The book investigates the prevalence of 'routine' infanticide among married parents in early modern Europe, drawing on extensive sources from Italy, France, and England over a span of 300 years. It highlights how this grim reality was overlooked by contemporary legal systems, offering a critical examination of societal norms and judicial responses to such acts. Through a rigorous methodological approach, it reveals the hidden aspects of family dynamics and societal pressures that contributed to this tragic phenomenon.
