In this feminist history of eight centuries of private life in China, Francesca Bray inserts women into the history of technology and adds technology to the history of women. Bray takes issue with the Orientalist image that traditional Chinese women were imprisoned in the inner quarters, deprived of freedom and dignity, and so physically and morally deformed by footbinding and the tyrannies of patriarchy that they were incapable of productive work. She proposes a concept of gynotechnics, a set of everyday technologies that define women's roles, as a creative new way to explore how societies translate moral and social principles into a web of material forms and bodily practices. Bray examines three different aspects of domestic life in China, tracing their developments from 1000 to 1800 A.D. She begins with the shell of domesticity, the house, focusing on how domestic space embodied hierarchies of gender. She follows the shift in the textile industry from domestic production to commercial production. Despite increasing emphasis on women's reproductive roles, she argues, this cannot be reduced to childbearing. Female hierarchies within the family reinforced the power of wives, whose responsibilities included ritual activities and financial management as well as the education of children.
简单说一下,这本书繁琐的细节让我头痛,但是它所用的人类学和历史学方法,女性视角和后殖民主义认识论很是厉害。学界评价很高的一本书,不明白为什么大多数人给了三星。 In her cultural study of technology, Bray has two themes. First, she revisits the reproduction of...

Technology as system, culture, and communication (!). Blew my mind.
评分材料夯實,跨專業視野廣闊。
评分白馥蘭老師經典作品,終於在上課的時候開給學生看瞭
评分*Mass market encroaches individual production unit, and production becomes a state-managed matter. Very interesting topic and perspective.
评分"Using technology to elucidate contradictions between different strands of representation or discourse, and show how women were integrated into what is too often still considered to be a male world."中間的很多觀點非常吸引人,比如說將WOMANLY WORK看成女人和STATE之間的直接聯係,而隨著商業化紡織不再是多數女人的工作之後,她們的REPRODUCTIVE ROLE纔被不斷渲染。然而因為太長瞭,中間有些章節有些重復還有些散亂,讀完瞭隻能說太耗腦。
