Petrenko, D. S. Some Aspects of Establishment and Legal Confirmation
of the Institution of Marriage in Ancient Rome
Abstract:
The subject of the research is the process of formation of the institution of marriage in Ancient Rome. The author
of the article carries out the analysis of definitive aspects of marriage in Roman social and legal life and studies particular
factors and conditions of marital cohabitation. The author of the article also studies historical and legal aspects
of the relation between the institution of iustum matrimonium (marriage in law) and manus in the Roman law, evolution
of the role of woman in the system of marital relations, the significance of the institution of dowry (dos) for development
of the system of marriage and family relations in ancient Rome and the development of procedures of formalization of legal
marriage in ancient Rome. In his research the author uses the dialectic-materialistic philosophical method, general
scientific methods (system, deductive and inductive analysis and synthesis, comparative and historical analysis). The author
also uses special law methods (formal logical (dogmatic), comparative and historical law methods). Scientific novelty
is the proof of the difference between legal constructions of manus and marriage based on new facts and data. Manus
and marriage were two different phenomena of the Roman law. They appeared at different times and were aimed at
solution of different social tasks. In this regard, the author of the article proves the thesis about manus being a complicated
social construct of unlimited domination of a man over a woman for the purpose of economic benefits and exploitation
of woman’s physical and childbearing features but not a special form of cohabitation of man and woman and historical
prerequisite of a legal marriage.
Keywords:
Roman marriage, confarreatio, dowry, iustum matrimonium, manus, cum manu, sine manu, conventio in manum, usus.
