Description

Explore the complex relationship between identity and culture in this scholarly volume from Brill. Performing "Nation" examines how gender politics shaped literary, visual, and performative expressions in China and Japan between 1880 and 1940. This work is essential for researchers studying the intersection of nation building and representation during a transformative period in East Asian history. By analyzing diverse cultural forms, the book provides a deep look at how constructs of masculinity and femininity changed during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It offers a unique perspective on how these social identities were performed and represented through different artistic mediums. This volume serves as a significant resource for students and academics interested in the historical development of gender and national identity in the Sinica Leidensia series.
