Synopsis
This book extensively examines the history of the legal and religious view of marriage in Canada. The author specifically analyzes the conflicting views of religious authorities and common law regarding the validity of marriage within various Christian denominations and faiths from the early 17th to the mid-19th century. Drawing heavily on theology, canon law, and common law, the author contrasts the authority of secular courts with that of religious authorities, scrutinizing the arguments and criticisms put forward by both sides. The book provides foundational documentation of how the debate over the authority of the state and the church in marriage, primarily in cases involving the right to dissolve a marriage, were addressed. Written with scholarly rigor, this book will be of interest to students, researchers, and legal professionals in civil and ecclesiastical law and religious studies.
