past memories. This allows the imagined community of He-Ping to last and exist as they wish.
