    At the intersections of early modern literature and history, Shakespeare and Women's Studies, Midwiving Subjects explores how Shakespearean drama and contemporary medical, religious and popular texts figured the midwife as a central producer of the body's cultural markers. In addition to attending most Englishwomen's births and testifying to their in extremis confessions about paternity, the midwife allegedly controlled the size of one's tongue and genitals at birth and was obligated to perform virginity exams, impotence tests and emergency baptisms. The signs of purity and masculinity, paternity and salvation were inherently open to interpretation, yet early modern culture authorized midwives to generate and announce them. Midwiving Subjects, then, challenges recent studies that read the midwife as a woman whose power was limited to a marginal and unruly birthroom community and instead uncovers the midwife's foundational role, not only in the rituals of reproduction, but in the process of cultural production itself. As a result of recent changes in managed healthcare and of increased attention to uncovering histories of women's experiences, midwives - past and present - are currently a subject of great interest. This book will appeal to readers interested in Shakespeare as well as the history of women and medicine.

    According to Confucius, "an educated woman is a worthless woman," but Tan Yunxian--born into an elite family, yet haunted by death, separations, and loneliness--is being raised by her grandparents to be of use. Her grandmother is one of only a handful of female doctors in China, and she teaches Yunxian the pillars of Chinese medicine, the Four Examinations--looking, listening, touching, and asking--something a man can never do with a female patient. From a young age, Yunxian learns about women's illnesses, many of which relate to childbearing, alongside a young midwife-in-training, Meiling. The two girls find fast friendship and a mutual purpose--despite the prohibition that a doctor should never touch blood while a midwife comes in frequent contact with it--and they vow to be forever friends, sharing in each other's joys and struggles. No mud, no lotus, they tell themselves: from adversity beauty can bloom. But when Yunxian is sent into an arranged marriage, her mother-in-law forbids her from seeing Meiling and from helping the women and girls in the household. Yunxian is to act like a proper wife--embroider bound-foot slippers, pluck instruments, recite poetry, give birth to sons, and stay forever within the walls of the family compound, the Garden of Fragrant Delights. How might a woman like Yunxian break free of these traditions, go on to treat women and girls from every level of society, and lead a life of such importance that many of her remedies are still used five centuries later? How might the power of friendship support or complicate these efforts?

    "Todo mito que nace renace. Todo mito que encarna reencarna". Obsesionado con la reina de Saba, Bos Mutas, un joven escritor contemporáneo, sale a buscarla por el mundo, igual que hicieron a lo largo de los siglos personajes históricos como Salomón, Tomás de Aquino y Gérard de Nerval. Y aunque la reina de Saba resulta inasible, Bos Mutas encuentra en su lugar a la muy terrenal Zahra Bayda, una partera somalí. De esa manera, el tiempo real del presente corre paralelo al tiempo inmemorial del mito. Obra de ficción basada en los viajes que la autora hizo con Médicos Sin Fronteras por Yemen, Etiopía y la frontera somalí --la geografía mágica y feroz del que alguna vez fuera el reino de Saba--, esta novela es un hermoso caleidoscopio, una puerta de entrada a mundos apasionantes, una audaz amalgama de géneros, épocas, ritmos profanos y bíblicos, crueldad y solidaridad, amor y guerra, dolor y curación. Laura Restrepo acompaña, con este emocionante relato, el eterno caminar de las mujeres migrantes, que pese a cojeras y tropiezos siempre se levantan, siguen adelante, aprenden a mirar cada vez más lejos y traspasan las fronteras del tiempo y el espacio. Canción de antiguos amantes esboza una propuesta seductora: ¿y si el gran himno del final de los tiempos no es el Apocalipsis? ¿Y si fuera más bien el Cantar de los cantares?

    "Todo mito que nace renace. Todo mito que encarna reencarna". Obsesionado con la reina de Saba, Bos Mutas, un joven escritor contemporáneo, sale a buscarla por el mundo, igual que hicieron a lo largo de los siglos personajes históricos como Salomón, Tomás de Aquino y Gérard de Nerval. Y aunque la reina de Saba resulta inasible, Bos Mutas encuentra en su lugar a la muy terrenal Zahra Bayda, una partera somalí. De esa manera, el tiempo real del presente corre paralelo al tiempo inmemorial del mito. Obra de ficción basada en los viajes que la autora hizo con Médicos Sin Fronteras por Yemen, Etiopía y la frontera somalí --la geografía mágica y feroz del que alguna vez fuera el reino de Saba--, esta novela es un hermoso caleidoscopio, una puerta de entrada a mundos apasionantes, una audaz amalgama de géneros, épocas, ritmos profanos y bíblicos, crueldad y solidaridad, amor y guerra, dolor y curación.

    "Bertie Jenkins has spent forty years serving as a midwife for her community in the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee. Out of all the mothers she's tended, none affects her more than the young teenager who shows up on her doorstep, injured, afraid, and expecting, one warm June day in 1943. As Bertie and her four sisters tenderly nurture Songbird back to health, the bond between the childless midwife and the motherless teen grows strong. But soon Songbird is forced to make a heartbreaking decision that will tear this little family apart. Thirty years later, the day after his father's funeral, Walker Wylie is stunned to learn he was adopted as an infant. The famous country singer enlists the help of adoption advocate Reese Chandler in the hopes of learning why he was abandoned by his birth parents. With the only clue he has in hand, Walker and Reese head deep into the Appalachian Mountains to track down Bertie Jenkins, the midwife who holds the secrets to Walker's past."--Page 4 of cover
