In Cultivating Femininity, Rebecca Corbett writes women back into this history and shows how tea practice for women was understood, articulated, and promoted in the Edo (1603-1868) and Meiji (1868-1912) periods. Viewing chanoyu from the lens of feminist and gender theory, she sheds new light on tea's undeniable influence on the formation of modern understandings of femininity in Japan. Cultivating Femininity offers a new perspective on the prevalence of tea practice among women in modern Japan. It presents a fresh, much-needed approach, one that will be appreciated by students and scholars of Japanese history, gender, and culture, as well as by tea practitioners. 606 $aWomen$zJapan$xEconomic conditions 606 $aWomen$zJapan$xSocial conditions 606 $aJapanese tea ceremony$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aJapanese tea ceremony$xHistory$y18th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWomen$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aWomen$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aJapanese tea ceremony$xHistory 615 0$aJapanese tea ceremony$xHistory 676 $a394.1/50952 700 $aCorbett$b Rebecca$0989748 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910265233103321 996 $aCultivating femininity$92263778 997 $aUNINA
