Women and Feminism in the Literary History of Early-Twentieth-Century China 1
Notes Introduction: Women and Feminism in the Literary History of Early-Twentieth-Century China 1. These various renderings of “feminism” can be found in texts from the period covered in this study. While often used interchangeably, they carry slightly dif- ferent connotations. 2. In addition to calling for a radical transformation of Confucian social mores and values prejudicial to women, early feminists also demanded concrete recognition of women’s social and political rights. Prominent among these were the eradication of foot binding, equal rights in inheritance, access to edu- cation and the professions, marital freedoms, including the right to choose one’s own partner and to divorce, the right to vote and be elected to public office, and the abolition of the practice of child-brides, concubinage, and prostitution. 3.

欲掩彌彰:中國歷史文化中的「私」與「情」─私情篇 317 In and Out: Love’s Marketplace in Late Qing Fiction Paola Zamperini * Abstract The aim of the present paper is first of all to analyze the complex and often contradictory ways in which love becomes a commodity in nov- els of the late Qing period. Secondly, it looks at how, in these sources, the characters’ private pursuit of love and emotional fulfillment gets entangled with their quest for modernity at a personal as well as at a national level. In the fictional production of the late Qing period, the brothel, the space of fiction par excellence in the history of traditional Chinese erotic imagery, provides one of the best arenas to study the conflicts between private, public, hidden and sentiment. The qinglou, at the turn of the last century, is no longer a romantic, secluded heaven for few chosen ones, and is instead represented as the piaojie, a modern marketplace, marked by competition, reproducibility, and multiplicity. Here gender and class hierarchies, as well as cultural and national identities, come undone in this process of radical change. Courtesans looking like prostitutes, men of letters dressed as Western businessmen, famous opera actors, even “respectable” women, meet in the piaojie to sell, purchase, consume, and dispose of romance, a commodity that is Keywords: Late, Qing fiction, Love, Marketplace, Brothel, public/private * Paola Zamperini is an assistant professor in the Department of Asian Languages and Civilizations, Amherst College. 318 Paola Zamperini only productive as long as it does not engender long-term attachment. In fact, as these works show, love can even be deadly if it stops being a public (or semi-public) monetary exchange and becomes a private ex- change of feelings. -
Triangulating Filial Piety, Ethnicity, and Nation in Late-Qing China: the Lilac Affair in Zeng Pu’S Niehai Hua
zeng pu’s niehai hua han li Triangulating Filial Piety, Ethnicity, and Nation in Late-Qing China: The Lilac Affair in Zeng Pu’s Niehai hua he extraordinary actions of a particular father and son became a T popular topic of literati writers during late-Qing times and further- more fueled an ongoing intellectual dispute. The father, Gong Zizhen 龔自珍 (1792–1841), was a renowned scholar credited by Liang Qichao 梁啟超 (1873–1929) for having initiated the important late-Qing intel- lectual turn from excessive evidential research to discussions of prag- matic statecraft.1 As we see in this study, various personal records and literary inventions, taken as a whole, make an ambiguous case for his having engaged in a love affair with a Manchu woman, Gu Taiqing 顧 太清 (ca. 1799–1877), who was the consort of a Manchu prince.2 Both parties of the alleged romance were celebrated poets, and it was through poetry that the name “Lilac Affair” (dingxiang an 丁香案) came about. The affair was savored with interest by many at the turn of the twen- tieth century and it garnered numerous details through memoirs and fiction. Yet it was vehemently denied by those who defended Gong’s and Gu’s reputations. 1 Although Liang Qichao criticizes Gong Zizhen’s scholarship as less than profound and his unrestrained writing style distracting, he concludes that Gong contributed to the reorien- tation of intellectual thought during the late-Qing period. According to Liang, most of the so- called “scholars of the New Text School” during the Guangxu reign (1875–1908) worshiped Gong Zizhen, a phenomenon satirized later in a chapter of Niehai hua. -

It draws upon literary and historical sources to examine how modern cultural figures resuscitated and even redeemed qualities associated with traditional shrews in their perceptions and constructions of the new woman across the first half of the twentieth century. By linking the literary trope of the shrew, associated with imperial China, with the twentieth-century figure of the new woman, my work bridges the transition from the late-imperial to the modern era and foregrounds the late-imperial roots of Chinese modernization. -

Transnational Literary Collaboration in the Writings of Xiao Hong, Zhang Ailing, and Lao She
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Towards an Itinerant Sinophone: Transnational Literary Collaboration in the Writings of Xiao Hong, Zhang Ailing, and Lao She A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Asian Languages and Cultures by Clara Chiyoko Iwasaki 2015 © copyright by Clara Chiyoko Iwasaki 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Towards an Itinerant Sinophone: Transnational Literary Collaboration in the Writings of Xiao Hong, Zhang Ailing, and Lao She by Clara Chiyoko Iwasaki Doctor of Philosophy in Asian Languages and Cultures University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Shu-mei Shih, Chair The increasing prevalence of literature which pushes the boundaries of national literatures as well as the difficulty that the methodology of comparative literature has with negotiating texts without a clear-cut national provenance has led to the increasing interest in reviving the term “world literature.” While most of the current theories of world literature are concerned with the migration of texts or authors unidirectionally, from the periphery to the center, this study is interested in tracing the migration of authors and texts along their itineraries. The benefit of this model is the way that it allows multidirectional movement, texts and authors move back and forth between countries, languages, and literatures in ways that current models of both comparative literature and world literature do not account for. The itineraries of the three writers and their texts also reveal the ways that the geopolitics of the time influenced literary movement: writers moved south to avoid Japanese conquest in the 1930s and 1940s and moved westward to the United States in the 1950s.
