民族国家建设场域中的女子教育变革——以晚清女子学堂为中心

Reforms in Women's Education as Part of Nation-State Building——Based on Women's Schools in Late Qing Dynasty

民族国家建设是近代中国政治变革的主题,它贯穿并渗透女子教育的发展。在民族国家建设的话语体系下,晚清女子教育经历了从相夫教子到强国保种的话语变革,从内闱之学到公共事业的空间转换,在教学内容上虽主要体现的是对男权的依附,但女性的社会角色在现代化的曙光中经历了从贤妻良母到职业女性的角色重塑。

Nation-state building that is a central theme in political changes in modern China also permeates through the development of women＇s education. In the name of nation-state building, women＇s education in late Qing dynasty witnessed changes in the articulation of its purposes from ＂caring for the husband and educating the children as women＇s duty＂ to ＂serving the country by producing sons＂, in location from private domestic schools to public schools, in status of women from their dependency on men to their awakening to their independence, and in their roles from ＂being good wife and loving mother＂ to professional women.
