Rövid leírás:

The book explores women's history from classical antiquity to the early middle ages in the west. Arjava argues that from the viewpoint of most women, late antiquity was not a period of radical change - and that the influence of Christianity on the social position of women has often been exaggerated.

Hosszú leírás:

This is the first comprehensive account of women's legal and social position in the west from classical antiquity right through to the early middle ages. The main focus of the book is on the late antique period, with constant reference to classical Roman law and the lives of women in the early empire. The book goes on to follow women's history up to the seventh century, thus bridging the notorious gap of the "dark ages". Major themes include daughters' succession rights; the independence of married women; sexual relations outside marriage; divorce; remarriage; and the general legal capacity of women. Dr Arjava argues that from the viewpoint of most women, late antiquity was not a period of radical change. In particular, the influence of Christianity has often been considerably exaggerated. It was only after the fall of the western empire that a new legal system and a new social world emerged.

a refreshingly cool and clear-eyed take on the topic such as this book presents will always be a most welcome addition to a fast-growing field. This is an interesting and painstakingly thorough study of legal attitudes to women (and female experiences of the law) which quite deliberately takes a broad-brush view of 'late antiquity in its widest possible sense' ... a most informative and fascinating book ... written with exemplary clarity, and considerably easier to read and follow than many on its subject ... this is still a most helpful and approachable treatment of the issue.
