Facsimiles of primary texts on eighteenth-century midwifery and childbirth. Gives readers an understanding of midwives, midwifery students, and women in labour. This twelve-volume collection comprises pamphlets, treatises, lectures for midwifery students, texts on the establishment of lying-in hospitals, and catalogues of obstetrical apparatuses collected by male-midwives. Important themes include medical developments, 'freaks of nature', women's 'conduct' and the legal and societal implications of birth and motherhood. Gender is a central issue in works that address the efficacy and propriety of midwifery practice and whether men or women are best suited to the job.
