This paper aims to distinguish the common opinion from Prof. Susumu Fuma's view on the widowhood position in the Imperial China and to compare the former with the latter. Through this effort the author further develops the new hypothesis concerning the enforced remarriage customs in the Ch'ing dynasty era. According to the common opinion, in this era, the widow manages the family assets on behalf of her deceased husband. In the case of the absence of the son, she has the right of adopting the son. When she remarriages, this right disappears. Whether she remarriages or not is supposed to be the matter of her own decision in which nobody should interfere. Recently Prof. Fuma has objected against this understanding. He asserts that the widow in the Sung dynasty enjoys the above mentioned right but that the counterpart in the Ming and Ch'ing dynasty era has the very limited execution of the right, so that she is generally forced to remarriage regardless of her will.
