This anthology presents substantial selections from the work of
twenty Manchu women poets of the eighteenth and nineteenth
centuries. The poems, inspired by their daily life and reflections,
provide fascinating insights into the experiences and emotions of
these women, most of whom belonged to the elite families of Manchu
society. Each selection is accompanied by biographical material
that illuminates the life stories of the poets. The volume's
introduction describes the printing history of the collections from
which these poems are drawn, the authors' practice of poetry
writing, ethnic and gender issues, and comparisons with the poetry
of women in South China and of male authors of the Qing dynasty
(1644-1911).
