  • Author : Stephanie Coontz
  • Publisher : Penguin
  • Release : 2006-02-28
  • ISBN : 1101118253
  • Pages : 448 pages

Download or read book Marriage a History written by Stephanie Coontz and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-02-28 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just when the clamor over "traditional" marriage couldn’t get any louder, along comes this groundbreaking book to ask, "What tradition?" In Marriage, a History, historian and marriage expert Stephanie Coontz takes readers from the marital intrigues of ancient Babylon to the torments of Victorian lovers to demonstrate how recent the idea of marrying for love is—and how absurd it would have seemed to most of our ancestors. It was when marriage moved into the emotional sphere in the nineteenth century, she argues, that it suffered as an institution just as it began to thrive as a personal relationship. This enlightening and hugely entertaining book brings intelligence, perspective, and wit to today’s marital debate.

Book The History of Human Marriage Volume 3

Download or read book The History of Human Marriage Volume 3 written by Edward Westermarck and published by Theclassics.Us. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ...according to Lane, there are not many men who have not divorced one wife, if they have been married for a long time, and not a few men in Egypt have in the course of two years married as many as twenty, thirty, or more wives; while there are women, not far advanced in age, who have been wives to a dozen or more men successively. Lane even heard of men who had been in the habit of taking a new wife almost every month.1 Burckhardt knew Arabs about forty-five years old who had had more than fifty different wives.2 Snouck Hurgronje states, on the other hand, that separation is rare in Acheh, in Sumatra, as compared with other Muhammadan countries; 8 and among the Muhammadans of India, according to Mr. Gait, the husband seldom exercises his right to divorce his wife without any special reason.4 This may be due to Hindu influence. With orthodox Hindus marriage is a religious sacrament which cannot be revoked. A woman convicted of adultery may be deprived of her status and turned out of her caste, but even in this case divorce in the ordinary sense is an impossibility; she cannot form a new connection and, often at least, remains in her husband's house on the footing of a slave.5 Again, the only remedy which a blameless wife has against an offending husband is to obtain a decree for her separate maintenance, such decree being practically equivalent to a decree for judicial separation.6 The law, however, was not always equally stringent.
