Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the lesser-known world of 18th-century Italian legal and religious doctrine governing charitable donations for marriage dowries, dowries for monastic institutions, and other pious causes. While the book examines the legal documents surrounding these charitable donations, it primarily focuses on the conflict between the legitimate desire to assist the needy and prevent fraud and the ways these well-intentioned donations occasionally supported unintended and secretive behavior. Although written from a legal perspective, the book is accessible to both academic and lay readers alike and includes many specific historical examples to illustrate the application of these complex and evolving legal and religious concepts. The author presents the subject matter with a rich and engaging contextual background and an even-handed approach that neither glorifies nor condemns the motives and actions of the donors, administrators, and recipients involved. Given the growing interest in the history of women and women's rights, this deeply researched book offers valuable insight into the social history of 18th-century Italy.
