Description
The birth of a new human being has been, is, and always will be a significant event in the life of an individual, family, and community, across all human societies. This moment has been and still largely is surrounded by many superstitions and myths in various societies, demanding respect, humility, and reverence. When new life is born, nothing will be as it was before. A woman, giving the opportunity for new life to come into the world, opens her body, but equally her soul. Both require care. The collective monograph Birth, subtitled Care, opens the relevant topic from various perspectives, defined by the perspectives of actors, the period, and the environment. The book accompanies the processes of caring for the body, but also for the soul, focusing on the first moments of life – the life of the child, the life of the woman as a mother, the life of the family unit, which transforms with the arrival of a new member, as well as the community, which reacts to this transitional state.
