The theme of the thesis is the partnership between men and women in the second half of the 19th century, on the example of the middle classes in the Czech society. Attention is paid to all stages of relationships before marriage as well as of the marital relationship. The thesis dwells on the development of an ideal partner, the strategy of finding and choosing one, periods of courtesy, and changes of the relationship caused by marriage and the arrival of children. Discussion on the reform of the institution of marriage in the early 20th century between representatives of the Catholic Church and their opponents is also included. One part of the thesis deals with the issue of divorce, marital separation, as well as widowhood. In addition to ego-documents the main sources for the theses were prescriptive literature, social catechisms, periodicals and specialised and academic literature of the period.
