Focusing on the specialty of “medicine for women”(fuke), Yi-Li Wu explores the material and ideological issues associated with childbearing in the late imperial period. She draws on a rich array of medical writings that circulated in seventeenth- to nineteenth-century China to analyze the points of convergence and contention that shaped people's views of women's reproductive diseases. These points of contention touched on fundamental issues: How different were women's bodies from men's? What drugs were best for promoting conception and preventing miscarriage? Was childbirth inherently dangerous? And who was best qualified to judge? Wu shows that late imperial medicine approached these questions with a new, positive perspective.
Yi-Li Wu is an independent scholar and a Center Associate of the Center for Chinese Studies, University of Michigan.

嚴謹之作,到了結論才進入理論層面的發揮。主要在反駁Charlotte Furth對中國身體的觀點。
评分算是把我想读的读完了吧。有启发的就是医疗文本分专业和业余两方面来谈那两章。医学书籍的编纂以及印刷流传。“作为业余者的仲裁者”,业余者却更拥有话语权。一是专业医生往往是科考失败者,富有学识的业余者具有更好的教育背景,更具权威性。二是医学最终面向大众。
评分写的超级用心
评分From androgyny to infinite body, inspiring conceptualization.
