ABSTRACT
Peking Female High Normal College (PKFHNC) is the first national institution
of female higher education established by Chinese in modern China. In the first
half of the 20th century, it was an important place and center of female higher
education in China. With the shift of gender conception, the college has become
an important sign of interaction among society, culture, and education, as well
as its transition and transformation. However, affected by both research orientation
of neutralization and traditional historical approach after the establishment of
People’s Republic of China (PRC), it has been marginalized in historiography of
education. Therefore, it has been forgotten by people gradually and even with some
misunderstandings. To restore its historical truth and true features, the position
and historical significance of PKFHNC should be revealed and explicated.
