The sixteen studies in this book contain the fruits of a forty-year-long career of archival research and interpretation of documents on property, marriage, family, sexuality, and law in medieval Europe. Marked by an early orientation and developing focus on the status of women in the Middle Ages, the work of Michael Sheehan displays a unique tapestry of the social and legal realities of medieval marriages and family life. The unique feature of Michael Sheehan's work was his juxtaposition of evidence about medieval life, drawn from records of church courts, with the statements of canon and civil law of medieval Europe. With this methodology and insightful interpretation, Michael Sheehan was able to throw light on the way marriage and family life both influenced and was influenced by evolving definitions of law [publisher's description]
