This groundbreaking work provides an original and deeply
knowledgeable overview of Chinese women and gender relations during
the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). 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 sources-including standard histories,
poetry, prose literature, and epitaphs-Hinsch makes an important
period of Chinese women's history accessible to Western readers.
