WANG Guojun.Staging Personhood:Costuming in Early Qing Drama.

In his excellent new book Staging Personhood, Wang Guojun explores theatrical costuming not just for what it can tell us about performance history, but as a way of examining attitudes toward changes in ethnic and gender relations in the Qing dynasty. As Wang himself puts it in his epilogue, " Since hairstyle and clothing were at the center of ethnic conflicts, theatrical costuming served as an effective -if not the only-avenue for theatrical producers to respond to changing ethnic and gender relations."
