Bret Hinsch explores in detail the central aspects of female life in this era, including family and marriage, motherhood, political power, work, inheritance, education, religious roles, and virtues. He considers not only the lived world of women, but also delves into their emotional life and the ideals they pursued. Drawing on a wide range of Western and Chinese primary and secondary sourcesโincluding standard histories, poetry, prose literature, and epitaphsโHinsch makes an important period of Chinese womenโs history accessible to Western readers.
