Abstract:
I have termed Birthing Attila a creative-critical project since it is not only a collection of poems, or a critical compendium of methodologies and theories, but an alignment of the two in a mutually illuminating process. My creative work informs my critical, and, reflexively, my critical informs my creative. The Birthing Attila project engages with orthodox narratives of history and ideology, critiquing them, working against linear expectation, and identifying and dramatizing margins of society that are often subordinated or neglected in such discourses.

Abstract:
Over past centuries, childbirth has become increasingly medicalised, with a shift to hospital births and an overuse of interventions for women at low risk of childbirth complication. In response, there has been a move towards normalising birth which has grown in strength over recent years. In this thesis, I describe a programme of research which aimed to examine whether intrapartum birthing pool use could make an important contribution to normalising childbirth for low risk women. Maternity stakeholders differ in their views of intrapartum birthing pool use, with some emphasising its potential

Abstract:
This dissertation provides an ethnographic account of birthing practices among Raramuri women in Northern Mexico. The Raramuri practice of kin assisted birth is consonant with core cultural norms and social practices. Raramuri curers diagnose and treat illness, but they typically do not assist at birth, which is a deemed a normal part of the life course. Health is maintained by adhering to community norms of thinking well and acting well, through such behavioral ideals as non violence, generosity, reciprocity, and modesty. Pregnant women minimize risk at birth by conforming to these ideals. Th
