我們談及「神」這個概念的時候,甚少會在前面加一個「男」字,但「女神」則總離不開一個「女」字,彷彿所有神明的基本設定就是男性,而「女神」是少數、是特例。不同文化和宗教中的「男神」能力廣大,掌管的範疇包羅萬有,包括戰爭、科技等等,最重要的,莫過於其創世功能;相反,「女神」則往往居於副手、陪襯或伴侶位置,其職能只包括與女性相關的、較為不重要的範疇,例如愛情、婚姻、生育、紡織等。

但神明有性別嗎?神明的性別有高低嗎?男神和女神為何如此分工?神話出現的背景是甚麼?它們反映了怎樣的性別觀念,又如何形塑我們當下的性別觀念呢?

我們有幸邀請到香港電台《文學放得開》兩位常駐嘉賓,神話研究學者陳煒舜教授及藝術家黃嘉瀛,由神話學、歷史、文學及藝術等角度切入,以女性角度重新檢視不同文化裡面的女神的形象的演變與再造,一同探討「你是女神/不要為俗眼收斂色彩」的真正意義。

感謝Aesop的慷慨支持,每位參加者將獲得天然純素面部護理小禮物一份,在創新世界之餘也不忘呵護自己。禮品先到先得,送完即止。

When we talk about the concept of "god", we would rarely indicate the male gender, but the word "goddess", is forever branded with the female gender "female", as all gods are supposed to be male, and "goddesses" are but minorities and exceptions. The (male) gods in different cultures and religions have formidable strength and abilities, and they are in charge of most of the things that “matters”: war, technology, and many more. God creates, God punishes, God forgives, God saves mankind. And on the opposite end are the goddesses. They are often assigned supportive roles, or exist as partners to the (male) gods. They are in charge of less important areas, mostly things related to women, such as love, marriage, childbirth, etc.

But do gods have gender? How did ancient people understand the gender of gods? Why the gendered division of labor? What was the historical and cultural context of a certain myth? What gender concepts do the myths reflect, and how do they shape our gender concepts?

We have invited Professor Nicholas Chan and KY Wong to join us in this interdisciplinary conversation, to re-examine the many different images of goddesses in different cultures - from Nv Wa, Lilith, to Medusa - their origins, evolutions, and feminist potentiality.

Thanks to the kind support of Aesop to our program, participants of this session can bring home a special gift from Aesop, to nourish your body and mind! First-come-first-served basis while stocks last.

Speakers:
Dr. Nicholas L. Chan (Associate Professor, Department of Chinese Language and Literature, CUHK)
KY Wong (Artist & Curator)

Moderator: Sonia Wong (Founder of Reel Women HK & Co-Founder of WFHK & Gender Studies Scholar)
