Imagining the Fetus: The Unborn in Myth, Religion, and Culture - American Academy of Religion Cultural Criticism series

Law, Jane Marie (Associate Professor of Japanese Religion, Associate Professor of Japanese Religion, Cornell University)

This volume presents essays that explore the depiction of the fetus in the world's major religious traditions, finding some striking commonalities as well as intriguing differences. Among the themes that emerge is the tendency to conceive of the fetus as somehow independent of the mother's body - as in the case of the Buddha, who is described as inhabiting a palace while gestating in the womb. On the other hand, the fetus can also symbolically represent profoundhuman needs and emotions, such as the universal experience of vulnerability. The authors note how the advent of the fetal sonogram has transformed how people everywhere imagine the unborn today, giving rise to a narrow range of decidedly literal questions about personhood, gender, anddisability.
