Introduction (Chinese):

「如果上帝存在，為甚麼祂不顯現自身，向世人宣示自己的存在？抑或，根本就沒有上帝？」1993年，著名無神論宗教哲學家J. L. Schellenberg出版《Divine Hiddenness and Human Reason》，為「上帝隱匿問題」提供了嚴密的論證，轟動國際學界，隨即成為經典，並成功使「上帝隱匿問題」成為了嶄新的核心學術議題。2023年，在英國伯明翰大學宗教哲學中心（Birmingham Centre for Philosophy of Religion）與美國約翰．鄧普頓基金會（John Templeton Foundation）的「全球宗教哲學翻譯獎助」贊助下，中譯本《神的隱匿與人的理性》由臺大哲學系陳樂知副教授完全翻譯，並由臺大出版中心出版： https://reurl.cc/x7xYxL

本評論會由國際期刊Asian Journal of Philosophy、臺大傳統與科學形上學研究中心，以及臺大出版中心聯合舉辦，邀請台灣、香港、新加坡、美國等各地華人宗教哲學學者進行評論，與原作者J. L. Schellenberg互動交流。

Introduction (English):

"If God exists, why doesn't he reveal himself to everyone? Or perhaps, there is no God at all?" In 1993, the renowned atheist philosopher of religion J. L. Schellenberg published Divine Hiddenness and Human Reason, in which he provided a rigorous case for the "problem of divine hiddenness" that shook the international academic community. It quickly became a classic and successfully made the philosophical problem a new core academic issue. In 2023, with the sponsorship of the Birmingham Centre for Philosophy of Religion at the University of Birmingham and the John Templeton Foundation, the Chinese translation of the book was completed by Lok-Chi Chan from the Department of Philosophy at National Taiwan University and published by the National Taiwan University Press.

This conference is jointly organized by Asian Journal of Philosophy,  National Taiwan University's Center for Traditional and Scientific Metaphysics, and the National Taiwan University Press. It invites Ethnic Chinese philosophers of religion from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and the United States to critically comment on the work and interact with the original author, J. L. Schellenberg.
