羅漢門宋江陣的文化意涵

古稱羅漢門的高雄縣門鄉，目前仍維繫著傳統的民俗藝陣－宋江陣，本研究為了探討羅漢門宋江陣的文化意涵，採行文獻分析法與田野調查，自民國九十年始進行了二年多的研究，獲得以下的結論：現今存在於內門鄉共有宋江陣十九陣，由於社會的變遷，宋江陣的保家衛民的功能已逐漸淡去，羅漢門宋江陣已變成廟會慶典時的重要角色，羅漢門宋江陣在民間信仰的大力支持之下在內門完整的保存下來，並利用廟會節慶時展現而出。近年來由於政府提倡，人民普遍意識到鄉土文化的重要，故羅漢門宋江陣表演變成人們重視鄉土文化的一個重要指標。按理，羅漢門宋江陣的原始風貌應為身體活動的本質、傳統文化的保存、倫常關係的維持、團結鄉里的情懷、地方特色的表徵。但由於近年來的外力介入，羅漢門宋江陣已逐漸失去了他原有的社教功能，羅漢門宋江陣已在現代文明的侵蝕之下，慢慢的迷失了原樣，尤其是政治的恩怨、觀光產業的介入，在在使得深具傳統文化意涵的羅漢門宋江陣，已出現了解構的危機。
