Descrição: The social life and impact of actresses in Beijing and Tianjin China are examined, focusing on the elements that accounted for their rise, stage arts and social position, the different attitudes toward them and their struggle for survival. These actresses departed from the norms of Confucian womanhood and symbolically resisted the cultural hegemony of the male elite.
