Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a piercing look at how societies transformed from primitive beginnings to refined urban ones. The author shows how individual virtue, which thrived in primitive times when people lived for their community, was replaced by the desire for material gain as people became wealthier. He takes the reader on a journey through time, beginning with the German tribes and their customs in the days of the Roman Empire. Tracing the evolution of the feudal system, the author shows how changes in property rights affected not only the powerful landowners but the common people, especially women. As feudal systems gave way to modern society, women advanced because their increased property ownership empowered them to participate in the political and economic spheres. This book is recommended to all readers interested in tracing the roots of modern European society, government, and individual liberty.
