- W4366069964 abstract "The art of Cantonese opera features a variety of representations of love through various performance forms and works, irrespective of their distinctive spatial and temporal settings in China. Compared with Western contexts, the traditional Chinese mentality toward depictions of love, whether in literature or any other art form, was delicate and subtle, due to its alignment with conventional Confucian teachings stemming from the past. In this sense, it is feasible to relate the elusive lyrics of Cantonese opera to classical poetry, a connection that can be demonstrated by tracing the refined borrowings of the former from the latter. In relation to this delicacy in the presentation of love, the narration of stories in Cantonese opera associated with conjugal relationships, especially those pertaining to the issue of remarriage, is worth scrutinizing because remarriage (particularly of women) was seen as disgraceful in pre-modern China. There were very infrequent cases of divorce, which was only available to husbands (the action of “xiu” 休 in Chinese). Prominent Cantonese opera plots involving divorce and remarriage include The Phoenix Hairpin [Chai tou feng 釵頭鳳] and The Return of Lady Wenji [Wenji gui Han 文姬歸漢], which are derived from an account of a poet couple in the Southern Song dynasty (1127–1279) and historical records of the Eastern Han dynasty (25–220), respectively. These two stories share a desperate, tantalizing hope by their female characters to be with their true loves (their first husbands), but they are prevented by strong external forces from achieving satisfying conjugal relationships. The slim possibility of divorce from the women’s side has demonstrated different levels of feminine resistance against the established patriarchal norms of dominance." @default.
