Virtue That Matters

Chastity Culture and Social Power in Chosŏn Korea (1392–1910)

Contenu

Virtue That Matters is a groundbreaking exploration of chastity culture in Chos¿n Korea that illustrates the interplay between state-led indoctrination, socio-legal changes, and gender relations. Jungwon Kim includes women's own writings and argues that chastity culture was a product of Confucianization, social forces, and individual agency.
