The History of the Family, Paperback / softback Book

The History of the Family Paperback / softback

Part of the New Perspectives on the Past series

Paperback / softback

Description

The History of the Family concerns the changing interactions between family and social, political and religious structures over the last thousand years of European history.

The family is usually described in terms of patterns of kinship, inheritance, and relations between sexes and generations.

The author examines the contemporary use of these terms and their evolution from nineteenth-century anthropology and social thought.

He then considers how these concepts apply to and reveal the nature of European and other societies.
