Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"Tani E. Barlow breaks original ground. Her book has a theoretical reach and sophistication very rare in the China field, drawing its analytical tools from history, literature, feminist studies, psychoanalysis, and film criticism." Gail Hershatter, author of Dangerous Pleasures: Prostitution and Modernity in Twentieth-Century Shanghai "The Question of Women in Chinese Feminism is an exciting and provocative journey through Chinese feminism and its theoretical permutations throughout the twentieth century." Lisa Rofel, author of Other Modernities: Gendered Yearnings in China after Socialism "Placing feminist thought within a continuum that defines human life in eugenic terms, Tani E. Barlow shows how Chinese feminism is not simply an inheritance of western ideas but is absolutely central to modernity and its emphasis on the sexed human being. The Question of Women in Chinese Feminism will spark controversy and will eventually stand as a model of scholarship for all of us to follow." Wendy Larson, author of Women and Writing in Modern China " ... a depth of theoretical consideration and richness of empirical cross-reference that is unparalleled in writings on Chinese feminism."--China Information, XIX(1) 2005 Read more...
