Women in the Late Qing Dynasty and Modern China (second Edition)

About This Novel

This book selects three perspectives: female society, female models, and female death from emerging newspaper texts in the late Qing Dynasty. Through an investigation of the lives and concepts of women in the late Qing Dynasty, this book specifically explores the complex entanglements between women in the late Qing Dynasty and the development of modern Chinese society and thought. The author attempts to shift the reading perspective from the official to the private sector by entering newspapers and periodicals, and thereby return to the scene. This effort is concretely implemented in this book through the analysis of ten cases and the meticulous processing of historical materials, in order to vividly display a certain scene in late Qing society, and thereby reveal the various cultural dynamics hidden therein. The first part, "Female Society", uses a case-by-case integration approach to reflect the new changes in women's lifestyles and ideologies in the late Qing Dynasty; the middle part, "Female Models", aims to outline the personality ideals of women in the late Qing Dynasty and aims to show that advanced women have a spiritual world that is different from the traditional one; the second part, "Women's Death", is about the different ways and causes of death of three women who died at the beginning of the last century, as well as the different social turmoil caused by them. The author believes that the resulting picture of late Qing society actually contains various signs of the emergence of modern society and modern thought. The author of this book uses a broad vision and meticulously manipulates newspaper historical materials that are not valued by academic circles to vividly reproduce various pictures of late Qing society, and unexpectedly and convincingly outlines the trajectory of new changes in late Qing society and thought from a unique perspective.
