‘Excellent collection… Highly recommended.’ - M.E. Wiesner-Hanks (Choice Magazine vol 54:07:2017) "The diversity of the studies is one of the great strengths of the book. The mosaic-like portrayal of marriage and the variety of methods used by writers from eight different historiographical cultures and ten different schools offer inspiration for future research." - Dalma Bódai, Eötvös Loránd University (The Sixteenth Century Journal, Vol xlix, no 2, Summer 2018) "The single chapters in Marriage in Europe draw on a wide range of material and offer deep analysis of sources. The authors carefully balance prescriptive sources with documents of practice that shed light on the lived experience of pre-modern marriage…Marriage in Europe unequivocally establishes that marriage has a history and anyone interested in this history should refer first to this volume." - Liise Lehtsalu, University of East Anglia (European History Quarterly, Vol. 48 no 4, 2018) "Collectively, the articles in this volume cover immense ground geographically, temporally, ideologically, and religiously. There is, however, a firm foundation, a consistency of approach, and thematic guidelines that provide a clear articulation of marriage during this period of tumultuous change." - Jacqueline Murray, University of Guelph (University of Toronto Quarterly, vol 87 3, Summer '18) "Marriage in Europe is an important book about marriage as a ‘many-sided phenomenon’. Its wide geographic scope, broad chronological investigation, and detailed examination of marriage illuminate the manifold complex rhythms that accompanied the institutionalization of marriage and its social practices." - Giovanna Benadusi, University of South Florida (Renaissance Quarterly, vol 72 no 2) "This volume offers a stimulating overview of marriage in Europe from the late Middle Ages to the nineteenth century. This book is certainly very rich and useful not only to scholars, thanks to its comparative approach, but also to students, thanks to the clarity of its writing, the fascinating individual cases, and its broad perspective." - Raffaella Sarti, University of Urbino (Early Modern Women)
