Medieval Marriage: Symbolism and Society
D'avray, David (Professor of History, University College London, Professor of History, University College London)
Medieval Marriage shows how marriage symbolism emerged from the world of texts to become a social force affecting ordinary people. Ideas of St Augustine finally became a social system of monogamous indissoluble marriage. This book builds on d'Avray's Medieval Marriage Sermons and works from a wide range of manuscript sources of different genres.
