WOMEN'S EDUCATION. The Association for Promoting the Education of Women in Oxford.
A run of twenty-three issues of its Report.
Oxford: printed for the Association by the Printers to the University six issues with the imprint of Horace Hart; the last five with that of Frederick Hall 1894-1919. A scarce sequence of reports on the state of women's education in Oxford at the height of the suffragette agitation 23 issues octavo; comprising a total of 616 pages the issues c. 20-30 pp. in length. Original printed paper wrappers sewn and wire-stitched as issued. Housed in a former library's dark purple cloth flat-back box with metal latch closure paper label to spine reading "Australian Council for Educational Research". Each issue complete with stamps shelfmarks and labels of the Education Department Library latterly the Board of Education Library. Overall a scarce survival in very good condition. Shelfwear and creasing to wrappers those for the earliest issue detached; rear wrapper for the 1909-10 issue torn but no loss. A set of important reports published by the pioneering Association for Promoting the Higher Education of Women AEW containing a mass of historical information relating to the state of women's education in Oxford at the height of the suffragette agitation. The earliest is dated 1894-95 the latest 1918-19; each spans from October of one year to the same month of the next. They form an interrupted run due to the absence of two issues 1900-01 and 1910-11. The reports are scarce in any sequence. WorldCat and Library Hub trace runs at the London School of Economics and the British Library and the society's papers and publications are held in the Bodleian deposited in the Library in 1975. The question of women's suffrage and its particular relevance within the structures of the University of Oxford had been a topic of frequent discussion in Oxford prior to the formal debate on the subject at the Oxford Union on 19 February 1880. The work of societies like the Oxford Women's Liberal Association OWLA and the Women's Emancipation Union plus the activism of Florence Davenport Hill who had been a founder member of the Bristol Women's Suffrage society in 1868 and had since moved to Headington paved the way for the existence of groups like the AEW and later the Oxford Women's Suffrage Society. Founded in 1878 the AEW sought "to establish a system of lectures to be conducted with general reference to the Oxford examination of women over 18 years of age which had been introduced in November 1875. The question of the higher education of women had been debated for some years previously … The council and officers of the AEW laid down general rules for the conduct of students and their attendance at lectures and made itself responsible for arrangements with tutors and payment of fees and for the negotiations by which University Examinations were gradually opened to women" Salter & Lobel unpaginated. The organization's work led to the founding of four women's colleges: Lady Margaret Hall and Somerville opened in 1879 followed by St Hugh's in 1886 and St Hilda's in 1893. St Anne's also originated as part of the AEW catering for female students who lived with private families in Oxford while attending courses run by the society. The AEW counted the activist Eleanor Smith 1823-1896 among its founding members and Annie Rogers 1856-1937 Oxford's first woman don as a secretary. The presidents of the Association during the run of the present reports were successively Rev. T. H. Grose; the Master of Balliol College later referred to as Dr Edward Caird also a founding member of the Glasgow and West of Scotland Association for Women's Suffrage; Arthur Sidgwick; and William Martin Geldart. Officers named in the first report 1894-95 include the President of Magdalen the Provost of Oriel the Dean of Christ Church and the Misses Wordsworth Maitland and Moberley Principals of Lady Margaret Hall Somerville College and St Hugh's Hall respectively. Excepting some slight format changes each report begins with a list of the AEW's officers followed by a note from the Secretary and then the report proper. Perhaps the most significant sections are those titled "General Statistics" which provide precise itemised accounts of lectures attended by students tutorial arrangements results of examinations donations and subscriptions. The report of 1917-18 also provides valuable commentary on the "extension of the University Parliamentary Franchise to women who being British subjects and not subject to any legal incapacity have attained the age of thirty and have been admitted to and passed the final examination and kept under the conditions required of women by the University the period of residence necessary for a man to obtain a degree at Oxford marks a very great advance in the status of Women University Students. It was not opposed in Parliament or in the University and every facility for registration has been given to qualified women. They are registered on specially favourable terms as the Act admitting them is so drafted that the fee of £1 for registration cannot be required of persons who are not graduates. The Register contains at present the names of 409 women. It will ordinarily be made up to the last day of Trinity Term and of Michaelmas Term. Qualified women who have not yet been registered should send in their application to the Registrar as soon as possible." The AEW continued its activities until November 1920 when it dissolved itself as the University by admitting women to membership had made itself responsible for them.

Provisione et ordine sopra le Pompe & vestire cosi di Donne come de gli Huomini Apparati di Dote & Banchetti Di ordine dell’Ilustriss & Reverendiss. Monsig. Gio. Battista Castagna Cardinale di San Marcello Legato di Bologna. Publicata in Bologna alli 19. & reiterata alli 23. Di Decembre. M D LXXXIIII.
Bologna: 1584. FIRST EDITION. Quarto:. Bound in modern wrappers. A very fine crisp copy with broad margins and numerous deckles preserved. Woodcut arms on title. First edition of this revision of sumptuary laws regulating dress dowry and feasts promulgated by Cardinal Gabriele Paleotti in 1568 and revised several times until the end of the century. The dress code of women attracts particular attention skirts are meant to be neither too long nor too short; jewelry is to be worn in moderation. A single-strand pearl necklace is acceptable unless it is too long - and variations apply depending on whether a woman is married or not. Special exceptions are made for weddings but even then the social order needs to be upheld and women have to be dressed according to rank and status. Contravention of the detailed rules leads to fines which increase for repeat offenders at nuptial feasts at banquets for public and private parties and indeed at any meal of meat no more than one course of roast and one of boiled meat may be provided. Banned from all banquets shall be trout from any place whatsoever sturgeon fish from the lake pasties confections and all other things made of sugar. Oysters may be served only at private meals for twenty persons or less and not at larger banquets or feasts; collations must be provided in the rooms on the tables and not otherwise they must consist of modest confections of the ordinary products of pastry cooks and of simple fruits of any kind according to the time of the year cf.

Attractive Group of Approximately Seventy Photographs Depicting WAC Nurses on Duty in Esch Luxembourg During World War II
Various places 1945. Very good. Sixty-eight original photographs most approximately 3.5 x 5 inches several larger plus eleven duplicates. Housed in plastic sleeves in a modern leatherette binder.

The first eight photos partially depict the nurses' training period at Camp Swift Texas and Birmingham Alabama.

Women... Concentrated Wisdom for Juicy
CRONES DON'T WHINE: CONCENTRATED WISDOM FOR JUICY WOMEN
Conari Press 2003. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. A tight clean hardcover no markings throughout. Bolen a psychiatrist and professor at the University of California Medical School believes that women need to stand up for their rights wants and desires and can't afford to be complainers or whiners. Explains Bolen the author of The Millionth Circle and Goddesses in Older Women "To be involved and engaged in life is a juicy proposition. Every juicy crone taps into a wellspring or a deep aquifer of meaning in her psyche." They are according to Bolen smart compassionate courageous and humorous. In these brief essays she offers commonsense wisdom calling on women to empower themselves but also to fight against any emotional demons or problems they have. For example in discussing women who have been abused or otherwise have some secret from their past that they're ashamed of she writes "At some point in their lives most remember fearing that this truth would become known. Crones however also recall when and with whom they broke this taboo of silence as the beginning of feeling whole. To speak the truth is to be able to say this is who I am." Fans of Bolen's quirky spiritual tone will find these words comforting. However much of the text discusses why women need to be juicy crones without offering much practical advice to improve one's life. Conari Press hardcover
