Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth examination of marriage in ancient Rome, providing a comprehensive analysis of the legal and social structures that shaped this fundamental institution. Unlike the modern concept of marriage, Roman marriage was a complex legal contract that varied in form and could have significant implications for the rights and status of both spouses. The author explores the three main types of marriage: confarreatio, coemptio, and usus, each of which had its own unique set of rituals and legal consequences. Beyond the legal framework, the book delves into the broader social and cultural aspects of Roman marriage, including the roles and expectations of husbands and wives, the importance of dowry and inheritance, and the legal rights and protections available to women. The author draws on a wide range of sources, including legal texts, literary works, and archaeological evidence, to provide a rich and nuanced portrait of marriage in ancient Rome. Through its examination of the legal, social, and cultural dimensions of Roman marriage, this book offers valuable insights into the lives of Roman women and families and provides a deeper understanding of the foundations of Roman society.
