The Ming–Qing dynastic transition in seventeenth-century China was an epochal event that reverberated in Qing writings and beyond; political disorder was bound up with vibrant literary and cultural production. Women and National Trauma in Late Imperial Chinese Literature focuses on the discursive and imaginative space commanded by women. Encompassing writings by women and by men writing in a feminine voice or assuming a female identity, as well as writings that turn women into a signifier through which authors convey their lamentation, nostalgia, or moral questions for the fallen Ming, the book delves into the mentality of those who remembered or reflected on the dynastic transition, as well as those who reinvented its significance in later periods. It shows how history and literature intersect, how conceptions of gender mediate the experience and expression of political disorder.

Why and how are variations on themes related to gender boundaries, female virtues, vices, agency, and ethical dilemmas used to allegorize national destiny? In pursuing answers to these questions, Wai-yee Li explores how this multivalent presence of women in different genres provides a window into the emotional and psychological turmoil of the Ming-Qing transition and of subsequent moments of national trauma.

评论 ······

这本书给我的感觉是框架和论点其实比较简单,但材料十分充实的作品。这本书主要从女性的形象、女性的创作等等方面来考察明清之交的文学书写,但反而因为如此有所局限了。关于这一时间段,我感觉在她早年的Enchantment and Disenchantment那本书里的第二章,Late-Ming Moment,那才是短小精悍,见人所未见,而且完美地铺开了对于文学美学幻想和现实反省立场的紧张,为后面红楼梦研究…
