CHE SIGNIFICA SOOTERKIN IN INGLESE
Sooterkin
Un sooterkin è una piccola creatura leggendaria sulla dimensione di un topo che alcune donne sono state ritenute capaci di dare alla luce. L'origine di questa fantasia inizialmente fantasiosa risale al XVIII secolo e fu considerata fattuale da alcuni eminenti medici del giorno. È attribuito ad una tendenza alle donne olandesi a sedersi frequentemente sulle stufe oa utilizzarle sotto le loro sottogonne per mantenerle calde, provocando così l'allevamento di un piccolo tipo di animale che, quando matura, sarebbe nato. Il medico inglese John Maubray ha pubblicato un lavoro intitolato Il medico femminile, in cui ha proposto che era possibile per le donne dare origine a sooterkins. Maubray era un avvocato per l'impressione materna, una convinzione diffusa che la concezione e la gravidanza potrebbero essere influenzati da ciò che la madre incinta sognava o vide. Maubray ha avvertito alle donne in gravidanza che l'eccessiva familiarità con gli animali domestici potrebbe causare i loro bambini a somigliare a quegli animali. Era coinvolto nel caso di Mary Toft, che sembrava difendere la sua teoria partendo dai conigli, anche se l'intero affare si è rivelato una truffa.
