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stunning array of primary materials - published poetry, gazetteer articles, memorabilia - as well as a variety of other historical documents, Mann reconstructs these women's intimate relationships, personal aspirations, values, ideas, and political consciousness.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.

“河道总督许振袆端坐于书案之前,桌面上铺满了诗稿。桌边有一个半旧的细长锦盒,盒子刚刚拂拭过,边缘有些许磨损,一个象牙袷袢也断了。” 最先是被这个开头吸引了。想起我也有这么一个锦盒,里面是一套沈从文别集,也是边缘有些许磨损,一个象牙搭袢断了。 如此细...
評分值得一看,很不错的一本书。 本书借助对19世纪常州张氏一门“才女”的研究,从女性的视角审视战争、叛乱、外敌入侵、王朝衰落等大事件的阴影笼罩下的中国历史。通过对张门三代才女的作品、地方志,以及相关回忆文章的深入解析,利用几近文学构拟的合理想象,曼素恩勾勒出她们在...
評分忙碌的一个学期过去了,终于可以静下心来提起笔,谈谈有关女性的话题了,也算是这学期接触妇女史的一点感触。 如今,说起才女,我想大多数人会想到林徽因,然而她的才情仿佛需要在与梁思成、徐志摩、金岳霖的爱情中得以衬托;有些人会回忆起合肥四姐妹,但她们的传奇之...
評分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.
