¿Lo que más temían las mujeres? Partos mortales y embarazos de riesgo en palacio y en casas de pobres (Siglo de Oro con incursiones contemporáneas)

Publications: Contribution to journalArticle

Abstract

"Avisos de Viena" is an online academic journal offering new perspectives on Spanish cultural history. We offer short articles that take an interdisciplinary approach to a variety of research interests, such as the culture of childbirth, family networks, soundscape and aesthetics, or the social qualities of prose and theatre, which may be of interest to both academic readers and the wider public.

This issue covers maternal death in childbirth, aristocratic grandmothers and grandchildren, the semantics of miscarriage, and other topics in Spanish cultural history.
