Modern Customs and Ancient Laws of Russia (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the evolution of Russian law and traditions by examining still-living customs of the Russian people, revealing a fascinating connection to ancient laws. The author argues a matriarchal state existed in early Russian history, supported by evidence from the country's oldest chronicles, epic poems, and wedding rituals. The book explores various aspects of family dynamics in Russia, including the significance of agnatism, the role of ancestor worship, and the patriarchal authority of the father within the household community. By drawing parallels between these customs and practices observed in other cultures around the world, the book sheds light on the broader history of family structures and their evolution over time. Ultimately, the author demonstrates how understanding the relationship between ancient laws and present customs provides valuable insights into the development of Russian society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330311936_0
