立场

Her short “Lessons for Women” (Nüjie), written for her daughters, is the earliest surviving Chinese text on the conduct of women. It teaches humility, deference, diligence and devotion to the husband’s family, and for centuries it was read as a manual of submission. But it also argues that, if the ritual texts require husbands to control wives, wives must be able to serve them well – which is impossible without education. Girls, she says, should therefore be taught from the age of eight, as the classics prescribe for boys. Scholars dispute whether to read the work as securing her daughters’ position within the system or as a text later used beyond its intent.

生平与背景

Ban Zhao (c. 45–117) was the daughter of the historian Ban Biao and sister of Ban Gu, author of the “Book of Han”. Widowed young, she was called to court by Emperor He to complete her brother’s history after his death in prison, and she taught the empress and court ladies, who addressed her as “the Venerable Madam”. She accompanied her son to his provincial post; her dates are approximately known.
