Synopsis
As the Roman Empire declined in the West, the Catholic Church and Germanic kingdoms rose, dramatically reshaping law, politics, and culture. This book examines how the family became a central battleground for morality, law, and tradition during this upheaval. It explores the intersections of Roman and Christian legal thought and political power through the lens of familial struggles.
