Reflections on Pregnancy and Childbirth. The Perspective of Critical Discourse Analysis
Abstract
The topic of discussion is the discourse that shapes around pregnancy
and childbirth in the past about two hundred years in Western countries
– the mechanisms of its development, the most important manifestations
and possible consequences. Theoretical basis for this problem
is – Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), and the main inspiration was the
concept of M. Foucault – how according to the author this discourse is
constructed, imposed and reproduced. „(...) in every society the production
of discourse is at once controlled, selected, organized and subjected
to redistribution by a number of procedures, whose role is to (...)
take over the randomness of events (...)” writes Foucault. The purpose
of the following discussion is, therefore, an attempt to show these
„procedures” – methods and measures that are imposing and strengthen
the medical discourse on pregnancy, childbirth, and more broadly the
female body.
