The history of China in the nineteenth century usually features men as the dominant figures in a chronicle of warfare, rebellion, and dynastic decline. This book challenges that model and provides a different account of the era, history as seen through the eyes of women. Basing her remarkable study on the poetry and memoirs of three generations of literary women of the Zhang family - Tang Yaoqing, her eldest daughter, and her eldest granddaughter - Susan Mann illuminates a China that has been largely invisible. Drawing on a stunning array of primary materials - published poetry, gazetteer articles, memorabilia - as well as a variety of other historical documents, Mann reconstructs these women's intimate relationships, personal aspirations, values, ideas, and political consciousness. She transforms our understanding of gender relations and what it meant to be an educated woman during China's transition from empire to nation and offers a new view of the history of late imperial women.

评分 评分据说也是particularly clean writing—2015二月; a wonderful challenge to recent historical narrative& impressive argument on Chinese family. 2016.3.4
评分向司马迁致敬却感觉东施效颦。
评分read for Lean's class
评分a big part of the book is imaginary construction, thus is very readable and engaging, particularly the first chapter. The other two have some repetitions. An addition to the history of women, but not as good as The Death of Woman Wang.
评分非典型史学研究,当时文笔真的太好太好了。
