摘要

摘要本文对不幸福的妻子提交的兰开夏郡议会请愿书进行了分析，发现了1660年至1700年间女性与丈夫非法分居的证据。当非正式分居时，女性可以求助于JPs来正式确定她们的婚姻状况。请愿证据还表明，遗弃的概念应该重新定义，因为许多配偶并没有完全分居。这些请愿书表明，如果维持和平，当局可以批准非正式分居。总的来说，这篇文章研究了在法律地位不稳定时分居的妻子，并说明了新的来源如何有助于探索现代早期英国的婚姻史。。

‘As Man and Wyfe Ought to Doe’: Reconsidering Marital Separation in Early Modern England

ABSTRACT This analysis of petitions from the Lancashire Quarter Sessions submitted by unhappy wives uncovers evidence of women who separated from their husbands illegally between 1660 and 1700. When informally separated, women could turn to JPs to formalise their marital situation. Petitionary evidence also shows that the concept of desertion should be redefined, as many spouses did not completely separate. These petitions demonstrate that authorities could sanction informal separation if peace was maintained. Overall, this article studies separated wives when their legal position was precarious, and illustrates how new sources can help explore the history of marriage in early modern England..
