民间信仰对女娲形象的双重演绎

在远古神话中,女娲创造世界、孕育人类,是一副大神的气派,而在后世驳杂的民间信仰中,女娲形象又被重新演绎塑造。民间信仰的世俗性与神圣性的复杂扭结造成了女娲形象双重演绎过程,一方面将女娲由远古神祇演绎为人类慈祥的母亲,充满了人间烟火气;另一方面女娲又被赋予无所不能的神力,成为万人敬仰的大神。这是一个交叉式的双向互动,其复杂性是和民间信仰的混沌性共生的。女娲在民间的这种存在方式最终决定了女娲文化信仰现存状态和未来演变的流向,这对于民间女娲文化信仰的传承与发展有着重要的意义。

The dual Interpretati0ns of folk beliefs to the image of Nuwa

The superior Nuwa in the myth, with the air of manito, creates the world and gestates life. But in the various impure folk beliefs, she is reshaped. The complex tangle of secularity and sanctity of folk beliefs leads to the process of dual interpretations to the image of Nuwa. On the one hand, Nuwa is shaped from an ancient goddess to an amiable mother, filled with the earthly air ; On the other hand, she is endowed with omnipotent power and becomes much - a- dored manito. This is crossing two - way interaction and its complexity is interdependent with its chaos. The way of being of Nuwa in the folk finally determines the existing state and future evolution trend of Nuwa cultural beliefs, which is of great importance to the heritage and development of Nuwa cultural beliefs.
