Abstract

Examining the survival status of women under the feudal system is of great significance for the stable development of social structure. Drama therapy can establish the resonance of the audience with the fate of female characters in drama, promoting attention and resolution of social issues. As a classic ancient theatrical literary work, ‘The Jade Hairpin’ provides rich materials and perspectives for understanding the plight of women in feudal society. This study uses a combination of text analysis and historical research to critique the limitations and oppression faced by the female characters of the work. Reflecting on the fate of women and awakening subjectivity in dramatic literature provides a unique perspective for inspiring audiences to think about gender issues in society.
