HISTORY OF SEPARATION AND DIVORCE UNDER ENGLISH AND ECCLESIASTICAL
LAW
[BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE XI.--For divorce among the Athenians
Meier and Schömann's _Der attische Process_ (Berlin, 1883-87)
is important. Assistance has also been given by Hruza,
_Ehebegründung nach att. Rechte_ (Leipzig, 1892); _idem_,
_Polygamie und Pellikat_ (Leipzig, 1894); and Müller and
Bauer, "Die griech. Privat- und Kriegsalterthümer" (1893), in
Müller's _Handbuch_. The Hebrew law on the subject is well
treated by Mielziner, _The Jewish Law of Marriage and Divorce_
(Cincinnati, 1884); and especially by Amram, in his excellent
_Jewish Law of Divorce_ (Philadelphia, 1896). In his "Divorce
on Condition," in the _Green Bag_, III, August, 1891, the
last-named writer has described a curious device for escaping
marriage with a brother-in-law and employed also in cases of
long absence. Besides the works of Stubbe, Duschak, Döllinger,
and Lichtschein, elsewhere noticed, see Selden, _Uxor ebraica_
(Frankfort, 1673), or the same in his _Opera_, II (London,
1726); Fraenkel, _Grundlinien des mosaisch-talmud. Eherechts_
(Breslau, 1860); Saalschuetz, _Das mosaische Recht_ (2d ed.,
Berlin, 1853); and Meyer, _Die Rechte der Israeliten, Athener,
und Römer_ (Leipzig, 1862-66).
