Coverture (sometimes spelled couverture) was a legal doctrine in the English common law in which a married woman's legal existence was considered to be merged with that of her husband, so that she had no independent legal existence of her own. Upon marriage, coverture provided that a woman became a feme covert, whose legal rights and obligations were mostly subsumed by those of her husband. An unmarried woman, or feme sole, had the right to own property and make contracts in her own name.

  • Coverture ['kʌvətjuə] (покровительство, убежище) — статус замужней женщины и юридический принцип английского общего права, согласно которому с момента выхода замуж женщина теряла гражданскую правоспособность и попадала в полную зависимость от мужа. Сформировался в эпоху высокого и позднего Средневековья. В англосаксонском семейном и гражданском праве в полном объеме и повсеместно существовал до середины XIX-го века и был постепенно упразднён только под напором феминизма. (ru)

  • Coverture (a veces deletreado couverture) era una doctrina legal por la cual, al contraer matrimonio, los derechos y obligaciones legales de una mujer eran subsumidos por los de su esposo, de acuerdo con el estatus legal de la esposa de feme covert. Una mujer soltera, una feme sole, tenía derecho a poseer propiedades y hacer contratos a su nombre. Coverture surge de la ficción legal de que marido y mujer son una sola persona. (es)
  • La coverture était une doctrine juridique selon laquelle la personnalité juridique d'une femme était suspendue au moment de son mariage et se fondait avec celle de son époux. Elle abandonnait alors le statut de feme sole pour celui de feme covert. (fr)
