Focusing on the Church's own legal system of canon law, James A. Brundage offers a comprehensive history of legal doctrines-covering the millennium from A.D. 500 to 1500-concerning a wide variety of sexual behavior, including marital sex, adultery, homosexuality, concubinage, prostitution, masturbation, and incest. His survey makes strikingly clear how the system of sexual control in a world we have half-forgotten has shaped the world in which we live today. The regulation of marriage and divorce as we know it today, together with the outlawing of bigamy and polygamy and the imposition of criminal sanctions on such activities as sodomy, fellatio, cunnilingus, and bestiality, are all based in large measure upon ideas and beliefs about sexual morality that became law in Christian Europe in the Middle Ages. "Brundage's book is consistently learned, enormously useful, and frequently entertaining. It is the best we have on the relationships between theological norms, legal principles, and sexual practice."-Peter Iver Kaufman, Church History 410 0$aACLS Humanities E-Book. 606 $aSex and law$zEurope$xHistory 606 $aSex crimes$zEurope$xHistory 606 $aSex$xReligious aspects$xChristianity$xHistory 606 $aLaw, Medieval$xHistory 615 0$aSex and law$xHistory. 615 0$aSex crimes$xHistory. 615 0$aSex$xReligious aspects$xChristianity$xHistory. 615 0$aLaw, Medieval$xHistory. 676 $a344.4/054 700 $aBrundage$b James A$0212470 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808843803321 996 $aLaw, sex, and Christian society in Medieval Europe$91380754 997 $aUNINA
