Description
The History of Human Marriage V2 is a comprehensive study of the institution of marriage throughout human history. Written by Edward Westermarck, a renowned Finnish philosopher and sociologist, this book explores the various forms of marriage that have existed in different cultures and societies, including polygamy, monogamy, and same-sex marriage.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of marriage. These include the origins of marriage, the role of religion in marriage, the economic and social factors that have influenced marriage, and the evolution of marriage laws and customs.Drawing on a wide range of historical and anthropological sources, Westermarck provides a detailed and nuanced analysis of the complex and varied ways in which human beings have formed and sustained intimate relationships over time. He also explores the ways in which marriage has been used as a tool for social control and the ways in which it has been challenged and transformed by changing social norms and values.Overall, The History of Human Marriage V2 is a fascinating and insightful exploration of one of the most fundamental institutions of human society. It will be of interest to anyone seeking to understand the historical and cultural roots of contemporary marriage practices and debates.1922.
