Janet M. Theiss is Associate Professor of History at the University of Utah
Looking beyond the familiar trappings of the cult of female chastity—such as hagiographies of widows and chastity shrines--in late imperial China, this book explores the cult's political significance and practical ramifications in everyday life during the eighteenth century. In the first full-length study of the subject, Janet Theiss examines a vast number of laws, legal cases, regulations, and policies to illustrate the social and political processes through which female virtue was defined, enforced, and contested. Along the way, she provides rich details of social life and cultural practices among ordinary Chinese people through narratives of criminal cases of sexual assault, harassment, adultery, and domestic violence.

评分与材料结合紧密导致无法滑水读完。除了最后一章最后两节有点牵强以外,剩余的分析做得很漂亮,各方势力轮流登场。在谈Female chstity中诸多contradiction和negotiation时,似乎隐约在回应Ko:gender orthodoxy中的漏洞在民间不会带来resilience而是致命的conflict和fracture。
