This innovative book uses the lens of cultural history to examine the development of medicine in Qing dynasty China. Focusing on the specialty of “medicine for women”(fuke), Yi-Li Wu explores the material and ideological issues associated with childbearing in the late imperial period. She draws on a rich array of medical writings that circulated in seventeenth- to nineteenth-century China to analyze the points of convergence and contention that shaped people's views of women's reproductive diseases. These points of contention touched on fundamental issues: How different were women's bodies from men's? What drugs were best for promoting conception and preventing miscarriage? Was childbirth inherently dangerous? And who was best qualified to judge? Wu shows that late imperial medicine approached these questions with a new, positive perspective.
Yi-Li Wu is an independent scholar and a Center Associate of the Center for Chinese Studies, University of Michigan.
嚴謹之作,到了結論才進入理論層面的發揮。主要在反駁Charlotte Furth對中國身體的觀點。
评分和Furth 那本比展现了更复杂多面的历史
评分文章結構是從醫書的流通和自證合法性開始,再講婦女的產前,生產和產後護理. 在結論中,不同與Furth的論點(她把黃帝內經中中國古代身體觀抽象為androgynous entity, 同時宋代以來越來越強調gender difference,從而產生婦科), Wu 引入語言學的inflectional morphology來解釋中國醫學的身體觀—an infinitive body, being conjugated into male and female, into the young and old, depending on different circumstances.
评分整本书充满了大量的个案,观点不免被冗余的故事淹没。可以看做是跟Furth奶奶的对话,认为宋之后的女性身体除了涉及分娩时候,与男性并无二致。结论有诡辩的感觉且太富有解构性。另外,第二章显得很凑数,且总体文字艰涩。
评分传送 https://1drv.ms/b/s!Ajo4WHjuTR-hghdq5iVV06tNGpGQ 三星半。材料扎实严谨、个案详细是优点,但理论构建以及观点表达实在太晦涩了,结论在我看来有些虚——想正面刚一发费奶奶,然而并没有说服我
