He-Yin Zhen (ca. 1884-1920?) was a theorist who figured centrally in the birth of Chinese feminism. Unlike her contemporaries, she was concerned less with China's fate as a nation and more with the relationship among patriarchy, imperialism, capitalism, and gender subjugation as global historical problems. This volume, the first translation and study of He-Yin's work in English, critically reconstructs early twentieth-century Chinese feminist thought in a transnational context by juxtaposing He-Yin Zhen's writing against works by two better-known male interlocutors of her time.
The editors begin with a detailed analysis of He-Yin Zhen's life and thought. They then present annotated translations of six of her major essays, as well as two foundational tracts by her male contemporaries, Jin Tianhe (1874-1947) and Liang Qichao (1873–1929), to which He-Yin's work responds and with which it engages. Jin, a poet and educator, and Liang, a philosopher and journalist, understood feminism as a paternalistic cause that liberals like themselves should defend. He-Yin presents an alternative conception that draws upon anarchism and other radical trends. Ahead of her time, He-Yin Zhen complicates conventional accounts of feminism and China's history, offering original perspectives on sex, gender, labor, and power that remain relevant today.

In this analytical mode, “woman”—rendered by He-Yin Zhen in various incommensurable but related semantic forms—was far from a naturalized figure of biological or cultural subordination.10 Rather, she was the product
【The terms we have rendered “women” (or “female”) include nüzi 女子, funü 婦女, furen 婦人,
and, on occasion, nüxing 女性 (see the later discussion in this introduction). In the cases of her
essay titles, 女子非軍備主義 (“On Feminist Antimilitarism”) and 女子宣告書 (“The Feminist
Manifesto”), we gloss nüzi 女子 not as “women’s” but as “feminist.” He-Yin also uses wunüzi 吾
女子, which we render “we women.” The term nüjie 女界 is rendered “women,” “womanhood,”
and “women’s world.” We use “man” or “men” to render nanzi 男子 and zhangfu 丈夫.】

Since modern times, those without any land have become the majority: one out of ten is a landlord, and nine out of ten are tenant farmers, resulting in the landlord getting richer and the tillers getting poorer. If by accidental misfortune there is the disaster of a drought or flood, then the tillers must flee and lose everything. I heard that one year some time ago in Shanxi, a drought covered more than a thousand li; more recently, there were disasters in Xuhai, northern Anhui, Hunan, and Yunnan, where the number of people who had to flee was in the millions. When they came upon a slightly
more well-off area, weak little girls vied to sell themselves to the rich. Some thus garnered several thousand cash. Extending this logic, over the past
several centuries, the people have suffered from... (查看原文)

何殷震的1907年的文章振聋发聩。“这个分析性范畴就是‘男女有别’，它不仅涵盖男人和女人之间性别化的社会关系，而且在更广泛的意义上表示过去与现在、中国与世界、政治与正义、法律和礼仪与性别化的知识形式、互动以及社会组织之间的性别化的社会关系。” "何殷震并没有严格区分过去的（19世纪以前）中华帝国和现在这个愈趋全球一体化的帝国主义-资本主义世界。相反，她认为过去与现在都在不断地制造和产生不公正。不公... 何殷震的1907年的文章振聋发聩。“这个分析性范畴就是‘男女有别’，它不仅涵盖男人和女人之间性别化的社会关系，而且在更广泛的意义上表示过去与现在、中国与世界、政治与正义、法律和礼仪与性别化的知识形式、互动以及社会组织之间的性别化的社会关系。” "何殷震并没有严格区分过去的（19世纪以前）中华帝国和现在这个愈趋全球一体化的帝国主义-资本主义世界。相反，她认为过去与现在都在不断地制造和产生不公正。不公正的历史性并不仅仅是男性加害于女性（换言之，过去与现在并不是单单让女性成为受害者）；相反，历史的形成无非是（如法国年鉴学派所谓）长时段的方式持续不断地再生产不公正，以及财富与权利的不平等，其具体表现形式可以通过‘女性’的范畴集中体现出来。” (展开)

读何震批中国男性女权主义者的男性中心本质，不由啧啧。她说：“中国男子崇拜强权，以为欧美日本为今日文明之国，均稍与女子以自由，若仿行其制，于一己之妻女，禁其缠足，使之入学，授以普通知识，则中外人士，必将称为文明……” 简直不给进步男性们丝毫面子！

读何殷震真的振聋发聩，虽然并不总是同意，但极其有启发。难道《男女》这本学术期刊也是从这里开始的吗？
