This book writes Protestant Chinese women into the history of twenty-first-century China. It features the oral histories of over a dozen women, highlighting themes of spiritual transformation, politicized culture, social mobility, urbanization, and family life. Each subject narrates not only her own story, but that of her mother, as well, revealing a deeply personal dimension to the dramatic social change that has occurred in a matter of decades. By uncovering the stories of Christian women in China, Li Ma offers a unique window onto the interactions between femininity and Christianity, and onto the socioeconomic upheavals that mark recent Chinese history. -- $c Provided by publisher, page 4 of cover. 650 0 $a Christian women $z China. 650 0 $a Christian women $z China $x Social conditions $y 21st century. 651 0 $a China $x Religion. $x Religion. 830 0 $a Palgrave studies in oral history. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317023207.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C9CCC2F6807011EABE26D64B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
