Marriage, Its History And Ceremonies

"Marriage, Its History And Ceremonies" by Lorenzo Niles Fowler explores the historical and social dimensions of marriage, offering a fascinating glimpse into the customs and traditions surrounding this fundamental institution. With the subtitle "With A Phrenological And Physiological Exposition Of The Functions And Qualifications For Happy Marriages," the book delves into now-discredited but then-popular theories of phrenology to offer insights into compatibility and marital success.

This work provides a unique perspective on Victorian-era attitudes toward marriage, examining its significance in society and the perceived roles of men and women. Fowler's examination extends beyond mere historical recounting, venturing into contemporary understandings of physiology and social dynamics. "Marriage, Its History And Ceremonies" serves as both a historical document and a reflection on evolving cultural norms surrounding marriage, making it a valuable resource for those interested in social history and the changing landscape of human relationships.
