Description

Originally published in 1990, this Routledge collection examines motherhood in pre-industrial England through interdisciplinary scholarship. Bringing together experts in social history, medical history, demography, women's studies, and family history, the volume explores women's concepts of maternity, pregnancy experiences, childbirth practices, and wet nursing traditions. The essays analyse the fostering and disciplining of children, alongside historical perspectives on child abandonment and neglect in pre-industrial society. This unique compilation provides comprehensive insights into maternal roles, reproductive experiences, and child-rearing practices that shaped family life in early modern England, offering scholars and students essential primary and secondary perspectives on women's lived experiences during this formative historical period.
