The Confucian Four Books for Women describes the importance of being in compliance with set of standards that define femininity. The form takes on the concept of compliance as the text can be hidden or revealed if closed or opened.

The excerpt is taken from chapter seven, “Harmony with Younger Brothers and Sisters-in-Law”, from The Confucian Four Books for Women translated by Ann A. Pang-White.
