  • Does a “Chinese” Woman Become a “Feminist”?
    Towards an Ethics of Transnational Encounter, or “When” Does a “Chinese” Woman Become a “Feminist”? Shu-Mei Shih differences: A Journal of Feminist Cultural Studies, Volume 13, Number 2, Summer 2002, pp. 90-126 (Article) Published by Duke University Press For additional information about this article http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/dif/summary/v013/13.2shih.html Access provided by University of Toronto Library (17 Aug 2013 09:07 GMT) shu-mei shih Towards an Ethics of Transnational Encounter, or “When” Does a “Chinese” Woman Become a “Feminist”? To begin, two narratives: A Chinese woman who had rehearsed for the lead role in the model opera “Red Azalea” [Dujuan shan] during the waning years of the Cultural Revolution in the 1970s decided to emigrate to the U.S.1 Upon arriving in 1984, she struggled to learn the English language and to make a living. In the span of a few short years, she successfully mastered English sufficiently to accom- plish the unlikely task of writing a bestselling autobiographical novel, Red Azalea, named after the opera. The autobiography chronicles the traumas of the Cultural Revolution from a female perspective and clearly proclaims that America is the end of the author’s search for freedom and self-expression as a woman. Another Chinese woman, who in the 1980s had single-handedly created the discipline of “women’s studies” in the hinterland of China, the city of Zhengzhou in Henan Province, and had freely drawn from Western feminist classics in her writings, was invited to come to an academic conference on Chinese feminism in 1992 at Har- vard University.

  • Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 12-12.50 P.M
    EALC 352g: Chinese Literature and Culture Modern Chinese Literature in Comparative Perspective Spring 2016 Lectures: Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 12-12.50 p.m. Taper Hall of Humanities (THH) 116 Instructor: Géraldine Fiss, Ph.D., [email protected] Office Hours: THH 356J, Monday and Wednesday 2-4 p.m. and by appointment Teaching Assistant: Yunwen Gao ([email protected]) Scope of the Course: This course is an analysis of the changing literary and cultural patterns in modern and contemporary China. By engaging in close analyses of fiction, poetry, drama and literary thought from the late Qing period to the present, we will trace the changes that have occurred in China beginning in the late 19th century, throughout the 20th century and into the 21st century. The course sheds light on various transforming phases in which the influx of Western thought merges with persisting classical Chinese aesthetics to mold the form and content of modern Chinese literature, especially in fiction and poetry. The class will cover the socialist process in China since 1949 by focusing on key cultural-political movements, leading to the emergence of dissident writers. Simultaneously, the class will impose a genuine emphasis on the continuity of diverging literary practices in Taiwan where modernism is conspicuously and actively attended. We will also explore the unique situation of Hong Kong literature 1 and other “marginal” spheres within the Chinese cultural realm, such as contemporary Tibetan writers. Throughout the course, we will delineate the various modes of modernist innovation and experimentation that are taking place in Chinese literary art. We will also examine the nature and evolution of modern Chinese women’s consciousness and women’s writing.

  • A Wretched Idealist”: Tragedy in “Love Must Not Be Forgotten” Daijuan Gao [email protected]
    Seton Hall University eRepository @ Seton Hall Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs) Spring 5-15-2016 “A Wretched Idealist”: Tragedy in “Love Must Not Be Forgotten” Daijuan Gao [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: http://scholarship.shu.edu/dissertations Part of the Chinese Studies Commons, Comparative Literature Commons, and the Feminist, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Commons Recommended Citation Gao, Daijuan, "“A Wretched Idealist”: Tragedy in “Love Must Not Be Forgotten”" (2016). Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs). 2182. http://scholarship.shu.edu/dissertations/2182 Abstract Since its publication in 1979 and the ensuing controversy it evoked about the morality of an extramarital love affair (albeit platonic), Zhang Jie’s short story, “Love Must Not Be Forgotten” has continued to captivate readers and literary scholars. While the values of Zhang’s story, with its challenges to traditional ethics and its provocation of female consciousness, have been acknowledged by critics and commentators, examination of the aesthetics of the story’s tragic effect has thus far remained marginal. “Love” engendered pity and fear in readers, particularly during the time following the Cultural Revolution when the lives of Chinese people were firmly constrained by both established conventions and Communist ideology. It especially resonated with people who were miserable in their loveless marriages as it had provided them with a script of their own stories. The root of the tragedy in “Love” is multifaceted. While Zhong Yu’s unwavering Romantic ideals, the cadre’s “hamartia” (marrying his wife out of a sense of duty), and the confinement of society’s orthodox values all contribute to the tragic affair, chance and destiny also play a pivotal role in the characters’ lives.

Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' fami 1i arity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan.

Table of contents pages from current issues of major feminist journals are reproduced in each issue of Femi nist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated 1i sti ng of a1 1 journals we have selected. As publ ication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical wi1 1 have table of contents pages reproducd in each issue of FP.

  • Transnational Feminisms in Translation: the Making of a Women’S Anti-Domestic Violence Movement in China
    TRANSNATIONAL FEMINISMS IN TRANSLATION: THE MAKING OF A WOMEN’S ANTI-DOMESTIC VIOLENCE MOVEMENT IN CHINA DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lu Zhang, M.A. The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Professor Cathy Rakowski, Adviser Approved by Professor Jill Bystydzienski Professor Mytheli Sreenivas ____________________________ Adviser Graduate Program in Women’s Studies Copyright by Lu Zhang 2008 ABSTRACT My dissertation examines the construction of the contemporary Chinese women’s movement against domestic violence. It explores the anti-DV campaign in China within the global context of women’s transnational human rights campaigns against gender violence and historical factors (local and global) associated with the origin and work of the Network/Research Center for Combating Domestic Violence (the DVN), a new women’s non-governmental organization in Beijing with an unprecedented and exclusive commitment to the fight against domestic violence in China. Specifically, my analysis interrogates the DVN as a global-local interface for women’s rights that usually emphasizes initiatives at the global level and their “impact” on women’s organizing at the local level. My case study finds that transnational feminist advocacy activism, which has made violence against women an international policy issue through application of a human rights framework, provides crucial political opportunities and economic resources for women’s local political organizing. For anti-DV activism in the civil society sector of China, the processes of the United Nations Fourth World Conference on Women held in Beijing in 1995 and the international donors who fund Chinese women’s NGOs are particularly important.
