Acknowledgements
I would like to express my gratitude to Cambria Press for publishingmy book, in particular to Director Toni Tan, the review committee, the production editors, the cover designers, and the entire staff of Cambria Press.
I am extremely grateful to my advisor, Professor Sue-Ellen Case. This completion of this book was possible because of her insightful advice, great concern, and constant supervision. I am fortunate to have such a distinguished brilliant scholar as my mentor whose expertise in feminism and theories has guided me to a great extent. I have learned much from her.
I would also like to express my gratitude to Professor Daphne Lei, Professor Haiping Yan, and Professor Susan Foster. I am thankful for the support from the faculty members in the Department of Theater at UCLA, especially Professor Carol Sorgenfrei, Professor Shelley Salamensky, Professor Gil Cates, and Anna Wieczorek. The interdisciplinary academic courses at UCLA, such as Professor Rachel Lee’s seminar and German Professor Erika Fisher-Lichte’s course, helped broaden my horizons.
