The Hindu And Roman Law Of Adoption

By David Mason Gardner

Book Overview

The Hindu And Roman Law Of Adoption is a book written by David Mason Gardner and published in 1881. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the laws of adoption in both Hindu and Roman cultures. Gardner explores the historical and cultural context of adoption in both societies, as well as the legal framework that governed the practice. He examines the various types of adoption, including the adoption of children and adults, and the rights and responsibilities of adoptive parents and adopted individuals. The book also delves into the religious and social significance of adoption in Hindu and Roman cultures, and the ways in which adoption was used to address issues of inheritance, succession, and family continuity. Gardner's work is a valuable resource for scholars of law, history, and anthropology, as well as anyone interested in the cultural and social history of adoption.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
