In this major new collection, an international team of scholars
examine the relationship between the Chinese women's periodical
press and global modernity in the late nineteenth and twentieth
centuries. The essays in this richly illustrated volume probe the
ramifications for women of two monumental developments in this
period: the intensification of China's encounters with foreign
powers and a media transformation comparable in its impact to the
current internet age. The book offers a distinctive methodology for
studying the periodical press, which is supported by the
development of a bilingual database of early Chinese periodicals.
Throughout the study, essays on China are punctuated by
transdisciplinary reflections from scholars working on periodicals
outside of the Chinese context, encouraging readers to rethink
common stereotypes about lived womanhood in modern China, and to
reconsider the nature of Chinese modernity in a global context.
