Thehakka History Culture Impressions

This book, based on field surveys and documentary research of Hakka districts, examines the three aspects of “history and geography,” “life and customs” and “representation and identification” to introduce the history, culture and image of the Hakka. The authors have carried out case studies in East Asia over many years and extend outwards from this center. Through field surveys carried out over many years, the authors got alongside and lived with contemporary Hakka people and have turned their personal experiences into relatable words that allow the reader to also feel present and experience Hakka customs from all over.
