Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Brides and Bridals, Vol. 2 of 2 In estimating the effects of written law and custom on female character in olden time, we should never forget those natural forces of woman which mitigated the harshness of the artificial restraints of her condition, and often made her the actual ruler of the man who, by legal rules and social theory, was her despot. Human nature is stronger than the reasoning of pedants and the decrees of judges. In every century of our social annals, from the Heptarchy to the Reformation, the law proved itself the unwise bachelor that Mr. Bumble in these later days declared it to be. It proclaimed the wife to be, in all cases and under all circumstances, her husband´s creature, servant, slave; whilst experience showed that he was often the victim of her caprice and the mere agent of her will.
