De Perpetua Feminarum Tutela

By Everhard Otto

"De Perpetua Feminarum Tutela" explores the historical and legal concept of perpetual guardianship of women, primarily within the context of Roman law and its subsequent influence on European legal traditions. Authored by Everhard Otto and Christian Harmes, this work delves into the intricacies of how legal systems historically treated and protected women, often positioning them under the perpetual care or guardianship of male relatives. This detailed examination sheds light on the socio-legal frameworks that shaped women's rights and status across centuries.

The book offers valuable insights into the evolution of legal thought regarding gender and explores the justifications and implications of such protective measures. Scholars and students interested in legal history, women's studies, and the history of European law will find this a crucial resource for understanding the historical underpinnings of modern legal concepts related to gender equality.
