Conclusion. 330 $aWomen make up the vast majority of Protestant Christians in China-a largely faceless majority, as their stories too often go untold in scholarly research as well as popular media. This book writes Protestant Chinese women into the history of twenty-first-century China. It features the oral histories of over a dozen women, highlighting themes of spiritual transformation, politicized culture, social mobility, urbanization, and family life. Each subject narrates not only her own story, but that of her mother, as well, revealing a deeply personal dimension to the dramatic social change that has occurred in a matter of decades. By uncovering the stories of Christian women in China, Li Ma offers a unique window onto the interactions between femininity and Christianity, and onto the socioeconomic upheavals that mark recent Chinese history. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Oral History,$x2731-5681 606 $aOral history 606 $aChina$xHistory 606 $aSocial history 606 $aChristianity 606 $aFeminism 606 $aFeminist theory 606 $aOral History 606 $aHistory of China 606 $aSocial History 606 $aChristianity 606 $aFeminism and Feminist Theory 615 0$aOral history. 615 0$aChina$xHistory. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 0$aChristianity. 615 0$aFeminism. 615 0$aFeminist theory. 615 14$aOral History. 615 24$aHistory of China. 615 24$aSocial History. 615 24$aChristianity. 615 24$aFeminism and Feminist Theory. 676 $a951 676 $a951 700 $aMa$b Li$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01229060 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483022903321 996 $aChristianity, Femininity and Social Change in Contemporary China$92853148 997 $aUNINA
