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.
