摘要


本文以蘆洲湧蓮寺為中心,探討蘆洲地區寺廟與地方社會的相互關係。臺灣早期來自閩、粵兩地的漢人移民迫於生活所需,離鄉背井,冒險渡海來臺,在其披荊斬棘、戮力拓墾下,拓墾事業終有所成,聚落漸趨形成。早期移墾至蘆洲的漢人移民,主要以福建省泉州府同安縣人占絕大多數,他們憑藉著毅力與勇氣,克服了淡水河水患的威脅與限制,開田闢地,遂形成水湳、樓仔厝、中路、南港仔及溪墘等聚落。另一方面,這些漢人移民也各自帶來其原鄉的風俗習慣及宗教信仰,藉由寺廟的興建,除了表達對神明的虔誠信仰與答謝神恩之外,同時也藉以團結同祖籍的移民。 本研究以區域發展史為主要研究範疇,希冀透過從清中葉至戰後民國時期,有關蘆洲自然環境、人口組成、土地拓墾、聚落發展、民間信仰、地方菁英組織及地方公共事務等各方面的探討,藉以瞭解蘆洲境內寺廟與地方社會發展的相互關係。 一般而言,臺灣在早期的移墾社會中,移民原籍保護神的祭祀相當普遍,這些以祖籍相同的人群所組成之祭祀圈,無形中加強了移民原籍的地緣意識,並形成緊密的地緣團體,此種原籍祭祀圈以祖籍神明信仰為中心而形成者,在蘆洲地區主要以保佑宮及保和宮為代表;另一方面,清同治十二(1873)年,湧蓮寺建廟落成,而後,隨著時間的演進,蘆洲地區祭祀圈的發展開始有了顯著的變化。湧蓮寺藉由祭祀圈的整合,因而成為蘆洲地方居民的信仰中心,甚至成為蘆洲的地方公廟,此象徵著以蘆洲在地認同為主體的本土意識,逐漸取代了以蘆洲同安人為主體的祖籍地緣意識。
