Q

difference between unity and fidelity (coram Bottone 2003)

A

Unity is excluded when a person is contracting marriage reserves to him or herself the right to have more than one wife or one husband, and hence, it is directly opposed to polygamy and polyandry, or the sharing at one’s own whim his or her body with other people….more recent jurisprudence has explained that the importance of denying to the other party the perpetual and exclusive right rather than of granting it to a third person. The same must be said of the intention of not accepting the exclusive right granted by one’s partner. “We must conclude therefore, that the essential good of fidelity includes, beside the unity of the bond, the right and mutual obligation of the contractants both to the conjugal debt that is to be demanded and granted and to the exclusivity with respect to placing acts proper to the conjugal life. And this is in fact understood differently from the good of offspring, that is not as a right and obligation to conjugal acts for the propagation of life and, therefore, necessary for the generation of offspring, but rather to use sexuality in an exclusive manner between spouses” *c. funghini 1987
