Description

Explore the complex history of motherhood through this scholarly collection from Routledge. Originally published in 1990, this volume addresses the growing academic interest in women's lives in pre-industrial England. It brings together a diverse group of experts from various fields, including social and medical history, demography, women's studies, and family history. This book provides a deep look into the specific experiences of women during this era. Readers can examine how maternity was understood, the realities of pregnancy and childbirth, and the role of wet nursing. The text also covers how children were raised, disciplined, or even abandoned in pre-industrial society. By combining research from specialists whose work might not typically appear in a single volume, this book offers a comprehensive view of the social structures and personal experiences that defined motherhood in this historical period.
