| The scroll's full title, âAdmonitions of the Instructress to the Court Ladiesâ, indicates the work's moralising tone. The scroll's protagonist is the court instructress who advises the ladies of the palace on correct behaviour. The poem was originally written around AD 290 to reprimand Empress Jia, who was accused of using her influence to manipulate the emperor and murder rivals, during an unstable time in Chinese history known as the Period of Disunion. |
