Mourning men in Kusō - zu : a debate on sexism in sixteenth and seventeenth century picture scrolls.

Bachelor thesis | Japanstudies (BA)
The Nine Stages of Decay have often been discussed in debates on sexism. However, the role of men in these scrolls is usually disregarded. The appearance of men in Kusō-zu reframes the view of women on these scrolls. Therefore the role of women is reassessed in this paper through research on the role of men.
