HIST 285 - Seminar: The Yin and Yang of Gender in Late Imperial China (10th-19th centuries)


FDR: HU
Credits: 3
Planned Offering: Fall 2010

Relations between men and women are the basis of any human society, but the exact nature and interpretation of these relations differ from time to time and from place to place. The concepts of Yin (female) and Yang (male) were integral to the theory and practice of Chinese gender relations during the late imperial period, influencing marriage, medicine and law. This course examines the historical significance of late-imperial gender relations across these, and other, categories from both traditional and modern perspectives.Bello.
