This study traces the decline of marriage as a metaphor for
political authority, subjection, and tyranny in seventeenth-century
political thought. An image that bound consent and contract with
divine right absolutism, and irrevocably connected royal
prerogatives with subjects' liberties, its disappearance in the
middle decades of the century coincided with the full emergence of
patriarchalist and social contract theories. If both these accepted
the importance of "fathers of families," neither would suggest that
political government could be comparable to "marriage."
