该书是1996年在美国加州大学圣迭哥学区举办的“前近代儒家文化与中日韩妇女”国际学术研讨会的精选文集，由熟悉中日韩三国儒家文化与社会性别的3名专家联合主编。据编者在该书的导论中所称，本书的目的是为观察东亚社会的历史开辟一个新的领域和新途径。因为以往的模式总是把亚洲妇女看作是儒家父权制的牺牲品；而该书所要揭示的，无论是“妇女”还是“儒家传统”都不是固定不变的范畴，书中所录的每一篇文章都在还原女性的主体性和历史的复杂性，揭示出前近代中日韩妇女如何由她们所生活其中的文化所建构，形成其主体的进程和她们在特定历史情境下的生活情景，她们既不是被动的牺牲品，也不是儒教的叛逆者，而是具有能动性的与她们所处的文化环境进行磋商较量的主体——既接受主流官方的观念也反抗某些不利于生存的方面。每篇文章基本上做到用社会性别范畴考察分析妇女的历史处境，展现了中日韩三国妇女丰富多彩...(展开全部)
