Examines the many descriptions of marriage in the 19th-century writer's work and delineates various types, such as the patriarchal paradigm, those in which the wife is dominant, and purely mercenary alliances. Finds that abuse of power by whoever has it inevitable undermines love and respect and leads to the failure of the marriage. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.Book Details
