The Legend of the White Snake, also known as Bai She Zhuan, is one of China’s most beloved folktales, with a history that stretches back more than a thousand years. The story centers on Bai Suzhen, a powerful white snake spirit who, after centuries of cultivation and meditation, transforms into a beautiful woman.

The climactic battle between Bai Suzhen and Fa Hai, a figure who threatens Bai’s relationship with Xu Xian, has been interpreted in many ways throughout Chinese history. Some see it as a conflict between individual freedom and institutional authority, others as a metaphor for the tension between Taoist and Buddhist worldviews, and still others as a commentary on gender roles and the power of female sexuality. The fact that Bai Suzhen fights while pregnant adds another layer of complexity to the tale, as she represents both the threatening power of the supernatural and the life-giving force of motherhood.
