AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful set of three bound volumes of this work by M. Le Ridant, which constitutes a systematic legal compilation of the legislative and regulatory texts governing marriage in the Kingdom of France under the Ancien Régime.
This collection gathers royal edicts, ecclesiastical ordinances, declarations of the King's Council, and judgments of the Parliament related to the validity conditions of marriage, the formalities of publishing bans, the required consents, legal impediments (kinship, age, status), clandestine marriages, the rights of spouses, and the civil and patrimonial effects of the union.
This code, both a reference tool and a mirror of matrimonial norms of the Ancien Régime, testifies to the legal complexity of the marital bond before the revolutionary reforms.
M. Le Ridant - Marriage Code or Collection of Edicts, Ordinances & Declarations on Marriage - 1766 - Herissant fils

Good condition of the binding, book in its original full brown leather from the period, signs of use, missing upper cap, wear on the edges and corners, red edges, decorated spine, gilded titling on a morocco piece, cold stamped borders framing the covers.
Good interior condition, some foxing, pretty headbands, tailpieces, and marbled endpapers.
