Abstract:
MOTHERS OF ILLEGITIMATE CHILDREN IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY VILNIUS DEANERY: SOCIAL STATUS AND GEOGRAPHICAL ORIGIN This article explores the mothers of illegitimate children in the eighteenth-century Vilnius deanery from a perspective of historical demography. While historians in the Western world have produced many studies focused on the phenomenon of illegitimacy, the Lithuanian scientists have not done much in exploring illegitimacy in early modern Vilnius. This article is one of the first attempts to explore illegitimacy and its patterns of historical demography by paying attention to the women who had children outside the wedlock. The analysis of sociodemographic characteristics of the mothers firstly revealed the mystery of illegitimate maternities: while we do not have any information about at least a quarter of these mothers’ social and geographical origin, this issue reveals the dominant negative attitude towards these women at the time. Collected data from parish books led to the anticipated conclusion that the majority of mothers had lower social status, although some of them were part of the nobility. The analysis of given surnames of these mothers showed that the majority of them were unmarried. This fact suggests that for some mothers their illegitimate pregnancy was the first pregnancy. While the scarcity of sources limits our knowledge about the social circumstances of illegitimate births, the analysis of given surnames of these mothers, combined with other sources, leads to a likely conclusion that illegitimate births could occur as a product of failed promises of marriage, sexual violence or adultery. The analysis of mothers’ geographical background showed that the majority of them belonged to parishes where they chose to baptize their illegitimate children. While there is a possibility that some of these women received help from the fathers or relatives, the author of this article argues that the research findings demonstrate the lack of social and economic support of mothers rather than community acceptance and tolerance towards these women. A minority of the mothers were from distant places and this data allowed the author to form a compelling conclusion that some women, due to the lack of support, were forced to seek better opportunities in other parishes. Keywords: mothers of illegitimate children, illegitimate children, social status, geographical origin, the eighteenth century, Vilnius deanery.

Abstract:
Early academic histories of non-marital motherhood often focused on the minority of mothers who had several illegitimate children. Peter Laslett coined the phrase ‘the bastardy prone sub-society’ to describe them. More recent qualitative research has questioned the gendered perspectives underlying this label, and emphasised the complex, highly personal processes behind illegitimacy. By locating the social experience of illegitimacy, particularly multiple illegitimacy, within a broader genealogical and parochial context, this study tries to set the behaviour of particular individuals within a ‘community’ context in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. It places illegitimacy alongside pre-nuptial pregnancy within the sample parish, but also focuses on the majority of illegitimate births that fell under the administration of the parish and became ‘bastardy’ cases. It examines the parish’s administrative responses, particularly its vigour in identifying and recovering money from putative fathers, and discusses the social circumstances of these fathers and mothers. It then goes on to reconstruct the inter-generational genealogy of a dense family network that linked several mothers and fathers of multiple illegitimate children. It highlights some significant and recurrent disparities of age and status within these family concentrations which lay beyond the limits of the courtship-centred model of illegitimacy.

Abstract:
Unpublished documents by Léon Laurent-Pichat (1823–1886), republican activist and Life Senator, record his experience of being born illegitimate, finding his mother in adulthood, and becoming part of her family. Such accounts are extremely rare. This case study uses those writings to elucidate the emotional impact of illegitimacy on both child and family. It also questions how far the legal and social exclusion of illegitimate children from the conjugal family was reflected in family practice. This case demonstrates that bourgeois families were sometimes less intransigent and more accepting of such children than legal strictures or social prescriptions might suggest.

Abstract:
Parentage is linking something to something else. Linkage is of two types: 1. Longituidinal linkage like donation between fathers and sons. 2. Laternal linkage like a donation as between sisters and aunts. So parentage is an infinitive, meaning relationship, kinship, and interest between two things. In Farsi, it is called lineage and French apply the word "filation" as meaning continuity, chain, generation, seed, successiveness, cohesion and subsequent things, coming after one another. Scholars and lawyers have provided various definitions. So, parentage means the birth of a person from a mother created by way of lawful marriage or by the possession of a woman for a man or by way of uncertainty, i.e. a person with a specific father or that the birth of two peoples out of one origin.

Abstract:
Victorian sensation novels, in addition to their scandalous topics such as fraud, murder, adultery, bigamy, and madness, refer to Victorian laws and their construction by social and cultural standards. As a significant sensation novelist, one of the most important subjects Wilkie Collins calls for attention is illegitimacy, a social, political, and literary topic he recurrently employs in his fiction. In his novels The Woman in White (1860) and No Name (1862), he dwells on this issue, motivating the characters’ crimes and scandalous acts. In both novels, illegitimate characters act illegally to reconstruct their identities by challenging Victorian norms especially about illegitimacy. Concerning his life and his critique of Victorian laws and moral certitudes, this paper explores how Wilkie Collins employs and questions the theme of illegitimacy about crime, sensations, and social and legal problems that influence illegitimate children. After briefly examining illegitimacy and laws about it in Victorian England, it explores how the concept of illegitimacy is shaped and influenced by Victorian conventions and gender ideologies in the two novels.

This article explores a previously uninvestigated topic: the role of godparents for illegitimate children in the 18th century Vilnius deanery. The research is based on analysing baptism records from parishes within the Vilnius deanery during this period. The study delves into the selection of godparents for illegitimate children, investigating such factors as the number of godparents present at the baptism and whether they acted as spiritual guardians for multiple illegitimate children. Additionally, it examines the social status of the godparents, analyzing surnames, social standing, and place of residence to determine possible kinship, social, and territorial relations with the parents. Furthemore, the paper explores whether relationships between godparents and illegitimate children extended beyond the formal baptism ceremony.

Abstract:
This thesis has examined unmarried fathers in two parishes of Umeå in northern Sweden during the period 1897-1937. The main focus is on the consequences that ensued the legislation that formalized men’s obligations towards children born out of wedlock, which was passed on June 14th, 1917. The period chosen for this thesis analysis is twenty years before and after 1917. This enables a comparison between the society of the late 19th century and a society smitten by a modernised social reform in the early 20th century. To investigate the subject matter, records of birth and baptismal have been studied with a primary focus on patterns concerning fathers of illegitimate children. Both parishes presented a considerably small number of unmarried fathers compared to married men, throughout the entire period. The town of Umeå had the largest overall share in comparison with the countryside. It was pre-supposed, based on previous research, that the social class to which most unmarried fathers belonged, were in the lower ranks of society. This turned out to be an accurate assumption based on statistics from both parishes presented in this thesis. The statistics did not present any men from the upper class as fathers of children born out of wed-lock. Monetary as well as societal pressure were identified as possible explanations why some men avoided fathering illegitimate children. All in all, the legislation was interpreted as some-what successful in Umeå; achieving an apparent reduction in total shares of unknown fathers, a rising number of pledged paternities and presenting a few examples of men sentenced to fa-therhood in court. The legislation also provided unmarried women with a voice in legal matters concerning their illegitimate children.

Full text
Abstract:
À la fin du Moyen Âge, les bâtards nobles ont bénéficié d’une situation privilégiée. L’étude de la « maison » ducale de Bourbon (XIVe-milieu du XVIe siècle) montre que cette reconnaissance s’exprime par l’identité, la parenté et le pouvoir conférés aux personnes de naissance illégitime. L’objectif est de mettre en évidence les rouages qui ont favorisé la promotion sociale d’une population née hors mariage. Les enfants naturels bénéficient d’un statut qui leur est propre, s’exprimant à travers des langages identitaires qui les singularisent. Ceux-ci les autorisent également à se revendiquer du lignage paternel qui leur assure un rang social. Les discours produits sur les bâtard.es rejoignent surtout l’attitude de la parenté à leur égard : elle les incorpore tout en les distinguant au sein du lignage. Les enfants nés hors mariage renforcent alors la parenté légitime et concourent à la reproduction sociale de la famille. À travers les fonctions qu’ils exercent, le patrimoine qu’ils possèdent ou les alliances qu’ils contractent, ils soutiennent les ambitions politiques des princes, dans un contexte de restructuration des rapports de force avec la royauté<br>At the end of the Middle Ages, bastard children of nobles benefited from a privileged situation. The study of the House of the Bourbon dukes (14th-mid-16th centuries) shows that such recognition was expressed through identity, kinship and the power conferred upon people of illegitimate birth. The objective is to highlight the system which favored the social promotion of a population born outside of marriage. Natural children benefitted from a unique situation, expressed through specific languages of identity. This allowed then to claim paternal lineage as well, which assured them of a certain social standing. The discourses produced regarding bastards are reflected most notably in the attitude towards them based on their ties of kinship, which includes them as part and parcel of the lineage. Children born outside of marriage thus reinforce legitimate kinship and participate in the social reproduction of the family. Through their professional roles, the patrimony which they possess and/or the alliances which they forge, they support the political ambitions of the princes, in a context of the restructuration of power relations with royalty

Abstract:
Barnamordsplakatet (a Infanticide Proclamation) of 1778 was a circular allowing unmarried mothers to give birth at an undisclosed location without giving up the name of the father. The proclamation was supposed to ease the situation for the unwed mother in Sweden. The aim was to investigate whether women in Assembly of Hällefors, far from government and close to remote forest Finnskogen, was affected by the Infanticide Proclamation, between 1771 and 1830. Case studies has been done on people who had illegitimate children, if they were convicted, what the crime was and what the punishment was. The investigation is made at a local level and compared against national analyzes on the same theme. A lot of illegitimate children were born in Grythyttan nearby and slightly less in Hällefors, compared to other places of Sweden. Mothers and fathers were convicted in the district court for crimes, including, sexual intercourse between unmarried persons. More women than men were convicted. The cases in court with convicted for the second time, was culminating between 1800 and 1810. Infanticide Proclamation is immediately adapted in court. People's behavior changed before the law took effect when the amount of born illegitimate children outnumbered the amount of convicted mothers.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse vise à appréhender la condition juridique des couples non mariés, à travers près de cinq siècles. Le droit canonique du mariage relégua le concubinage à un état permanent de péché, et, au XVIe siècle, le concile de Trente prescrivit des sanctions sévères à l'encontre des concubinaires. Les pères du concile édictèrent des règles encadrant la célébration du mariage. Puis, l'autorité séculière s'arrogea peu à peu la compétence en matière matrimoniale, par les lois et par la jurisprudence. La frontière entre mariage et concubinage était dorénavant strictement établie. Si l'ancien droit ne regarda pas le concubinage comme un délit, il fustigea les bâtards en les soumettant à un statut d'infériorité. Sous la Révolution, la sécularisation du mariage ne remit pas en cause la forme traditionnelle de l'union conjugale, toutefois, les législateurs accordèrent des droits aux enfants naturels reconnus. En 1804, le Code civil ignora absolument le concubinage. Le fondement de la famille était le mariage ; et, les enfants naturels furent, de nouveau, les victimes de la prééminence de l'union légitime. Dés le milieu du XIXe siècle, la rigueur du Code envers la famille naturelle fut atténuée grâce à un courant d'idées progressistes. Puis, au début du XXe siècle, la reconnaissance officielle du concubinage fut opérée par une série de mesures législatives lui conférant des effets juridiques, et la voie vers un pluralisme juridique des modèles familiaux se trouva ouverte.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立中山大學<br>中山學術研究所<br>95<br>Illegitimate child is commonly referred to as “bastard,” which contains the implication of discrimination and original sin from social viewpoint. As far as law is concerned, private law doesn’t provide protection for the rights of illegitimate children, whose mothers are therefore forced to file for compulsory recognition without considering consensus and depreciation to ensure their rights, and this is exactly the canker that “Martial Presumption System,” which is worth further exploration. As for research method, historical method, comparative method, and citation analysis method and so on are adopted herein so as to cover domestic traditional system as well as foreign system. Furthermore, domestic scholars’ articles on relevant issues are herein analyzed to seek protection for children on Constitution. Laws concerning illegitimate children falls into the category of private Law, for the aspects of relatives and inheritance are relate to legislative system and compulsory regulations which are beyond the governing of private autonomy. Additionally, the regulations of citizen’s basic rights are not stipulated in detail and specifically on Constitution and must be supplemented by Civil Law. Nevertheless, in the respect of illegitimate children’ rights, Civil Law obviously fails to reinforce the regulations of basic rights provided on Constitution. Therefore, it’s a necessity to have it discussed at equal level of Constitution. This essay then focus on protection for children on Constitution and therefore adopts human dignity, personality right, family right, equity, property right, and litigation right recorded on Constitution to build the principal structure and study the protection for the rights of “illegitimate” children on Constitution. Classifying children into legitimate children and illegitimate children will not only cause confusions in Civil Law system, but convert law into a means to discriminate illegitimate children and then result in public rights impracticable in law. As a result, amendment drafts are proposed herein, taking the abolishment of martial presumption system as the main idea that enables children whether whose parents got married or not to enjoy equal rights with the assistance of children’s rights protection to enable Taiwan’s parent-child relationship to compete with advanced nations.

碩士<br>國立中山大學<br>中國與亞太區域研究所<br>97<br>Since Convention on the Rights of the Child of the United Nations are released, children''s best interests becomes the highest principle for every state having legal system to deal with children''s affairs. So we can say that the first serious mission of the subject of modern parent and tot''s relation is protecting minor children''s interests, then keeping the marriage and family peace and stable identity relations and etc. is the next. And in order to reach the above-mentioned purpose, the numerous countries have begun to examine their law of the marriage and family, even some advanced countries have abolished the differentiation between legitimate and illegitimate children too, in order to reach the demand for this two equalization. Now people of our country and mainland China ( what follows we call them two sides) contact with each other frequently, and then the extramarital sexual intercourse of people of two sides becomes numerous, and the quantity of the legitimate children also increases year by year. Base this, the announcement of the Equal Principle between legitimate and illegitimate children in mainland China marriage law has a deep meaning, but when we review our country, we find that our law about children''s affairs has no response for the above-mentioned things. Even now our law about children''s affairs still maintain the differentiation of legitimate and illegitimate children and also especially discriminate against the children of the mainland China in "The ordinance of people''s relationship between Taiwan and mainland China ". So this thesis''s aim is checking the legal system related to legitimate and illegitimate children of two sides by the standard namely with the children''s best interests and look over them to find they observe the standard namely with the children''s best interests or not. By the way, this thesis will try to find the reason and the cause that helping legal system about legitimate and illegitimate children stand out ,and try to find the real way to make legitimate children equal with illegitimate children in the modern status which has varied family type and varied pattern of both sexes getting along with each other. To this end, the thesis want to set up a new “legitimate children presumption”system to adapt to the above-mentioned purpose, and doesn''t make children unequal just because their parents aren''t husband and wife , and our law （or mainland China''s law）about children''s affairs will juxtapose advanced countries.

This study adopted a case-study method and by purposive sampling invited an illegitimate child in junior high school to conduct this research. All the data was collected through in-depth interviews, and expressive art activities to understand interviewee’s family self-concept and his attitude towards premarital sex. The conclusions of this study were as follows. 1. The family self-concept of the illegitimate child’s in junior high school: (1) He values his existing family members more for lack of his mother. (2) A good family relationship adapts him to the incomplete family structure. (3) With a good family relationship, his family self-concept develops better than other self-concepts. 2. The attitude towards premarital sex of the illegitimate child in junior high school: (1) He has a more open attitude towards premarital sex under the influence of his parents having children born out of wedlock. (2) He has a more open attitude towards marriage and does not rule out the possibility of having children born out of wedlock. Finally, on the basis of the above conclusions, suggestions are offered to educators and parents with children born out of wedlock. It is hoped to provide school educators, school counselors, and parents with children born out of wedlock with more explicit support when facing the illegitimate children.

Abstract:
The aim of the study was to investigate the diet diversity, food access and coping strategies applied by single mothers with young children in the Northern Okavango region of Botswana. A qualitative and quantitative survey was chosen as the research design for this study. The study site was Gumare village in rural Ngamiland and the sample included only single female headed households. The questionnaires used were contextualized to reflect the culture, food patterns and specific foods commonly consumed in Botswana. Three questionnaires were used: 1. A socio- demographic questionnaire to document household size, age, marital status, income and water sources and the indigenous and wild foods that were gathered 2. The international standardized Household Dietary Diversity Score (HDDS) questionnaire to identify the variety of foods from fourteen food groups consumed by households over the previous 24 hours 3. The international standardized Coping Strategies Index (CSI) to determine the coping strategy behaviours of members of the household when faced with food shortages The socio demographic results of the study showed that female headed households had an average 7.4 members. They were seriously affected by poverty, as 58% of the households had registered under the Botswana Social Welfare programme as destitute. Therefore qualifies to be assisted through provision of food baskets and cash vouchers. The overall results obtained from the household dietary diversity questionnaire showed a diet diversity score of 2.0. This is an extremely low diet diversity value, which indicate a high level of vulnerability to food insecurity and inadequate food access. The foods which were mainly consumed by households were from the cereal food group, reflecting the global situation among the poor who rely on starch- based diets. The intake from dairy products (10%), meats (28%) and Vitamin A rich vegetables (16%) was limited. Given the limited food variety resulting in severe restriction to food access, coping strategies to address food shortages were employed. These included; relying on less preferred and less expensive food (100%), gathering wild food, hunting or harvesting immature crops (68%), limiting portion sizes (96%), reducing the number of meals eaten in the day (76%), depending on government food baskets (58%) and reducing overall food intake when the government food basket was not adequate (50%). It can be concluded that, given the restricted food access and a severely limited diversity in consumed food, extended government welfare assistance is crucial. The findings of this study could be used to guide the Botswana government when formulating new approaches and interventions to address food access and ultimately food security in households in this poverty- stricken area.<br>Agriculture, Animal Health & Human Ecology<br>M.A. (Human Ecology)

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter examines the life chances of middling and elite illegitimate individuals. Using a prosopographical database of 225 children and grandchildren of peers, the chapter quantifies the effect of illegitimacy on life chances by comparing illegitimate children with their legitimate half-siblings or cousins and allowing for differences in gender and birth order. Quantitative analysis of the database is supplemented by qualitative analysis of the letters and diaries of middling and elite families. It argues that illegitimacy had a measurable negative effect on social status: illegitimate individuals married at a later age, married lower down the social scale, and were less likely to achieve markers of power, such as office and landholding. The chapter explores the nuances behind this disadvantage. Illegitimate men fared worse than illegitimate women due to the impact of illegitimacy on markers of genteel masculinity. Their position was markedly worse to that of legitimate younger sons. Mixed-race and white children followed similar trajectories, suggesting that illegitimacy had a greater impact than race on socio-economic status. The chapter indicates that families made specific, pragmatic decisions about the prospects of illegitimate children. Families gave illegitimate children a cheaper, more practical education focused on financial self-sufficiency, whilst encouraging them into occupations and marriages that would keep them within the status and influence of their paternal family. Throughout, the chapter examines individuals’ ability to remain within their father’s social class, measured through their access to opportunities for power and social connections.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter examines the inclusion of illegitimate children in concepts of the household-family, including those headed by grandparents, step-parents, and unrelated foster parents. It argues that illegitimate children were included within concepts of provision and responsibility from a household head towards dependants, and expectations of affective bonds. Growing sympathy towards illegitimate children in eighteenth-century culture provided a potent motive for surrogate parents to care for children as proof of charitable virtue. The exact position of illegitimate children within the household, though, depended on a range of circumstances, including material resources, the presence of competing legitimate children, and a desire for a mutually fulfilling affective bond. Poverty was important—poorer families faced more difficult choices about how resources were distributed—but illegitimacy had some similar effects across the social scale. All illegitimate children had a shared experience of liminality and insecurity, suggesting that the lack of a legal or cultural template for their role in their household had a negative impact on their upbringing.

Abstract:
This chapter studies migration of illegitimate children from Britain to the empire between 1870 and 1930 from two organizations, the London Foundling Hospital and the Church of England's Waifs and Strays Society. Adding the issue of illegitimacy changes the view of child migration in three ways. First, illegitimate children had already moved multiple times before their migration, so this transition might be the end, not the beginning of their travels. Second, many had already lost their families as infants, so had less to lose than other poor children. Indeed, migration might give them back families (especially mothers) they had lost. The shame of illegitimacy, primarily with girls, could be lost. Finally, migration was only one of many factors that harmed these children psychologically. When the children were illegitimate, poverty and family breakdown was a larger problem than leaving the U.K.

Abstract:
Статья посвящена судьбе последнего мятежника королевской крови в Англии герцога Монмута. Особое место в системе функционирования европейских монархий Запада в начале раннего Нового времени занимали незаконнорожденные дети государей. Их статус был высоким в Испании, Франции и Англии. Стюарты второй половины XVII в. отличались большим количеством бастардов. Видное место в системе функционирования Трех Королевств при Карле II занимал его старший бастард Джеймс, герцог Монмут. Царственный отец устроил ему выгодный брак. Назначал на высшие придворные должности. Сделал командующим королевской армии. Монмут командовал экспедиционным корпусом во Фландрии. Громил шотландских мятежников в конце 1670-х гг. Однако герцог посчитал, что имеет право претендовать на престол после смерти своего отца. Карл II не имел официального потомства и наследником был его младший брат католик Яков, герцог Йоркский. Монмут стал выразителем мнений и ширмой для оппозиции Карлу II и Якову II. После смерти своего отца, летом 1685 г., герцог Монмут поднял восстание. Собрал отряд сторонников и высадился на Западе Англии. Его поддержали протестанты, выставившие отряды милиции. В битве при Седжмуре королевская армия разбила повстанцев. Монмут был пленен. Яков II приказал казнить мятежного племянника. Мятеж и казнь герцога стали важным и ярким сюжетом пропаганды, как королевской, так и оппозиционной. В статье разбираются некоторые аспекты этого процесса. The article is devoted to the fate of the last rebel of royal blood in England, the Duke of Monmouth. Illegitimate children of sovereigns occupied a special place in the system of functioning of the European monarchies of the West at the beginning of the Early Modern period. Their status was high in Spain, France and England. The Stuarts of the second half of the XVII century were distinguished by a large number of bastards. A prominent place in the system of functioning of the Three Kingdoms under Charles II was occupied by his eldest bastard James, Duke of Monmouth. The royal father arranged a profitable marriage for him. He was appointed to the highest court positions, was made the commander of the royal army. Monmouth commanded an expeditionary force in Flanders, defeated the Scottish rebels in the late 1670s. However, the duke considered that he had the right to claim the throne after the death of his father. Charles II had no official descendants and the heir was his younger brother, the catholic James, Duke of York. Monmouth became a voice of opinion and a screen for opposition to Charles II and James II. After the death of his father, in summer of 1685, the Duke of Monmouth rebelled. He gathered a group of supporters and landed in the West of England. He was supported by the Protestants, who fielded militia detachments. At the Battle of Sedgemoor, the royal army defeated the rebels. Monmouth was captured. James II ordered the execution of his rebellious nephew. The rebellion and execution of the duke became an important and vivid plot of propaganda, both royal and oppositional. The article deals with some aspects of this process.

Abstract:
This paper examines how social exclusion contributes to violence in communities throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. Residents in socially excluded communities cannot depend on those institutions designed to protect them, and violence becomes an instrument to achieve certain outcomes, such as justice, security, and economic gain. When conventional methods of obtaining and working for increased social status, higher income, and wider influence are limited, as they often are in marginalized areas, some feel compelled to resort to violent acts. This paper discusses how social exclusion and violence interact in a vicious circle that leaves the socially excluded in a very hostile social environment where the borders between legal and illegal, legitimate and illegitimate are often fuzzy and uncertain. In this environment violence is used by a minority to acquire justice, security, authority and economic gain. The use of violence by this minority, however, affect the lives of the majority of excluded people that do not resort to violence. As youths are particularly vulnerable to this issue, this paper also examines the relationship between violence and the plight of Latin American youth gangs and street children.
