A brief history of forceps and childbirth, from the author of The Midwife of Venice
I am an underachiever when it comes to birthing babies. Once was enough. But I became interested in midwifery when I was in Venice a few years ago and conceived the protagonist of my latest novel: Hannah, a 16th-century midwife. I wanted her to be the best midwife in Venice. That, after all, is the stuff of which heroines are made. So I bestowed upon her a technical advantage: birthing spoons, a rudimentary form of forceps fashioned from two spoon ladles and hinged in the middle.
Porodní bába z Benátek
O knize Porodní bába z Benátek Píše se rok 1575 a Hanna je i přes své mládí nejvyhlášenější porodní bábou v Benátkách. Mohla by si šťastně žít, jenže jejího milovaného manžela zajali na obchodní plavbě a drží ho na Maltě jako otroka. Hanna tajně používá při porodech svůj vlastní vynález, „porodní lžíce“. Taková pomůcka není povolena, a proto je to velmi nebezpečné. Jednoho dne se Hanně naskytne příležitost získat dost peněz, takže by mohla svého Izáka vykoupit.
by Roberta Rich Ebury press, paperback £7.99 Constantinople in the 16th century provides a colourful background for Roberta Rich’s second novel. In fact it is a sequel, but stands equally well on its own, such is the pulling power of the story and the twists and turns of good and bad. Hannah is the midwife, a Jewish wife called into the Harem of Murat III when required.
