Thesis (M.S.)--University of California, Davis, 2008.

The two essays comprising this thesis explore a symbolic, non-western, non-contemporary, class-privileged, and dominantly masculine world: the gentry and the Imperial Courts in the transition from China's Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. In this period between 1573 and 1722, I address how changing textile fashions were germane to identity construction, not unlike those in the modern western world. I also track some patterns within these processes by using cultural studies/fashion studies concepts, such as agency and hegemony. Examining the interpenetration of ideology, gender, and sociopolitical economy and aesthetics in Imperial clothing, provides a provocative lens through which to consider and perhaps rethink current fashion concepts.

520 $a This project led me to China, where I had the opportunity to conduct research. My methodology includes both object (appearance) interpretation, and cultural discourse analysis. The Forbidden Palace and Ding Ling Museums provided much of the primary research in the form of robes and textiles, particularly from the tomb of the Wanli Emperor, while interdisciplinary discourse was supplied by interviews with Chinese costume curators and scores of texts, both primary and secondary, on history, art and costume history, anthropology, philosophy and symbolism.
520 $a Covering the deterioration of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), a dynasty that ended in conspicuous wealth, decadence and corruption; and the establishment of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1912), this study examines the transitional years when the entire nation experienced a fundamental change in all aspects of its social order. A remarkably thriving, commercially and industrially based economy was supported by unprecedented population growth and intense urbanization. A radical new outlook, focused on comfort and enjoyment, was interrogating the traditional Confucian philosophy of life. This emerging culture, encouraged by the idea that wealth was the noblest goal, was carefree and pleasure seeking. A new paradigm was being established.
