Overview

""Marriage Past Present and Future"" is an extensive socio-historical examination of the institution of marriage, exploring its evolution from early human history into the modern era. Written by Ralph De Pomerai, this work provides a detailed analysis of how matrimonial customs and domestic structures have adapted to the changing needs of society. The text investigates the biological, psychological, and social foundations of pair-bonding, looking at how various cultures and legal systems have shaped the concept of the family unit. De Pomerai addresses the specific challenges facing unions in the early 20th century, offering a critical look at divorce, sexual ethics, and the evolving social status of women. By synthesizing historical data with the sociological insights of his time, the author attempts to predict the future trajectory of marriage in an increasingly secular and industrialized world. This study serves as an essential resource for those interested in the social history of the family and the intellectual climate of the interwar period. ""Marriage Past Present and Future"" remains a significant contribution to social science, capturing a pivotal moment in the re-evaluation of one of humanity's most fundamental institutions.
