Ban Zhao was a prominent writer of the [[Han Dynasty]], known chiefly for her ''Admonitions for Women'', a guide for women's upright behavior. In it, Ban identifies seven chief virtues for a woman to cultivate: humility, subservience, cleanliness, industriousness, obedience, self-abasement, and resignation.
Her brother [[Ban Gu]] was also a prominent historian of the time.
