Description

This comprehensive collection examines obstetrical practice and theory during the British Enlightenment, focusing on the evolving role of male-midwives and professional competition in childbirth attendance. The volume brings together primary sources including pamphlets, treatises, and lecture notes designed for midwifery students, alongside documentation of lying-in hospital establishments and catalogues of obstetrical instruments collected by practising male-midwives. Scholars studying the history of obstetrics and medical professionalization will find valuable insights into how gender dynamics shaped the emergence of male participation in midwifery during this pivotal period. The set provides essential primary and secondary materials for understanding the transformation of British childbirth practices and the institutional development of maternity care in the 18th century.
