Abstract
This paper presents an investigation of the reception of female roles in Dream of the Red Chamber, a masterpiece of Chinese literature. First, we highlight that the novel reflects the traditions of classical Chinese society. Second, we explain the findings based on Jauss’s horizon of expectations theoretical framework and Hymes’s SPEAKING model methodology, and explain the respondent selection process. Third, we show the findings: women’s roles are influenced by the social structure, and norm compliance facilitates goal attainments. Fourth, we show conclusions that, although the partly depart from our initial hypothesis, partly coincide with the hypotheses and methodological approaches that other scholars have made to the novel.
