abstract = {This essay explores the writings of Shi Meiyu, a Chinese woman medical missionary,
concerning the nursing school she ran in Jiujiang, China from 1896 to 1920. During
this period, in both the writings of Western missionaries and Chinese reformers, images
of sick Chinese women were frequently used to condemn many aspects of Chinese
society. My essay looks at the ways that Shi Meiyu, in her discussions of the health of
Chinese women, shifted the focus to a vision of Chinese women as skilled healers. 1 also
explore Shi's search for the funding to adapt her nursing school to the increasing
emphasis on «scientificn medicine.},
