Public Lecture Series on “Lingnan Culture and the World” 2025 Humans and Deities Connected Through Celebrations: Festivals and Customs in Lingnan
The Public Lecture Series on “Lingnan Culture and the World” 2025, themed “Humans and Deities Connected Through Celebrations: Festivals and Customs in Lingnan,” is co-organized by the Institute of Chinese Studies at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Public Libraries. Two lectures will be held to explore the theme in an informative and engaging way.
Celebrations that bring humans and deities together represent a harmonious union between Heaven and humanity. In these festive moments, people commune with the divine and share in collective joy, infusing earthly festivals with sacred significance and deep religious meaning. The festivals and customs of Lingnan not only embody the common characteristics of traditional Chinese festivals but also reflect distinctive regional traits. Approaching the topic from an everyday, down-to-earth perspective, the two invited scholars will explore the religious values and cultural significance embedded in Lingnan’s diverse festive practices.
The talk series is also one of the activities in the Chinese Culture Promotion Series. The LCSD has been promoting Chinese history and culture through organising an array of programmes and activities to enable the public to learn more about broad and profound Chinese culture.
