Course Description

Women’s writing in China has been perceived as inextricably bound to representations of the personal. In this course we will rethink the role of personal life experience in the works of women writers in twentieth-century China. We will focus on a variety of fictional and non-fictional texts to interrogate how Chinese women have engaged personal experience under different historical and political circumstances and what form life has taken across different genres. Theoretical studies on gender, the body, autobiography, and trauma will be introduced to enrich the close reading of the texts.
