  • Destruction of Patriarchal Society by Nu Shu in Snow Flower and Secret Fan

    Destruction of Patriarchal Society by Nu Shu in Snow Flower and Secret Fan

    ISSN 1799-2591 Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 11, No. 1, pp. 92-96, January 2021 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17507/tpls.1101.11 Destruction of Patriarchal Society by Nu Shu in Snow Flower and Secret Fan Xingjie Du Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, Guangzhou, China Abstract—Lisa See’s Snow Flower and Secret Fan is set in Emperor Taoguang period-late Qing Dynasty that is featured by patriarchal society. One of typical features of the patriarchal society is that the male is the center of everything, while the female is in a disadvantaged position, which is clearly shown in the novel. However, Laotong–a kind of woman’s friendship in the novel can be regarded as a sort of female rebellion to the patriarchal society. They communicate with each other in a special way that men have no access to, which in a way wins more space for women in feudal society in which men always are in dominated position in terms of social status in family or society. The paper is going to discuss how this nu shu narrative destructs the patriarchal society and strives for more space for women, breaking the yoke of man’s gaze and power. Index Terms—Nu Shu, patriarchal society, destruction I. INTRODUCTION Lisa See is an American writer and novelist with a Chinese great-grandfather who has wielded great influence on her life and writing career. Some of her works mention cultural events emphasizing the importance of Los Angeles and Chinatown. As a foreigner who has a special connection with Chinese culture and history, she can write from outside and inner side.

  • Island of Sea Women (Discussion Questions)

    Island of Sea Women (Discussion Questions)

    Island of Sea Women (Discussion Questions) 1. The story begins with Young-sook as an old woman, gathering algae on the beach. What secrets or clues about the past and the present are revealed in the scenes that take place in 2008? Why do we only understand the beginning of the novel only after we have finished it? 2. When Young-sook and Mi-ja are fifteen, Young-sook’s mother says to them: "You are like sisters, and I expect you to take care of each other today and every day as those tied by blood would do" (p. 13). How are these words of warning? The friendship between Young-sook and Mi-ja is just one of many examples of powerful female relationships in the novel. Discuss the ways in which female relationships are depicted and the important role they play on Jeju. 3. On page 17, Young-sook’s mother recites a traditional haenyeo aphorism: Every woman who enters the sea carries a coffin on her back. But she also says that the sea is like a mother (p. 22). Then, on page 71, Grandmother says, "The ocean is better than your natal mother. The sea is forever." How do these contradictory ideas play out in the novel? What do they say about the dangerous work of the haenyeo? 4. In many ways, the novel is about blame, guilt, and forgiveness. In the first full chapter, Yu-ri has her encounter with the octopus. What effect does this incident have on various characters moving forward: Mother, Young-sook, Mi-ja, Do-saeng, Gu-ja, Gu-sun, and Jun-bu? Young-sook is also involved in the tragic death of her mother.

    Press Release For Immediate Release Contact: Sarah Weissman, Communications Specialist (410) 685-4186 | [email protected] Date: April 3, 2020 THE ISLAND OF SEA WOMEN BY LISA SEE IS 2020 ONE MARYLAND ONE BOOK SELECTION Maryland Humanities’ Statewide Reading and Discussion Program Enters Thirteenth Year (Baltimore, MD)—Maryland Humanities is pleased to announce the selection of The Island of Sea Women: A Novel by Lisa See for the 2020 One Maryland One Book program. The novel follows the decades-long friendship of two haenyeo (female divers) from Jeju Island in Korea. The book was chosen by a committee of librarians, educators, authors, and bibliophiles in February from more than 165 titles suggested last fall by readers across the state for the theme, “Friendship.” In 2019, The Island of Sea Women made the New York Times’ list of best sellers. “For the past 12 years, One Maryland One Book has generated frank conversations about urgent issues explored through literature—including refugees and migrants, conflicts with police, and most recently the Flint water crisis,” says Aaron Heinsman, Acting Executive Director at Maryland Humanities. “I’m excited to see what new perspectives Lisa See’s novel surfaces for readers.“ See says: “I’m thrilled and honored that The Island of Sea Women has been chosen as the 2020 One Maryland One Book selection. This has been a trying year and some of us have sustained terrible losses. I’m proud of the way we’ve had to come together in our families, communities, and states. Books have always given me joy, solace, and courage.
