birth in european cultures tues 3rd weds 4th july 2012 oxford purpose of conference this conference aims to bring together leading specialists from a range of the medical humanities with healthcare professionals to explore the trope of the retelling of stories about pregnancy and birth while recent work has considered the way in which stories of exceptional pregnancies and unusual births have been told again and again over western history from greek mythology and the old testament until the present day the methodological and intellectual questions raised by these retellings have not been discussed in detail taking a very broad geographic and chronological focus europe from antiquity to the present day our objective is to encourage innovative interdisciplinary exchanges by addressing the following questions how did the growth of print culture in europe encourage the retelling of familiar birthing tales and how were new ones added why did some stories of pregnancy and birth circulate more widely than others when stories are retold which details of the original are always retained which are lost in the retelling and how and why do new accretions creep into the story sessions the gathering particularly looks to provide the opportunity for discussion and exchange on both substance and methodology between on the one hand a wide range of academic disciplines contributing to the medical humanities e g cultural history art history history of the book literary scholars and on the other hand health care practitioners who have been increasingly focused on the oral transmission of case histories midwives obstetricians and gynaecologists psychiatrists the four sessions proposed are thus wide ranging and deliberately aim to juxtapose contributions from academics and practitioners in the various sessions 1 the trope of repetition or why some tales of pregnancy and birth are retold 2 exploring accretion and loss how tales are retold across time antiquity to the present and across different geographic and cultural european contexts 3 who sees or experiences who tells and who reads repeated tales patients practitioners witnesses and readers 4 the significance of the material circulation of repeated tales in word and image keynote plenary session professor monica green arizona state university practical details the conference sessions
