Description

This scholarly work traces the development of marriage as a sacrament within Christian theology, examining how the medieval church transformed marriage into one of the seven sacraments and shaped the role of married individuals within religious life. The book explores the ancient roots of sacramental marriage whilst highlighting the theological problems this doctrine created, showing how scholastic theologians engaged with these challenges through rigorous intellectual analysis. By the late Middle Ages, sacramental marriage had become firmly established in Christian thought and practice, though not yet formally declared as dogma. The sixteenth century brought new tensions as Protestant reformers challenged Catholic teaching on marriage, celibacy, and the church's legal jurisdiction over matrimonial matters. This Cambridge University Press publication offers essential insight into how medieval theology fundamentally shaped Western understanding of marriage as a sacred institution.
