The Body and Military Masculinity in Late Qing and Early Republican China: The Art of Governing Soldiers
Nicolas Schillinger
This study examines the cultural effects of China’s adoption of a European military model in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It argues that there was a conceptual reconfiguration of Chinese masculinity and citizenship and focuses on how the body was conceived, shaped by physical fitness and medical practices, and controlled.
