2001rif. 2314127New York: HarperCollins 2001. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 6x1x9. First edition. A near fine copy in a near fine jacket. 2001 Hard Cover. xix 441 pp. "A woman coming of age today has good reason to wonder what marriage will mean to her. Certainly it will no longer imply that her husband will provide for her as an ability to earn a living is commonly expected of both men and women. Also marriage will no longer offer a woman a unique gateway into sexual and domestic pleasures since premarital cohabitation has long ago ceased to be a taboo. Marriage will not be a woman's indispensable passage to motherhood -- up to 40 percent of American first babies are being born out of wedlock. And since one in two marriages will end in divorce it will no longer guarantee a woman permanent protection in a world that has traditionally been unkind to unmarried women. In this atmosphere of high ambiguity it is instructive to look to the past to see what it meant to be a wife from the earliest days of civilization to the present and to explore how the contemporary wife came into being. From the perspective of modern marriage the distinguished cultural historian Marilyn Yalom charts the evolution of marriage in the judeo christian world through the centuries and shows how radical that collective change has been. For example how did marriage considered a religious duty in medieval Europe become a venue for personal fulfillment in contemporary America' How did the notion of romantic love a novelty in the Middle Ages become a prerequisite for marriage today' And if the original purpose of marriage was procreation what exactly is the purpose of marriage for women now' A History of the Wife is a study of laws religious practices social customs economic patterns and political consciousness that have affected generations of wives: in ancient Greece where daughters were given by fathers to husbands to create legitimate offspring; in medieval Europe where marriage was infused with religious meaning; during the Reformation and the Age of Enlightenment when ideals of companionate marriage came to the fore; and in twentieth century America where a new model of spousal relationships emerged. This rich lucid chronicle of the turning points in a History of the Wife includes unforgettable stories about married women who have rebelled against the conventions of their times from Marjorie Kempe to Elizabeth Cady Stanton from Heloise to Margaret Sanger. Drawing extensively from diaries memoirs and letters A History of the Wife also pays tribute to the ordinary wives who over the centuries changed with and against the currents they encountered quietly affecting the legal personal and social meaning of marriage. For any woman who is has been or ever will be married this intellectually vigorous and gripping historical analysis of marriage sheds new light on an institution most people take for granted and that may in fact be experiencing its most convulsive upheaval since the Reformation.
