Readings in Chinese Womens Philosophical and Feminist Thought is a groundbreaking collection of 40 original writings by 32 authors (many of whom are women) from the Yuan dynasty to the Republics, a significant 700-year historical period characterized by economic prosperity, the development of commercial printing, and the interaction between East and West. The book offers a comprehensive selection of readings, including canonical texts on womens virtues as well as less orthodox literary works such as plays, poetry, novels, essays, and revolutionary writings. With many texts translated into English for the first time, this reader provides the necessary context to understand them. The book is chronologically organized, tracing the historical progression of thought from the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties to the Republics. It includes introductions to each section and chapter, covering essential information about the authors and their cultural, historical, and philosophical backgrounds. Additionally, the book features a chronology of dynasties, Republics, key events, and a map, providing a comprehensive historical context. By recovering discourse that is often neglected in discussions of Chinese thought, this collection is the first to pay special attention to women-authored works from the late 13th to the early 21st century. By juxtaposing and comparing female and male perspectives from the same time, it creates a new narrative of Chinese philosophical thought.
