Need an research paper on the death of woman wang: a historical microcosm of china. Needs to be 6 pages. Please no plagiarism. This research tells that contrary to what the title will lead you to believe, the story is not about a woman named Wang. Rather, the book is about a series of characters and relationships whose stories take place in the Tan Cheng area of rural North-Eastern China. There are a number of themes running through the book that a reader must take into account in order to develop a better understanding of the way the book was written. Chapter 1 sets the tone for the book with a history of the Tan Cheng area and the introduction of the magistrate Huang Liu-Huang and the peasant view from the opinion of Pu Sung. Chapter 2 then shows us the extent of agricultural life in the area and the effect of the tax system on the people and the story of Liu-Ting-yuan. Chapter 3 is where he begins to deal with the title of the book through the death of Woman Peng. Chapter 4 shows the reader the nitty-gritty truth about the justice system of the era as applied to females, families and how the magistrate tried to protect those, specifically the women, whom he knew to be innocent of crimes they were accused of. The epilogue of the story is a wishful view of how justice could have been served during that time by having the gods punish the worthless husbands of the women whose tales were shared in the earlier part of the novel. Spence has managed to write a book that presents a gripping account of the lives of peasant farmers in a country where men are king and women, did not have an actual role, recognition, or position in society. Covering a span of 20 years story-wise in the area, the stories do not focus on a particular character or characters. Rather it tells the various stories of fictional people from the area. His stories are based on historical facts about the region stemming from the death of the Chinese at the hands of the Manchu, a period of famine, and the White Lotus uprising to name but a few of the historical incidents represented in the story-lines of each character. It is important to note that while the people that he wrote about in the book are fictional, Spence, being a Chinese history buff, knew better than to fictionalize historical details of the era.
