Family
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
Shakespeare is bowdlerized between 1807 and 1818 when The Family Shakespeare is published, expurgating "those words and expressions... which cannot with propriety be read aloud in a family." "All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way" |

A family consists of a domestic group of people (or a number of domestic groups), typically affiliated by birth or marriage, or by analogous or comparable relationships — including (in some cases) ownership (as occurred in the Roman Empire).
