  • 1. Missionary Journal, “Chinese Character” This Article Was
    1. Missionary Journal, “Chinese Character” This article was published in a Protestant missionary journal, based in Canton, that operated from 1832 until 1851. Its readership included both the foreigners living in Canton and home religious communities in Britain and the United States. It is worthwhile noting that the title of the article places the author in the position of knowledgeable observer, thereby rendering his comments both “factual” and honest. The author maintains a sympathetic attitude towards Chinese women, citing their beauty and charm, yet paints them as victims of insensitive males and an oppressive culture, presuming an invisible sorrow shared by all women in China. Confucianism is named as the primary offender, and Christian conversion the sole savior. One may presume that this portrayal of delicate Chinese women as victims of brutish Confucianism helped to excite enthusiasm for the missionary cause in China both at home and abroad. Source: Lay, G. Tradescant. “Remarks on Chinese Character and Customs.” Chinese Repository 12 (1843): 139-142. No apology can or ought to be made in the behalf of the unfeeling practice of spoiling the feet of the female. It had its origin solely in pride, which after the familiar adage, is said to feel no pain. It is deemed, however, such an essential among the elements of feminine beauty, that nothing save the sublimer considerations of Christianity will ever wean them from the infatuation. The more reduced this useful member is, the more graceful and becoming it is thought to be. When gentlemen are reciting the unparalleled charms of Súchau ladies they seldom forget to mention the extreme smallness of the foot, as that which renders them complete, and lays the topstone upon all the rest of their personal accomplishments.

Gold, Co-Chair Professor Barrie Thorne, Co-Chair Since beginning its rapid transition to a market economy in 1978, the People’s Republic of China has sought to become internationally dominant. In order to develop human capital and labor power, it has implemented a range of ideologically-driven policies that have been geared towards improving the overall mental, moral and physical “quality” (suzhi) of the population. The current criteria for assessing the individual value of citizens have resulted in new lines of stratification being drawn among children. As a result, healthy rural daughters and special needs children in particular are now considered unworthy of intensive investment and face a higher likelihood of being abandoned to state care.

EFRAIM SICHER Signature of student: ________________ Date: _________ Signature of supervisor: ________________ Date: _________ Signature of chairperson of the committee for graduate studies: _______________ Date: _________ November 2014 Abstract This thesis explores the representation of Jewish characters in contemporary American television comedies in order to determine whether Jews are still depicted stereotypically as emasculate. The thesis compares Jewish and non-Jewish masculinities in American Television sitcom characters in shows airing from the 1990's to the present: Seinfeld, Friends, and The Big Bang Theory. The thesis asks whether there is a difference between the representation of Jews and non-Jews in sitcoms, a genre where most men are mocked for problematic masculinity. The main goal of the thesis is to find out whether old stereotypes regarding Jewish masculinity – the "jew" as weak, diseased, perverted and effeminate – still exist, and how the depiction of Jewish characters relates to the Jews' assimilation and acceptance in America.

  • Chapter Five Absenting the Chinese Man in the Ancestor Game In
    113 Chapter Five Absenting the Chinese Man in The Ancestor Game The novel retells again and again the story of the person who is marooned on some kind of island of metaphor and who comes upon the tracks of another self. But always it is the story of the isolated self seeking to transcend its isolation by becoming the other, the other self, through communication of the subjective reality of the self. When we were children we all asked someone close to us the awesome question, What is it really like to be you? (Alex Miller, "Chasing My Tale" 6) In an interview, Alex Miller has said that The Ancestor Game was written for a Chinese artist friend: "I followed his experience. I wanted to validate him" (Ryle 1). Notwithstanding that the character Lang Tzu Feng is at one point described as having a "mischievous, primate quality of cunning" (17), Alex Miller's The Ancestor Game (1992) has one of the more sympathetic representations of a Chinese man in recent Australian literature. Although it presents a sympathetic representation, The Ancestor Game is also predicated upon the displacement of that Chinese male subject by another. Representation, as Sneja Gunew tells us, involves two meanings, "on the one hand... as 'depiction' and on the other as 'delegation' (speaking for)" ("Playing" 87). Within this "speaking for" we can see representation is also an impulse to displace. In the second of these meanings a line of authority is assumed, a position vis-a-vis the one who is spoken for. However representation is also a practice in the absence of the one spoken for, and despite Miller's validating intentions of "speaking for", I will argue in this chapter that it is also possible to detect how ambivalent, limiting and marginalising this representation as depiction of a Chinese man is across the text, and how it is predominantly a practice of absenting the other.

  • Images of Women in Four Modern Chinese Historical Plays
    Fall 1993 61 Male Ideology and Female Identity: Images of Women in Four Modern Chinese Historical Plays Haiping Yan Modern Chinese historical drama emerged with the modern spoken drama in the May 4th New Culture Movement in the early 20th century. The modern spoken drama, a Chinese imitation and appropriation of the form of Western modern drama which putatively began with Ibsen, was a radical negation of the Chinese traditional theatre represented by forms such as classical Peking Opera. Starting in 1917, New Youth, which was launched by a group of young intellectuals and became one of the most influential journals of the New Culture Movement, vigorously criticized the traditional theatre in which "no man speaks human language" and advocated a new drama about "real people's real life."1 In their radical challenge to the traditional theatre, some of the young intellectuals argued that the genre of historical drama could not do anything useful but "repeat the old habits and stories."2 Guo Mo-ruo, a radical activist and one of the founders of modern Chinese literature, had a different view on this issue. In his opinion, the long history of China contains "the soul of the nation and indicates its future fate." What he wanted to do, as he announced in 1923, was to project a living energy into the dead skin of history and to generate a new form of historical drama which combines the past and the present into an image of the future.3 The trilogy named Three Rebellious Women was his first dramatization of this theoretical claim and, in a literal sense, the beginning of modern Chinese historical drama.

Why should we visit what is regarded as the most unprogressive people in the world ? Is there anything about China to interest or instruct us? Shall we find many things that are strange or wonderful? Let us see. China was a nation not less than 5,000 years before the United States was born. She has a language whose alphabet consists of 25,- 000 to 50,000 characters, not less than 3,000 to 5,000 of which a pupil must learn before he can read. A printing press was in operation in China one thou- sand years before John Gutenberg, of Mentz, made per- manent the revival of learning in Europe by his valuable invention. Her libraries contain volumes from three thousand to four thousand years old. There were schools and academies in China two thou- sand years before the Christian Bra. Her people constitute more than one-fourth of the human race, and her territory includes more than 2,700,000,000 acres of ground, or 350,000,000 acres more than the United States, and nearly 200,000,000 acres more than the whole of Europe.
