Conjugal ritesmarriage and marriage-like relationships before the law /[electronic resource] :Heather Brook. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2007. - viii, 257 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [209]-233) and index.

Introduction : proposals and propositions -- Theorizing conjugality -- Making marriage : validity and nullity -- Union : adultery and othersexual performatives -- Marriage "beyond the pale" : "mixed" marriage," miscegenation, and assimilation -- S/he done me wrong : adversarial versus "no-fault" divorce -- The "limping" marriage : regulating cohabitation -- Queer propositions : sex and sexualities -- Conclusion : sex, marriage, and conjugality.

This book explores the regulation of intimate relationships today. Its raw materials are fascinating and sometimes salacious. Addressing questions ranging from whether a virgin can be a party to adultery, to whether a man can be a wife, each chapter deals with a theme of conjugality. Using historical and contemporary legal-political sources, the author unites past and present, public and private, to investigate the changing meanings and effects of conjugality, and challenge the way we think about sex, gender and relationships.
