Family is one of the oldest public institutions, in which priests, medics and lawyers have showed an interest throughout the history. However in the earliest historicai signs of humans one can find psychological attempts to affect a family's prosperity and compatibility. The present work tries to carry out a brief exposition of the evolution of ancient rural families from a social and legal scope as well as the most relevant characters of the family and marriage institutions in a comparative perspective, studying different conceptions and requirements of law of marriage (basically the consent of the couple) and the influence of the religion on them. It is also made an exposition of the most relevant examples of nowadays legislations and their common legal background as well as the more important differences among the different legislations included in the study.

The article analyzes the 17th -18th century steppe territory problem from the point of view of historical geography and historical cartography. Steppes are considered to be complex, multifaceted natural phenomena that determine the specific social and political development of their territories. The aim of this research is to recognise the territorial visualization of the steppe in 17th -18th c. maps intended for Eastern and Central Eastern Europe, Asia, and Ukraine in particular. The research centers on the works of French (Guillaume Le Vasseur de Beauplan, Nicolas Sanson d'Abbeville, Joseph-Nicolas Delisle, Guillaume Delisle), Italian (Giovanni-Antonio Rizzi-Zannoni), German (Johann Baptist Homann), and Austrian (Franz Johann Joseph von Reilly) cartographers. Their investigation discloses that in the maps of the period under consideration the steppes had already been mapped out not only as natural systems, but as socio-geographic and socio-economical structures as well. The main elements of the map contents, showing the steppe's territorial absorptive direction, development, and rates, were the cartography of the land road net, the defense systems as well as bridges, banks/ mounds, trenches, single fortified villages, and other minor-scale objects. These objects best reflect the links that tied the inhabitants and the whole state to the colonized space and also allow the consideration of human mobility in a particular territory, and of the possibilities of movement in general. The totality of natural, socio-economic, and military defensive attributes featured in the maps supports the idea that primacy was accorded to the military colonization aspect: the establishment of territorial structures was primarily based on the formation of a network of fortified villages/settlements and fort systems.

Many scholars have studied the role and function of history during Baroque and Renaissance in Europe. However, they often ignored that the challenges put out by the new religious, political and scientific reforms made the philosophy of history an ideological battlefield. Aiming to better understand the dynamics of the conflict in the field of history-thinking during the period 1580–1661, the definition of the Jesuits' historiographic canon (coherently implemented at a European level) is the main goal of this research. The study of a symbolic and representative case of Jesuits' method of history making has been defined as the object of this thesis. The emblematic case studied in this work is the historical production of the Lithuanian Jesuit Albert Wijuk-Koialowicz. The thesis demonstrates that the Jesuits, during the period 1580–1661, had actually elaborated an historiographic canon as an answer to the spread of the new scientific method and the dissemination of new moral and political values. This canon was based on the methodological theories of Pedro Hurtado de Mendoza and on the unionist prescriptions of Antonio Possevino. We proved that the canon was consistently implemented beyond the geographic limits usually attributed to the European intellectual debate with examples from Spain (J. de Mariana) to Lithuania (A. W. Koialowicz). Finally, we concluded that the historical production of A. W. Koialowicz could be described as a representative example of the implementation of this historiographic canon. This is the main reason for the discrepancies between A. W. Koialowicz's main sources and his historical accounts: he needed to abide with the rules and philosophy of his Order.
