The development of a liberal sentiment in contemporary literature may be traced in _A Treatise Concerning Adultery and Divorce_ (London, 1700); _Two Cases: The First of Adultery and Divorce_ (London, 1702); the anonymous _Essay upon Divorcement_ (London, 1715), replying to Milton; Salmon, _A Critical Essay Concerning Marriage_ (London, 1824), accepting Milton's views; _Cri d'une honnête femme qui réclame le divorce_ (London, 1770); _Observations on the Marriage Laws particularly in reference to the Case of Desertion_ (London, 1815); and _Plea for an Alteration of the Divorce Laws_ (London, 1831). With these writers may be compared Ireland, _Nuptiae sacrae_ (London, 1801, 1821, 1830), opposing Bishop Horsley's argument that in case of divorce the Scriptures directly prohibit the marriage of the adulterer with the adulteress; Tebbs, _Essay on the Scripture Doctrines of Adultery and Divorce_ (London, 1822), too harshly accused of plagiarism by the author of the preceding book; Keble, _Sequel of the Argument against immediately repealing the Laws which treat the Nuptial Bond as indissoluble_ (Oxford, 1857), opposing the proposed divorce law; and Browne, _The Marriage of Divorced Persons in Church_ (London and New York, 1896), taking a reactionary position. Important for the chapter are Glasson, _Histoire du droit et des institutions ... de l'Angleterre_ (Paris, 1882-83); Cleveland, _Woman under the English Law_ (London, 1896); Barclay, _La femme anglaise_ (Paris, 1896); Lehr, _Le mariage, le divorce, et la séparation_ (Paris, 1899); Lecky, _Democracy and Liberty_ (New York, 1896); Neubauer, "Ehescheidung im Auslande," in _ZVR._, VII (Stuttgart, 1887); Swinderen, "Ueber das Gütterrecht der Ehefrau in England," _ibid._, V (Stuttgart, 1884); Hirschfeld, "The Law of Divorce in England and in Germany," in _Law Quarterly Review_, XIII, October (London, 1897); Montmorency, "The Changing Status of a Married Woman," _ibid._, April (London, 1897); and the able article "Divorce," in _Law Review_ (English), I (London, 1845). The absurd conflicts of English and Scottish law, as illustrated especially by Lolley's case, are discussed in Brougham's "Discourse on the Law of Marriage, Divorce, and Legitimacy" (1835) and his "Speech on the Scotch Marriage and Divorce Bills" (1835), both in _Speeches_, III (London, 1838); Fraser, _Conflict of the Laws in Case of Divorce_ (Edinburgh, 1860); and Fergusson, _Reports of Some Decisions_ (Edinburgh, 1817); while the proceedings in divorce under the old law are treated by Poynter, _Doctrine and Practice of the Ecclesiastical Courts in Doctors Commons_ (London, 1822). Besides the technical treatises of Bishop, Geary, Ernst, and Hammick may be consulted Spence, _Equitable Jurisdiction_
