1. contrasting study the excerpts from the
justinian code. what does the code say
about marriage?

I found this (I hope it helps):

Roman citizens are bound together in lawful matrimony when they are

united according to law, the males having attained the age of puberty,

and the females a marriageable age, whether they are fathers or sons

of a family; but, of the latter, they must first obtain the consent of

their parents, in whose power they are. For both natural reason and

the law require this consent; so much so, indeed, that it ought to

precede the marriage.It is not every women that can be taken as a

wife: for marriage with certain classes or persons is forbidden.
