Broken Engagements: The Action for Breach of Promise of Marriage and the Feminine Ideal, 1800-1940 - Oxford Studies in Modern Legal History
Lettmaier, Saskia (Research Fellow at the University of Regensburg and S.J.D. Candidate at Harvard Law School)
This book explores ideals of femininity during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries by charting responses to broken engagements. Interweaving a history of the legal remedies available for a broken promise of marriage with literary accounts from Dickens to Wodehouse, the book offers a major insight into modern attitudes to female identity.
