摘要
14-16世纪是英国的社会转型期。在伦敦,工商业的繁荣使其居于时代的前沿,自治城市地位又使之拥有自己的法律与习俗,其中有许多有利于妻子财产继承的规定,为寡妻继承大量亡夫遗产提供了一定的保障。同时期的中国也曾有过商品经济的繁荣,但妻子在法律上始终没有独立的财产继承权,虽然民间习俗允许寡妻继管家产,但也不似伦敦的习俗那般宽容。两相比较,不仅可见中国和伦敦社会对待寡妻的不同态度,亦可体现出她们在生存与发展道路上所处的不同位置。
It was the social transition of Englandduring the period from fourteenth century to sixteenth century,and London has been at the forefront of the time for its prosperity of handicraft industry and commerce.London also enjoyed its own laws and customs because of its autonomous city status.Among these laws and customs,there were many provisions conducive to the property inheritance of wives of London.This was a pledge for wives of London to inherited a large amount of property from their husbands.On the other hand,wives of China of this period of time had never enjoyed independent rights of property inheritance,even though China had also gone through the prosperity of commodity economy.Customs of nongovernmental allowed wives to keep property of their husbands,but these customs were not as tolerant as customs of London.From the comparison between China and London,we can see not only the different attitudes toward wives in different society,but also their different positionson their own survival and developing road.
