Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book studies the historical and cultural development of sexual morality, particularly the evolution of the laws surrounding marriage. The author argues that the idea of promiscuity being a necessary and proper starting point in human social progress is false, and that instead sexual conduct has been subject to important restraints for millennia. Moreover, while previous authors like Bachofen, Morgan, and others have argued that mankind has passed through a prolonged stage of promiscuity, the author claims instead that a feeling of impropriety related to sexual alliances between persons near of kin has likely always existed. The author examines supposed evidence of a promiscuous period, such as the sexual habits of primates and the practices of certain indigenous cultures. The book also explores the social and cultural elements, such as kinship and descent, that have shaped the development of marriage laws and customs. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
