This paper explores the history of the maternal imagination during the 18th century, along with its national variations in the English and in the French contexts. The alleged faculty of the mother's fancy to modify the normal development of the foetus is examined here from the point of view of its cultural reinterpretations, its epistemological justification and its normative consequences.
