摘要
Written as a response to Katherine Bowie's essay ("Eunuchs in Vietnam: What's Missing?'), this piece presents some introductor y research on the role of eunuchs in the cour t culture and the everyday administration of imperial Vietnam during the Nguyen dynasty (1802-1945). In addition to explaining the role of eunuchs in Vietnamese historiography, this essay critically evaluates claims about eunuchs in nineteenth-century Vietnam through Vietnamese sources, including secondary research and primary sources.
