Description

Explore how the law controlled sexual behavior in Tudor England with this major study from Cambridge University Press. This book investigates the differences between secular and religious practices during the period of 1470-1600. Contrary to many historical assumptions, this research reveals that both ecclesiastical and secular courts, particularly in urban areas, were highly active in regulating sex before the Reformation. The study examines how these institutions enforced clerical celibacy, worked to combat prostitution, and restrained the pre-marital and extramarital sexual activities of laypeople. It also tracks how the religious and institutional changes occurring between 1530 and 1560 impacted these social regulations.
