Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricacies of family structures and social dynamics in ancient societies, offering a comparative analysis of three distinct cultures: Chinese, Jewish, and Roman. The author meticulously examines the legal frameworks, customs, and belief systems that shaped family life in these civilizations, providing a rich tapestry of historical insights. The exploration spans various epochs, tracing the evolution of family structures from the early Roman kingdom to the classical period of the Roman Empire and contrasting them with the enduring traditions of Chinese society and the unique regulations of the Jewish people under the Mosaic Law. Themes of marriage, inheritance, parental authority, and the role of women are dissected, revealing both common threads and striking divergences among these cultures. The author's keen observations shed light on the complex interplay between social norms, religious beliefs, and economic realities that influenced the formation and evolution of families throughout history. By illuminating the diverse forms and functions of families in the ancient world, this book offers a profound understanding of the fundamental building blocks of human society and their lasting impact on our modern world.

First edition of the first work published under the author's own name. Devas also wrote the Manual of Political Economy for the Stonyhurst Philosophical Series in 1892, which had enduring success as a textbook used by schools and seminaries. Before attending Oxford, he had converted to Catholicism, which remained a constant theme of his writings. Henry de Trafford (1877-1915) was educated at Balliol, like Devas, after attending the Jesuit boarding school Stonyhurst. He became a captain in the 2nd Battalion of the South Staffordshire Regiment, and died in France on 25 September 1915. The War Diary records that, on the day of his death, the company "came on splendidly, ably led by Capt. de Trafford, who behaved with the greatest coolness and daring". "Captain Henry Joseph de Trafford - 2nd Battalion, The South Staffordshire Regiment", Our War. Octavo (215 x 135 mm). With half-title.
