The leading elements in this volume are the
cultural representation of birth and the forms through which its narration and representation develop in the
figurative arts , through
historical references ,
mythological tales and
legends ,
traditions ,
customs and
habits . The influence of
myth ,
language and
artistic expression on our cultural representation of
procreation is manifest, and this way of “narrating” birth resists even today, although it comes into conflict with a more scientific vision of
pregnancy and
childbirth .
With this book we believe we have contributed to an in-depth examination of
illness narratives , thus favouring the search for a convergence between medical language in the sector and the language of cultural experience so that
evidence-based medicine does not clash with
narrative-based medicine , but that the two languages come together towards a reciprocity that will strengthen the alliance between physician and patient.
