【研討會】第十三屆台灣文化國際學術研討會報名開始！

國立台灣師範大學第十三屆台灣文化國際學術研討會報名開始！

自1624年以來，臺灣與荷蘭之間長達400年的歷史和連結，不僅有17世紀荷蘭東印度公司所建造的熱蘭遮堡，事實上，荷蘭對臺灣的影響深刻地影響我們的日常生活。

今年台灣文化國際學術研討會的會議主題是「華語語系世界的全球互動：海岸、公司與文化紀念的反思」，我們將在會上深入探討三個子題：（1）臺荷關係、（2）臺灣與世界的連結、（3）文化紀念活動，竭誠歡迎您報名與會！

Our theme this year “Global Interactions in the Sinophone World: Reflecting on Coast, Company and Cultural Commemoration” will be focus on three main topics: (1) Taiwanese-Dutch Connections, (2) Taiwan Connecting to the World and (3) Cultural Commemorations.

The theme of this symposium coincides with the fourth centennial commemoration of Dutch interactions in Taiwan and the beginning of the island’s engagement with the outside world. The year 1624 is historically considered the starting point of the Dutch overseas presence on the island, beginning with the construction of Fort Zeelandia in what is present-day Tainan City’s Anping District, the employment of Dutch settlers by the United East India Company (VOC), and their encounters with Indigenous populations. Since then, a continuous engagement with the outside world has characterized the historical development of Taiwan, centered on its role as a cultural hybrid and technologically innovative hub in the China Seas and the Indo-Pacific. It is in this spirit that we have conceived this international symposium with topics that bridge their original domain boundaries and offer opportunities for collective self-reflection.

On behalf of International Taiwan Studies Center, we are pleased to invite you to the 13th International Symposium on May 30 – June 1, 2024 (Thursday, Friday and Saturday).
