Excerpt from Primitive Marriage: An Inquiry Into the Origin of the Form of Capture in Marriage Ceremonies
In the course of some inquiries which I had been making into the early history, of civil society, the meaning and origin of the Form of Capture in Marriage Ceremonies fell to be investigated. The subject being in itself curious, as well as obscure, and one which has never hitherto, so far as I am aware, been handled, I venture to lay the result of my investigation before the public, hoping that it may to some extent interest by its novelty. To the philosophic reader, I humbly submit my little book as an exercise in scientific history.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the origin of the curious and widespread practice of symbolic 'capture' in marriage ceremonies. The author traces the origins of this tradition to primitive societies where capturing women from other tribes was common due to the prohibition against marrying within one's tribe. Over time, this practice evolved into a symbolic ritual in cultures that had become more peaceful, serving as a reminder of a bygone era. The book draws on a wide range of anthropological and historical sources to support its arguments, providing valuable insights into the evolution of marriage customs and the complex relationship between kinship, marriage, and social structure. By exploring the historical roots of this peculiar symbol, this book sheds light on the intricate ways in which human societies have developed.
