These essays examine the Confucian view towards women and whether old and modern attitudes and beliefs about women are a necessary implication of its general philosophy. The collection also compares ancient and modern opportunites for Chinese women in societal contributions and personal growth.

This volume offers new insights into the role of women in ancient China, their important contributions to society, and their pursuit of personal growth and fulfillment. The position that Confucianism may actually foster gender equity is particularly interesting in discussions of whether the Confucian worldview is degrading or repressive toward women.
