The present dissertation is a historical and critical research into the doctrine of theologians and canon lawyers on the much-debated question of the legal origin of nullity in a coerced marriage. Authors included in the research start with Thomas Sanchez (1550-1610) and continue onto present day authors. Attention is given also to pertinent highlights of the Church's jurisprudential practice, both recent and past, regarding the nullity of a coerced marriage. In the study particular focus is devoted to the question of indirect fear, which fear gained full juridical relevance in the 1983 Code of Canon Law. [publisher's description]
