En savoir plus sur le livre

The book explores the stark legal distinctions between men and women in cases of spousal murder, highlighting the severe consequences for women, such as being charged with petty treason and facing execution by burning. This reflects a broader societal belief in women's subjugation to their husbands, where loyalty and obedience were expected. The narrative delves into themes of gender inequality, the historical context of marital law, and the implications of these legal disparities on women's rights and societal roles.
