Compared with gentlemen of the same age, Lin Hsien-Tang held a more liberal and open mind toward women and the equal status between men and women. Therefore, it's invaluable to explore the influence Lin Hsien-Tang has exerted on his wives, daughters, daughters-in-law, brothers and wives of his cousins he frequently contacted and the relationship between those women and Lin Hsien-Tang. Based on The Diary of Lin Hsien-Tang and diaries of Yang Shui-Hsin, Lin Hsien-Tang's wife and Chen Ling, his concubine, the author reconstructs the images of the women in Lin Hsien-Tang's life. The result of the initial research reveals that the positive influence of Lin Hsien-Tang on the women around him can be illustrated from the following three perspectives: firstly, he didn't impose restrictions on their daily conducts, but encouraged them to participate in public affairs; secondly, he played an active role in encouraging women to receive education; thirdly, he took care of his women and settled the disputes among them. As a result, after the war, Wu, Su-Chen and Tseng, Chu-Ju were elected as Assembly members. Chang, Yueh-Chu set up the "Shenzhai Buddhist Park" to promote Buddhism. They became women leaders or religious leaders, which was undoubtedly related to Lin Hsien-Tang's impact on them. In conclusion, Lin Hsien-Tang respected his wives and took care of his daughters and daughters-in-law, serving as the backbone of the survivors in the family. He was also wiling to give instructions to women who were ready to learn, which has indicated that the open-minded paternity shown in Lin Hsien-Tang helped women to pursue freedom and increase their knowledge rather than imposing restrictions on them.
