This volume develops new strategies for reading, contextualizing,
and interpreting the long Chinese tradition of women's biography.
Drawing upon a vast array of sources - from formal biography to
poetry, letters, and oral interviews - the authors examine how
women's biography served particular cultural, political, and
world-making projects, and how it illuminates these projects in new
ways by highlighting tensions within and between them.
