Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Life of Chinese Women Round the door still stood the band of young girl ushers, who at all our meetings had been such a feature in the Conference, looking so tall and strong with the glow of youth and health upon their faces. But within a fortnight quite suddenly there sounded forth another benediction Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord; even so saith the Spirit; for they rest from their labours, and one of our young King's Daughters had gone forth alone to meet her King. So teach us to number our days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Women in Imperial China written by Bret Hinsch and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This accessible text offers a comprehensive survey of women’s history in China from the Neolithic period through the end of the Qing dynasty in the early twentieth century. Rather than providing an exhaustive chronicle of this vast subject, Bret Hinsch pinpoints the themes that characterized distinct periods in Chinese women’s history and delves into the perception of female identity in each era. Moving beyond the traditional focus on the late imperial era, Hinsch explores how gender relations have developed and changed since ancient times. His chronological look at the most important female roles in every major dynasty showcases not only the constraints women faced but also their vast accomplishments throughout the millennia. Hinsch’s extensive use of Chinese-language scholarship lends his book a fresh perspective rare among Western scholars. Professors and students will find this an invaluable textbook for Chinese women’s studies and an excellent supplement for courses in gender studies and Chinese history.

Download or read book 中国女性史 written by Kazuko Ono and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning the century from the Taiping Rebellion through the establishment of the People's Republic of China, this is the first comprehensive history of women in modern China. Its scope is broad, encompassing political, economic, military, and cultural history, and drawing upon Chinese and Japanese sources untapped by Western scholars. The book presents new information on a wide range of topics: the impact of Western ideas on women, especially in education; the importance of women in the labor force; the relative independence enjoyed by some women textile workers; the struggle against footbinding; the influence of anarchism; the participation of a women's brigade in the Revolution of 1911; the role of women in the May Fourth Movement; the differences between the more assertive women of South China and the 'traditional' women of the North in organizing for political action; the involvement of peasant women in insurgency and anti-Japanese struggles in the countryside; and the effects of the Marriage Law of 1950. The author has contributed a new preface to this English edition, and Joshua A. Fogel and Susan Mann have written an introduction that places the book in the context of studies of Chinese women, Japanese sinology, and women's history in general. The book has extensive notes, a bibliography, and, as an appendix, a chronology of the history of women in modern China.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Education of Women in China Of all the remarkable changes which have taken place in China within the last decade, none is more significant than the change of attitude toward the education of women. Active interest and even enthusi asm have taken the place of the indifference or disapproval of the past centuries. China is coming to recognize that if she is to be gen uinely strong, in the new era of her history upon which she is entering, her women must be given such education as will purify and elevate national life at its very source, the home. The character of the great new China' will be determined in no small measure by the women Of the nation, and what these women will be depends very largely upon whether they receive education, and upon the type of that education.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From China: With Particular Reference to the Empress Dowager and the Women of China Her Imperial Majesty's forty-seven years' reign proved the heart and mind quality which made a strong character, such as history has seldom recorded. The Empress Dowager of China was a great woman, and China's great men recognized and acknowledged this fact. The many conversations awarded me with Her Majesty revealed much of the concealed force and value of China's women. Ignorance of J these qualities has brought a pronounced misrepresentation of China's womanhood. May the light of understanding dispel the darkness of ignorance and reveal the true China and her people.

This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dawn of Chinese Civilization: Papers of the Literary Department of the American Women's Club In presenting this. The second series of papers published by the Literary Department, the impelling motive is again the desire to retain in permanent form the results of the season's study. The former series, Arts and Art Crafts, of Ancient China, which follows the idea maintained in the Year Book of the American Woman's Club of 1920-21, includes papers on painters and paintings of the Tang, Sung and Ming dynasties and the allied crafts together with the porcelains of these periods. In addition to the papers on art, are historical sketches of the Emperors under whose royal patronage the fine arts were encouraged and developed. Nor are the religious phases overlooked, for the art of China, like all its cultural development is so closely linked With its religious traditions that it is not possible to consider one without the other. Historical descriptions of the three most sacred places in China - Tai-shan, Omei-shan and Puto-shan furnish excellent examples of the significance of the religious influences. The papers in the present publication are chiefly con cerned with history and literature from the earliest dawn of civilization down through the glorious period of the T'angs. Beginning with the legendary rulers, the golden age of Yao and Shun, the growing sense of law and beauty is traced through the Hsia and Shang dynasties when China was begin ning to emerge from its pastoral state into the consciousness of self expressions; this was the foundation of one of the greatest civilizations the world was yet to know. Later the influence of Feudalism, with its many ramifications, is clearly set forth until the numerous states are brought together in the formal ritualism of the Chow dynasty, only to be submerged by the conquering state of Ch'in, giving to the Hans a splendid heritage upon which to build their artistic kingdom. However, it was but history repeating itself, for following the decadence of the Han civilization came the most romantic period of Chinese history - the Period of the Three Kingdoms - which was entirely blotted out by that dreadful chaos of the Dark Ages. Out of this chaos was to come the most glorious civilization of the Tang The Golden Age of Art and Literature.

Book excerpt: This first book-length study of gender relations in the Lower Yangzi region during the High Qing era (c. 1683-1839) challenges enduring late-nineteenth-century perspectives that emphasized the oppression and subjugation of Chinese women. Placing women at the center of the High Qing era shows how gender relations shaped the economic, political, social, and cultural changes of the age, and gives us a sense of what women felt and believed, and what they actually did, during this period. Most analyses of gender in High Qing times have focused on literature and on the writings of the elite; this book broadens the scope of inquiry to include women's work in the farm household, courtesan entertainment, and women's participation in ritual observances and religion. In dealing with literature, it shows how women's poetry can serve the historian as well as the literary critic, drawing on one of the first anthologies of women's writing compiled by a woman to examine not only literary sensibilities and intimate emotions, but also political judgments, moral values, and social relations. After an introductory chapter that evaluates the historiography of Chinese women, the book surveys High Qing history, charts the female life course, and discusses women's place in writing and learning, in entertainment, at work, and in religious practice. The concluding chapter returns to broad historiographic questions about where women figure in space and time and why we can no longer write histories that ignore them.
