- Description
- Through an analysis of the marriage patterns of thousands of aristocratic women as well as an examination of diaries, letters, and memoirs, the author demonstrates that the sense of rank identity as manifested in these women's marriages remained remarkably stable for centuries, until it was finally shattered by the First World War.

- Description
- This volume explores the meaning and importance of marriage in Northern Europe, looking at differences and similarities within and between Scandinavia and the british Isles. The point of departure is the concept of 'marital economy'. It is used to denote the economic partnership of husband and wife, which was the basis of all economic activities in the medieval and early modern period. The book employs a life-course approach, discussing in 13 different empirical studies (1) creating the partnership, (2) managing the partnership, and (3) dissolving the partnership. The studies discuss courtship, servants' work, elite strategies, retirement, inheritance, wills, marital disputes, decision-making, divorce, separation, and various forms of property arrangements. The introduction emphasises the martial economy as a key to understanding pre-modern economic life, and the conclusion discusses the reasons why this key has been lost to modern conceptions of economy.

- Description
- At the center of the transformation was a shift from a marital property regime based on custom to one based on contract. Howell asks why the law changed as it did and assesses the law's effects on both social and gender meanings.
