書籍介紹
本書所收錄的十七則傳說，採集於二十世紀八〇年代，講述者皆為出生於二十世紀初的卑南族人。其中部分傳說以兩位不同講述者的版本呈現，展現口述傳統的多樣性。這些文本曾被納入我的民族誌研究分析。如今，我將這些故事重返卑南族社群，用以記錄並保存其珍貴的口傳文化，亦為過去語言的重要見證。對於試圖重新連結祖先智慧與文化遺產的卑南族人而言，這些資料將具有難以估量的價值。
本書採取直譯而非文學翻譯的方式，透過構詞分析的方法（morpheme-based approach），深入理解每一詞彙的構成。翻譯忠實呈現口述敘事時而斷續、跳躍的特性，包含記憶中斷、突如其來的停頓，或日常生活的干擾等情境。

編／著／譯者簡介
Josiane Cauquelin is a distinguished French ethnologist and anthropologist, currently an honorary researcher at the Centre for Southeast Asian Studies (CASE), a research unit of the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS).
She has dedicated most of her youth and academic passion to the Taiwanese indigenous cultures. Her research on the language and culture of the Nanwang Puyuma community in Taitung, in particular, has made profound contributions to both local and international academia.
As a foreign woman scholar, she initially faced challenges with strict, traditional Puyuma rituals, some of which prohibited female participation. However, her unwavering passion deeply moved their people. She was even privileged enough to move into the homes of officiants and shamans to record their daily life and eventually became fluent in the Puyuma language, devoting immense effort in studying its linguistic structure.
In recognition of her over four decades of exceptional contribution to promoting, translating, and preserving the Puyuma culture and language in Europe, she received the 23rd "Taiwan-France Cultural Award" in 2018 (presented in 2019). This award is jointly presented by Taiwan's Ministry of Culture and the Académie des Sciences Morales et Politiques under the Institut de France, the highest academic body in France.
The "Taiwan-France Cultural Award", established in 1996 and held annually since, recognizes institutions and individuals who have made remarkable contributions to promoting Taiwanese culture in France, Europe, and Taiwan.
Other notable publications:
• 2004: The Aborigines of Taiwan—The Puyuma: From Headhunting to the Modern World
• 2008: Ritual Texts of the Last Traditional Practitioners
• 2015: Nanwang Puyuma-English Dictionary (which has become a vital reference book for the preservation of the Puyuma language)

Josiane Cauquelin（戈格林）是一位著名的法國民族學家與人類學家，現為法國國家科學研究中心（CNRS）附屬東南亞研究中心（CASE）的榮譽研究學者。
她將大半生的青春與學術熱情奉獻給了臺灣原住民文化，特別是對於臺東卑南族南王聚落（Nanwang Puyuma）的語言與文化研究，在國際與臺灣學界皆有極高的貢獻。
身為一名外國女性學者，早期她在面對卑南族嚴格的傳統祭儀（如部分禁止女性參與的限制）時曾遭遇挑戰。但她的熱忱打動了當地族人，甚至有幸住進祭師與薩滿們的家中，深入記錄族人生活，並學會了流利的卑南語，長期投入極大心力研究其語言結構。
為了表彰她四十多年來向歐洲推廣、翻譯並保存卑南族文化與語言的卓越貢獻，她在2018年榮獲第23屆「臺法文化獎」（並於2019年獲頒）。該獎項由臺灣文化部與法國最高學術機構──法蘭西學院（Institut de France）轄下的人文與政治科學院（Académie des Sciences Morales et Politiques）共同頒發。
「臺法文化獎」創設於1996年，自此每年頒發，旨在表彰於法國、歐洲及臺灣推廣臺灣文化具有卓越貢獻的機構及人士。
其他代表性著作：
• 2004年：The Aborigines of Taiwan—The Puyuma: From Headhunting to the Modern World
• 2008年：Ritual Texts of the Last Traditional Practitioners of Nanwang Puyuma《最後幾位傳統南王卑南巫師的祭祀文》
• 2015年：Nanwang Puyuma-English Dictionary（已成為卑南語傳承極為重要的工具書）
序言／導讀
Josiane Cauquelin has been deeply engaged in the field of Puyuma ethnology since 1983. She has investigated Puyuma social structure, traditions and religion in great depth, recording ritual texts from both male and female officiants, and noting legends whenever the opportunity arose. Although she is primarily an ethnologist, her oeuvre also includes an excellent grammatical sketch and dictionary of Nanwang Puyuma. (Taken from the first paragraph of the Preface)
自1983年以來，戈格林（Josiane Cauquelin）長期深耕卑南族民族學研究領域。她對卑南族的社會結構、傳統與宗教進行了極為深入的調查，紀錄了男女祭師的祭文，並利用任何可能的時機記錄傳說故事。雖然她主要是民族學家，但是她的著作包含了極為優秀的南王卑南語語法概要與辭典。（摘錄自「序」的第一段）
