伏羲女娲神话、图像流变与所蕴含的农业文化现象
Study on Spread and Change About Myths and Images of Fuxi and Nüwa and Farming Culture Contained in Them

伏羲、女娲是中国远古神话中最早且具有浓厚“农神”色彩的两位创世大神。伏羲、女娲神话的原始形态初见于战国时期,成形于西汉。他们的图像产生于战国时期,定型于西汉,于东汉时期标准化,魏晋以后趋于人格化。在此流变过程中,以农神信仰盛衰为线索的农业文化现象贯穿其中。因此,通过对这些问题的探索,可以对早期农业与社会、政治、宗教信仰之间的相互影响及相互作用有一个比较系统的认识。
Fuxi and Nüwa are two great gods who created the world with a strong “farming gods”color in the earliest ancient Chinese myths. Their myths originated in the Warring States Period, and took shape in the Warring States to Western Han Period. Their images were produced in the Warring States Period, finalized in the Western Han, and standardized in the Eastern Han. After Wei and Jin, the images were tended to personification. A clue is run through the spread and change processes with culture phenomenon of farming for the belief of farming god ups and downs. Therefore, we can understand in a rather systematic way the interaction among farming and society, politics and religious belief through probing these questions.
