Synopsis
This interdisciplinary study combines legal, historical and literary approaches to the practice and theory of marriage in Shakespeare's time, and discovers a wide range of examples in a selection of Shakespeare's plays., This interdisciplinary study combines legal, historical and literary approaches to the practice and theory of marriage in Shakespeare's time. It uses the history of English law and the history of the contexts of law to study a wide range of Shakespeare's plays and poems. The authors approach the legal history of marriage as part of cultural history. The household was viewed as the basic unit of Elizabethan society, but many aspects of marriage were controversial, and the law relating to marriage was uncertain and confusing, leading to bitter disagreements over the proper modes for marriage choice and conduct. The authors point out numerous instances within Shakespeare's plays of the conflict over status, gender relations, property, religious belief and individual autonomy versus community control. By achieving a better understanding of these issues, the book illuminates both Shakespeare's work and his age., Combines legal, historical and literary approaches to marriage in Shakespeare's time and in his plays.

    My book arrived in good condition. Packaging was a rigid cardboard mailer, and it protected my book well. It was shipped in a reasonable amount of time, but I was still prompted to reach out to inquire further about it. Seller communication was very good, answering me within 24-hours. I was told shipping can take 9-15 days to happen... it arrived within 10 days after purchase. I would purchase from this seller again. Two thumbs up!

    I recently purchased a book from this Seller, and I couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience. The book arrived in excellent condition, exactly as described. It was packaged in a sturdy, reusable cardboard envelope using no plastic at all. Delivery was surprisingly fast, exceeding my expectations. I highly recommend this Seller!

    1974 Allen & Unwin LOTR boxed/sleeved set is as pictured & described. Hard to get this set w/an intacte box! The set (along with another order) arrived quickly & safely into my greedy handses! The trilogy set was wrapped in cardboard, almost an Origami type deal that did a great job protecting the book(s) inside! Fort Knox in an Origami Box! Always a great value from Awesomebooksusa! Descriptions always accurate & always well packaged. Thank you! Happy w/purchase! !!Seller Highly Recommended!!!
