Course Description | Moving beyond stereotypes of victimized Asian womanhood and the dominance of Confucian patriarchy, we draw on Chinese literary/historical texts to examine sites of agency and power. Interrogating a range of gendered identities, roles, and expressions—from classical romantic heroines (ex.Peony Pavilion’s Du Liniang) and dynamic women writers (ex.the poet Li Qingzhao) to sexy fox spirits, cross-dressed warriors (Mulan), and queer love affairs (Li Yu’s Women in Love)—we probe relationships among social roles, sexualized bodies, and the performance of gender. |
