This study examines four long-lasting cultural constructions of childbirth: 1) The supremacy of the male 2) Theoretical, spiritual and political natality versus childbirth 3) The supremacy of the female 4) Harmony between spiritual/theoretical natality and childbirth. The theoretical part is based on Hannah Arendt's philosophy of natality.
