Unquiet Lives: Marriage and Marriage Breakdown in England, 1660–1800 - Cambridge Studies in Early Modern British History
Bailey, Joanne (Merton College, Oxford)
This 2003 study challenges traditional views of married life in eighteenth-century England. It presents a new picture of power in marriage and the household, and shows also that ideas about adultery and domestic violence evolved during this period, influenced by profound shifts in cultural attitudes about sexuality and violence.
