Limited gentle wear; clean with unmarked text, no inscriptions, no stamps, firm binding. Dust jacket shows a bit of creasing to the upper edges. -- The book offers a detailed lega…l and social analysis of sexual defamation in early 19th-century England by examining the functioning of the ecclesiastical courts between 1815-1855. It focuses on the specialized jurisdiction over spoken accusations of sexual misconduct - specifically slander imputing adultery or fornication. The work is based on extensive archival research, drawing primarily on ecclesiastical court records across England, Wales and the Isle of Man, including act books, cause papers and rare correspondence from legal professionals such as proctor William Askwith. Part I sets the legal groundwork by distinguishing between the common law and ecclesiastical law approaches to slander. The ecclesiastical jurisdiction retained authority over oral sexual slander without requiring proof of actual damages, whereas common law generally required demonstrable loss to sustain a claim. The book details how ecclesiastical procedures were formally initiated and controlled by plaintiffs, with no public prosecutor involved, and typically concluded in orders for public penance rather than monetary damages. It also discusses the legal ambiguity surrounding defenses such as truth and the inconsistencies in judicial interpretations across dioceses, underlining the fragmented nature of ecclesiastical legal administration. Part II explores the procedural mechanics and institutional context of ecclesiastical litigation. Chapters cover the court structure, personnel, patterns of litigation, types of admissible evidence, cost structures and the use of penance as a legal remedy. Litigation was shaped by a complex blend of local practices, varying record-keeping standards and discretionary judicial powers. Costs were often unpredictable and could be used to discourage plaintiffs or penalize successful defendants. Penance, usually performed in church, served as both a symbolic reparation and a public reaffirmation of community norms, though it was increasingly regarded as outdated. Part III focuses on the nature and diversity of the cases themselves, categorizing them by party composition, the specific allegations and the outcomes. It emphasizes that while most suits were initiated by women (about 90 percent of cases), the motivations and contexts varied. Defamation often emerged from intra-family disputes, neighborhood conflicts or deteriorating romantic engagements. Plaintiffs typically belonged to lower or lower-middle social strata and many suits were initiated in the hope of salvaging reputation in small communities where social surveillance was intense. The chapter on motives examines how cases were driven by concerns about marriage prospects, social standing and community participation. It also highlights how slander could be used strategically during property disputes, inheritance conflicts or in retaliation. Chapter 11 examines the effects of the litigation process, both in legal and social terms, and explores how ecclesiastical rulings shaped reputational dynamics within communities. The book underscores the significance of ecclesiastical slander litigation as a venue for women's legal agency in a period otherwise marked by legal disenfranchisement. The disappearance of this jurisdiction in 1855 left a legal vacuum until the passage of the Slander of Women Act in 1891. The volume integrates legal history with insights from gender studies and the history of sexuality. It leverages uncatalogued and underused sources to build a picture of how slander law functioned in practice and how it intersected with everyday social life. It makes a broader contribution to understanding legal pluralism in 19th-century Britain while offering a framework for interpreting informal social control mechanisms in pre-modern legal cultures.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Anglo-American private law (the law governing mutual rights and obligations of individuals) has been a far more complex phenomenon than is usually recognized. Attempts to reduce it to a single explanatory principle, or to a precisely classified or…categorized map, scheme, or diagram, are likely to distort the past by omitting or marginalizing material inconsistent with proposed principles or schemes. Many legal issues cannot be allocated exclusively to one category. Often several concepts have worked concurrently and cumulatively, so that competing explanations and categories are not so much alternatives, of which only one can be correct, as different dimensions of a complex phenomenon, of which several may be simultaneously valid and necessary. This study will be of importance to those interested in property, tort, contract, unjust enrichment, legal reasoning, legal method, the history of the common law, and the relation between legal theory and legal history.
