Childbirth and the Display of Authority in Early Modern France - Women and Gender in the Early Modern World
Lianne McTavish
How could men appear to be trustworthy birth assistants at a time when women were associated with a bodily comprehension of childbirth? To answer this question, Lianne McTavish examines a range of sources, focusing on obstetrical treatises and pamphlets published in early modern France, looking in particular at the visual culture of childbirth.
