Abstract

This article examines how J. L. Vives reworks the traditional tenets about virginity. Vives begins with the claim of defining marriage as a Christian institution which represents the union of love and the pursuit of harmony. Virginity will be a characteristic of all states because it essentially involves the ability to assess things in a reasonable manner and, from that assessment, to choose the best and truly useful one.
