中国上古女神神话是中华民族文化、民族审美习惯“活”的呈现。尽管我国的神话产生历史久远，但它一直处于早期文化建构中非主流的地位，研究历史短暂，直到20世纪初，一批受西学思想影响的学者纷纷涉足神话领域，通过对女娲、嫦娥、精卫、高唐女神、山鬼、西王母等女神的研究，正式拉开了对中国上古神话探讨研究的序幕。这些学者研究的角度不同，方法各异，尤其是西方神话学研究方法、二重、三重论证方法的渗透，尽管研究时间较短，但研究成果较为丰硕。当然每一阶段学者对上古女神的研究存在着不均衡性，尤其缺乏整体系统性观照，因此对研究方法以及研究意义进行简要探析对今后研究具有指导意义。%Chinese goddess mythology in ancient times is the vivid representation of Chinese nation’s culture and aesthetic habits. Although Chinese mythology has long history, it was not the mainstream of cultural construction in early times and was not studied for a long time. Until the beginning of 20th century, some scholars who accepted western thoughts started to study on mythology. Through the studies of some Chinese goddess, such as Nu Wa, Chang E, Jing Wei, Gaotang Goddess, Shan Gui, West Queen etc., these scholars uncovered the prelude of the study on ancient mythology. The perspectives and methodology of these studies are various;especially the use of the double and triple demonstration methods of western mythology is worth of noticing. Although this is not a long period, the achievements are still rich. The studies of scholars of different period are imbalanced and not systematical; therefore, the review of the studies, especially on methodology and research significance, is meaningful for future research.
