Excerpt from Etude sur le Divorce en Autriche Jusque vers la nu du siecle dernier, il n'y eut pas en Antriebe de lois civiles sur le mariage. La loi religieuse des epoux le regissait. Ainsi l'on appliquait aux catholiques le droit canonique, speciale ment les regles posees par le Concile de Trente. Les affaires matri moniales etaient de la competence des tribunaux ecclesiastiques. Le pouvoir seculier ne s'etait occupe du mariage qu'au point de vue de ses effets pecuniaires.
