About this title

Synopsis

This book explores the varied conceptions of capacity for self-governance, particularly within the context of marriage, as developed in early modern England. The author considers the religious, social, and legal rationales that shaped marital law and policy during this period. The author situates these ideas in relation to the rise of liberalism and Enlightenment thought, revealing complex and often contradictory beliefs about the nature of freedom and personal autonomy within marriage. This book will be of interest to scholars of early modern history, law, and gender studies.
