19 cent Women Education 1827 America
One of the Earliest Formal Debates on the Value of Education for Women Concludes that Education is Necessary For All Women and Their Daughters
Women's Early Education. Report of the Commission Charged to examine memoirs relative to the education of women. Third Subject. - Morality. By Mr. Philis - Reporter. 1827. Paper boards. Folio size 13 in x 8.5 in. 68 pages of handwritten script in black ink. In this manuscript one of the earliest formal debates on the value of education for women the author radically concludes that formal education for women should be universally accessible: "We think that in whatever condition heaven has placed a woman" the author argues "from the daughter of the Prince to that of the most humble of the subjects there should be a similarity of ideas. When they are wisely explained the elements of Language and Calculations are they not necessary and indispensable to women in all stations" The author then reverses the very argument used against women's education-- that it is unnatural since motherhood is the only suitable destiny for women-- by arguing that education is exactly suited to "what nature formed women to be". "She knows she was created to fulfill duties and penetrated with a sense of those she has to perform she makes all she possesses of enlightened ideas talents and fortune concur in accomplishing them. This is what nature formed women to be and such a well directed education would make her. This is what would make a good mother of a family who would well know how to form daughters worthy of imitating her." Education in fact is as naturally suited to women as motherhood and ought to be the province of adult women and girls alike regardless of age or opportunity-- an ideal still worth fighting for even nearly two centuries later. <br/><br/>It begins with a deceptively leading question: "What is the sort of education most suitable to Woman and the most proper to render them capable of fulfilling their destination as Mothers of families"Although the opening query is limited by modern standards formal education for many children-boys and girls alike-was not considered necessary in this period let alone for adult women with responsibilities in the home. The argument that education would serve women in their motherly duties was a crucial tool for advocates of womens' enfranchisement. The Commission judges three memoirs submitted on this topic and this forms the structure of the manuscript: "The Education Best Adapted to Form A Good Mother of A Family Is That Received at Home"; "It is Well Known That The Bad Education Of Women Does More Harm Than That of Men Because the Want of Good Conduct in Man Proceeds Frequently From The Education They Received From Their Mother ."; and "To Instruct the Children One Must Enlighten the Mothers". Thus the manuscript is valuable not only for its radical ideals but for its historical benefit as an overview of attitudes towards women's education at the turn of the 20th century. Just one year prior in 1826 the first public high schools were opened for girls in New York and Boston; it would be another 13 years until the first woman earned a college Bachelor's degree.  Cover boards worn with light soiling and scattered stains. Even toning and light soiling throughout. Very good to good condition. unknown books

A short period of quiet had begun in which the people were to enjoy a rest before fresh trouble and bloodshed should begin. The fields were filled with waving grain and the woods were fresh and green round the old castle of Dunkirk." Page 155. Light toning. Writing on some pages has faded but still legible. Very good condition.<br/><br/>The novel takes place in medieval England. "The setting sun was sending a flood of light over the hills and distant mountains and over the old castle of Dunkirk making the river Wharfe shine like gold when a little boat shot swiftly out of a turn in the river and came towards the castle. There were two men in it the older man was seated at the stern wrapt in a long dark cloak and having his hap pulled over his face so that only a pair of dark twinkling gray eyes showed below it" page 1.<br/><br/>One of the protagonists is a beautiful teenager about the same age as the author along with a cast of other characters including Lords and Dukes. "She was a most lovely girl. A quantity of dark brown hair that curled around a neck and face of most lovely form and complexion and a mouth of beautiful expression helped to form a face both sweet and lively But the most striking feature was a pair of almost black eyes fringed with long dark lashes. They were full of expression sometimes merry with laughter and again deep and thoughtful. Rose Murray was about seventeen years old at this time she was niece of the Lord of Dunkirk and having hardly any relations except him had always lived with him. Ever since she could remember those old towers had protected and sheltered her" page 8. "Rollin entered a large hall with a huge staircase on one side. Going up the stairs he passed into a passage and after numerous turning and ups and downs he opened a great door and passed into a good sized room. In the middle of this was a round table and on it were papers and books. At one end of the room was a recess with a window with a broad window slit. There was a little shelf on which were a few written books and writing materials.As Rollin entered a gentleman with a paper in his hands look up from his writing and smiling said 'Well Rollin have you had a pleasant time at London and what have you learned while you were gone of the queen's intentions and of what the Duke of York is going to do'" page 5-6.<br/><br/>The tale has adventure suspense and a happy ending. "The patched eye one seemed anxious to go on by his motions urging them to proceed. Rose watched him closely and at last saw him while his companion's backs were turned hold the lantern in such a way as to let his whole figure be distinctly seen and motion them to go back quickly it seemed so to Rose at least. She told this to her companion who was anxiously considering what should be done next" page 99. "And now for the next hour or two before the gray dawn came Lord John and Rose sat talking over all that had happened while they had been apart" page 149. unknown books
