A Marriage in China

A Marriage in China by Mrs. Archibald Little is a compelling narrative that explores the customs, challenges, and cultural nuances surrounding marriage in late 19th-century China. Drawing from her personal experiences and observations as a British woman living in the region, Little offers a rare Western perspective on Chinese matrimonial traditions. The work highlights gender roles, societal expectations, and the contrast between Eastern and Western values, shedding light on the complexities of cross-cultural understanding during a time of significant social and political change.
