Abstract

"This is the first study to analyze the gendered ideologies of Chinese print media and political culture in a single work. It employs media analysis to examine the way paratexts create and reproduce gendered norms, especially through persistent material and discursive mechanisms that framed women authors and their textual production. Though a plethora of women's voices resonated throughout the literary publications, journals, and newspapers, these voices were framed by print media's apparatus that marked women as belonging to a sphere of difference. This marked difference highlights a contradictory outcome of women's emancipation and gender equality" --
