[Footnote 203: As by the ordinance of Zurich, 1529: _ibid._, I,
22; that of Basel, 1529: _ibid._, 126. _Cf._ GOESCHEN, _Doctrina
de mat._, 63 n. 218, 29 n. 105.]
[Footnote 204: BIDEMBACH, _De causis mat._ (Frankfort, 1608),
81-93; and MENTZER, _De conjugio_ (Wittebergae, 1612), 190
ff., allow as causes only adultery and desertion. Other
representatives of the conservative tendency in the seventeenth
century, as enumerated by RICHTER, _Beiträge_, 58 ff., are the
theologians Gerhard, Havemann, Calovius, and Hollaz, and the
jurists Cypräus, Carpzov, Nicolai, Brunnemann, and Schilter;
while the more liberal direction is taken by the theologians
Brochmand, Hülsemann, Calixtus (J. U.), Dannhauer, and Quenstedt,
and the jurists Henning Arnisaeus, Forster, Kitzel, Pufendorf,
Samuel Stryk, and Bruckner.]
[Footnote 205: For the ordinance of 1553, drafted by Brenz, see
RICHTER, _Kirchenordnungen_, II, 130. By this act full divorce
is allowed only for adultery and desertion, including refusal of
marital duty: and separation _a thoro et mensa_ is not permitted
even for _saevitia_. _Cf._ RICHTER, _Beiträge_, 57.]
