Birthing the Nation

Sex, Science, and the Conception of Eighteenth-Century Britons

Omschrijving

Analyses two intertwined narratives that shaped 18th-century British life: the development of the modern British state, and the emergence of the man-midwife as the pre-eminent authority over sex and childbirth. This work shows how national, religious, ethnic, and gendered identities were experienced through and symbolized by birth and midwifery.
