Laburpena

In this paper, we will reflect on the condition of Chinese women in the first decades of the 20th century through a close reading of Bansheng yuan, Zhang Ailing (Eileen Chang)’s first long novel. Through the analysis of the three main female characters, we will focus in two aspects ‒lack of labor independence and marriage‒ to underscore that, in spite of some theoretical improvements, the position of women was still burdened in reality.
