Description
Summary:The document explores delicts against morals before the Regional Court in Olomouc at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, focusing on crimes that violated moral norms, particularly those of a sexual nature. It delves into the legal framework of the Austrian Criminal Code of 1852, judicial interpretations, and the specifics of legal practice in handling such cases. The study emphasizes crimes committed by men against women and girls, excluding other forms of sexual misconduct. Through analysis of court records and proceedings, the research sheds light on the societal and legal attitudes towards sexual crimes, perpetrator and victim profiles, and the broader implications of these delicts on moral and legal norms of the time.
