Book Incestuous and Close kin Marriage in Ancient Egypt and Persia

Download or read book Incestuous and Close kin Marriage in Ancient Egypt and Persia written by Paul John Frandsen and published by Museum Tusculanum Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For both ancient Egypt and Iran, as a cultural feature, incestuous relationships are usually dismissed on the grounds that they are only found as the exception, being allowed for royalty as representatives for the divine on earth, or that the evidence for such relationships are unreliable. Neither view, from the perspective of this study, is tenable. This work examines the evidence for marriage and sexual relations between siblings, and between a parent and child, in ancient Egypt and pre-Islamic Iran. The book restricts its examination to incestuous relationships between members of non-royal nuclear families and puts forth arguments against the generally held axiom that the prohibition of incest is a universal phenomenon.

Book Kinship  Islam  and the Politics of Marriage in Jordan

Download or read book Kinship Islam and the Politics of Marriage in Jordan written by Geoffrey F. Hughes and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2021-06 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Kinship, Islam, and the Politics of Marriage in Jordan, Geoffrey Hughes sets out to trace the "marriage crisis" in Jordan and the Middle East. Rapid institutional, technological, and intellectual shifts in Jordan have challenged the traditional notions of marriage and the role of powerful patrilineal kin groups in society by promoting an alternative ideal of romantic love between husband and wife. Drawing on many years of fieldwork in rural Jordan, Kinship, Islam, and the Politics of Marriage in Jordan provides a firsthand look at how expectations around marriage are changing for young people in the Middle East even as they are still expected to raise money for housing, bridewealth, and a wedding. Kinship, Islam, and the Politics of Marriage in Jordan offers an intriguing look at the contrasts between the traditional values and social practices of rural Jordanians around marriage and the challenges and expectations of young people as their families negotiate the concept of kinship as part of the future of politics, family dynamics, and religious devotion

Book The Marriage of Near Kin

Download or read book The Marriage of Near Kin written by Alfred Henry Huth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-08 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Marriage of Near Kin: Considered With Respect to the Law of Nations, the Results of Experience, and the Teachings of Biology 0f the many shortcomings of the work the author is fully aware; but he does not pretend to have attempted exhaustive inquiry, for which, in the present state of our knowledge, a lifetime would be too short. He will be satis fed if he has only succeeded in showing how rotten is the foundation of what many people accept as demonstrated truths, leaving to others the task of building a worthier edifice. For every statement the author has given a refer ence to his authority, which with the index to Authors quoted is amply suficient for verification he hopes, therefore, that if his work does not help to decide the question as to the advisability of marriage between near hin, it will at least serve as a hand-book to the literature of the subject, and prevent certain authors from assuming as demonstrated, a question whose investigation is as yet.

Book The Marriage of Near Kin

Download or read book The Marriage of Near Kin written by Alfred Henry Huth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Marriage of Near Kin: Considered With Respect to the Laws of Nations, the Results of Biology Though many writers have treated on the subject of consanguineous marriage, from many points of view, no one has hitherto come forward with a generalization of their work, which lies scattered and buried in a mass of pamphlets and periodical literature, difficult to hear of, difficult to find, and requiring considerable time and thought to digest. The consequence has been that people have been unable to judge of the relative value of the various observations they may read or make, and from a want of the necessary perspective are liable to draw wholly wrong and sometimes ridiculous conclusions. In this work the author has endeavoured to gather together everything of importance that has been written upon the subject; to arrange and classify it, to weigh the evidence on either side, to reject what is worthless, and point out the value of what remains. In this investigation he has attempted to divest himself of all prejudice, whether of tradition or custom, which might tend to warp his judgment, and has, therefore, often found himself obliged to treat as debatable, assumptions which inveterate association has rightly made shameful to doubt, but which, undisturbed, would make the discovery of truth impossible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Marriage of First Cousins The question of kinship in marriage, within what degrees it should be permitted, and whether near of kin should be allowed and even encouraged to marry has attracted attention and provoked discussion from very early times. Reasoned Objection to marriages Of near kin on the grounds Of harm to the Offspring, however, seems to be Of relatively late growth. Plato, in the Laws, says that the reason why such marriages are forbidden (he is re ferring to the marriage Of brother and sister) is simply habit and custom, as were such marriages allowed people would marry those most like themselves, which would prevent the proper mixture of character and property.
