Krátky popis
'A work of remarkable archival scholarship... extraordinary'
Harriet Baker'Illuminating and brave' Alison Light'A wonderful
history... intimate, fascinating and touching' Ian MortimerAn
immersive hidden history of the female body, with radical
implications for how we understand our bodies todaySex and
abortion, pregnancy and birth, feeding and rocking and washing:
these are embodied practices with a deep past. Yet the history of
the female body remains largely unknown – even unimagined.Combining
memoir with archival research, from fragments in medical texts,
trial transcripts, legal treatises, prayerbooks, letters, and
diaries, Erin Maglaque assembles a chorus of women’s voices from
the pre-modern past. We encounter a vanished past both strikingly
recognisable and strange, when ideas of the female body, sexuality,
work and pleasure were more varied, more unruly, and sometimes
freer.This is the invisible history of the female body – birthing,
caring, working, desiring. Reaching deep into the shared history of
women’s lives, Presence points towards a radical new way of
understanding our bodies today.'An important, original contribution
to modern feminist writing about the body' Gabriel
Weston'Immersive, revelatory and astonishing' Sophie Gilbert
