SUMMARY:New Voices Women's Ideas in the History of Medicine
DESCRIPTION:Viktorya Vasilyan: A History of Breastfeeding: Its Iconography and Medical Importance \n\n\n\n\n\nDuring human history\, infants were fed human milk for survival\, either through breastfeeding by their mothers or adoptive breastfeeding by other women. From antiquity to today\, breastfeeding has been valued\, reflected in mythology\, philosophy\, art\, and religion worldwide. In ancient Armenia\, it was prized for its health benefits\, with wet nurses serving the upper classes while rural women breastfed for economic reasons. Colostrum was once deemed harmful but gained recognition in 1699 through Michael Ettmüller. During the European Renaissance\, breastfeeding saw renewed appreciation in art\, with depictions like suckler Lady and suckler Eve symbolising respect for motherhood. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFigures such as Hildegard of Bingen and Regina Areshian\, founder of the Research Center of Maternal and Child Health Protection in Armenia\, studied maternal hygiene and wet nursing. This work explores sociological\, medical\, and moral treatises on these themes\, informed by research on the Virgo Lactans and Virgin of Humility. Iconography studies\, such as those by Williamson\, Sperling\, Rivera\, and Bergmann\, provide critical insights into the Eve-Mary relationship and sacred images\, though scholarly consensus on breastfeeding and wet nursing in the Middle Ages remains elusive. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker…\n \n\n\n\n\nViktorya Vasilyan holds a PhD in History and serves as a researcher and the head of the Scientific Organisational Department at the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography\, NAS RA. Additionally\, she is a lecturer at the Traditional Medicine University of Armenia. Currently\, she manages the “100 Archaeological Monuments of Armenia” project\, an initiative aimed at exploring and documenting significant archaeological sites across the nation. More information about this project is available at https://ama100.am/en. She is also honoured to serve as a Goodwill Ambassador for Peace\, Human Rights\, and Humanity with the IHRO in Armenia. \n\nEveryone is welcome to attend.

SUMMARY:New Voices Women's Ideas in the History of Medicine
DESCRIPTION:Martina Guzzetti: Pregnant Women’s Wellbeing in Jane Sharp’s “The Midwives’ Book” (1671) \n\n\n\n\n\nWomen’s health\, wellbeing\, and medical conditions have always been at the centre of gendered debates concerning\, among other things\, who has the necessary knowledge and authority to discuss and provide advice about them. Of the many branches of medicine involved in these debates\, midwifery certainly holds a prominent position: in particular\, between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries\, these controversies saw the rivalry between midwives and the emerging men-midwives encapsulated in their own publications. While men’s textbooks on midwifery were limited to the description of women’s anatomy and the discussion of the birth event itself (without taking into consideration what happened to women before\, during\, and after pregnancy)\, the midwives’ manuals offered a different point of view\, \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nthat is\, one of a skilled practitioner (despite the misogynist stereotypes) who could also share with her patients the same experience\, thus having access to a kind of knowledge which went beyond the purely technical one. This contribution deals in particular with Jane Sharp’s The Midwives’ Book (1671) and offers to focus precisely on an aspect often overlooked in men’s textbooks\, that is\, pregnant women’s wellbeing\, be it physical and/or mental. The analysis considers the creation of discourses related\, for example\, to factors helping the conception of a child\, to easing labour\, and to preventing diseases after childbirth. In the discussion\, particular attention will be devoted to the peculiar connection between midwives and pregnant women\, and to the references to professional and private experience used to back up such knowledge. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nAbout the Speaker…\n \n\n\n\n\nMartina Guzzetti is a Post-Doctoral Researcher and Lecturer of English Language and Linguistics at the University of Insubria and the University of Milan. Her research is based around language and gender studies in historical perspective\, with a focus on news discourse\, lexicography\, and the popularisation of medical knowledge. She is currently working on a project about pregnant women’s wellbeing in midwifery manuals and domestic dictionaries. \n\n  \nEveryone is welcome to attend.
