Christiani Matrimonii Institutio per Des. Erasmum Roterodamum, opus nunc primum & natum, & excusum

The author re-evaluates the concept of conjugal love: marriage is the mystical union of two souls, the expression of an emotional understanding between spouses. He also suggests a mitigation of the norms on the indissolubility of marriage: if there is conflict between the spouses, for the salvation of their souls he considers the possibility, as extrema ratio, of dissolving their marriage.
