Unborn in literature is an indication of how pro-life -- or anti-life -- certain literature is. Most classical literature is searchable online and this is an easy, superb way to ascertain the views of an author on this fundamental issue.
Charles Dickens
Charles Dickens frequently used the term "unborn", at least a total of 21 times including many of his most prominent works.
Shakespeare
William Shakespeare used "unborn" a total of 9 times, including as an adjective to a thought, time, or event.
Bible
The Bible (ESV) expressly mentions "unborn" twice: Psalm 22:31 and Psalm 78:6 . The Bible contains many additional references to the unborn child without expressly using the term "unborn".
Notably, the King James Version omits any express reference to the term "unborn".
