ESSAY ON: Depictions of Women in Chinese Cinematography

Number of Pages 8

This research paper: An 8 page observation that, like elsewhere in the world, women have not always been portrayed in a positive light by Chinese cinema. Depictions of the past have in many ways served to keep women in a subservient role to men, a subservience which has indeed been a very real part of womanhood in China. Fortunately Chinese cinema is slowly moving away from the demeaning depictions of women and toward depictions which have to potential to illuminate the real value of Chinese women to Chinese, and indeed the world, society. Contemporary depictions of women vary tremendously, however, in the accuracy of their detailing the positive role of women in Chinese society. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
