Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The structures of courtship and the role of family, kin and community. The language of tokens and the making of marriage; "Movers", "sutors", "speakers", and "brokers" of marriage - the role of the go-betweens as a means of courtship; Courtship horizons in the sixteenth century - distance and place as factors in marriage formation; The timing of marriage - constraints and expectations; Material girls? - dowries and property in courtship.
