‎WOMEN OF ALL NATIONS. A RECORD OF THEIR CHARACTERISTICS HABITS MANNERS CUSTOMS AND INFLUENCE‎

‎London and elsewhere: Cassell and Company Limited 1908. FIRST EDITION. 286 x 200 mm. 11 1/4 x 7 7/8". Two volumes. Edited by T. Athol Joyce and N. W. Thomas. FIRST EDITION. Pleasing burgundy half morocco raised bands spine gilt in double-ruled compartments with scrolling cornerpieces gilt titling marbled endpapers top edges gilt. With 26 color plates 54 full-page black and white photographs and hundreds of other black and white photographs in the text. Front pastedowns with bookplates of Henry Bartholomay. Spines just a little darkened and faintly dulled a hint of rubbing to extremities otherwise fine the text clean fresh and bright and the bindings with negligible wear. First published as a fortnightly serial this comprehensive ethnographic survey on the lives of women all over the world was edited by anthropologists Thomas Athol Joyce 1878-1942 and Northcote Whitridge Thomas 1868-1936. Volume I is devoted to the southern hemisphere volume II to the northern. Joyce authored the chapter on New Zealand and Thomas those on Australia the Philippines and the west coast of Africa. Other sections were written by those who knew the areas well either as travellers or residents. Ella Sykes 1863-1939 the intrepid traveller who was the first European woman to visit the interior of Persia wrote the entry on that country. Alice Werner 1859-1935 the first professor of Bantu languages in Great Britain contributed the chapter on South and South-West Africa and prominent Norwegian feminist Gina Krog 1847-1916 authored the entry on her native land. Other contributors included colonial administrator and travel writer A. R. Colquhoun folklorist Lucy M. J. Garnett travel writers Jesse Ackermann and Clive Holland and prominent American ethnologists Walter Hough and Otis Mason. The work takes a decidedly feminist perspective with as much attention given to the status of women in their respective societies as to their costumes and customs; the achievement of universal female sufferage is presented as inevitable and as a postive thing for civilization. The copious illustrations document the work and lives of women from all corners of the globe and perhaps have more enduring interest than the text which for all its progressive attitudes on the status of women is somewhat tainted by the cultural and racial biases of its time. This was an popular work going to four editions by 1915. Cassell and Company, Limited unknown‎

‎WOMEN EDUCATION DUNBAR Charles F.‎

‎Reply to Dr. Stillé's Strictures on the Harvard Examinations for Women wrapper title‎

‎Philadelphia: Penn Monthly 1878. Offprint. First separate edition. Octavo. Sewn pamphlet; printed blue paper wrappers; 12pp; errata slip bound in after final leaf of text. Rear wrapper neatly detached; old tide-line to upper margin of front wrapper; text tight and unmarked - a Good complete and sound copy. Signed in type and end of text by Charles F. Dunbar. Article reprinted from the April 1878 issue of Otis Kendall's Penn Monthly in which Stillé's original article had appeared two months earlier. Dunbar an eminent Harvard economist answers the criticisms of Stillé then provost of the University of Pennsylvania who had taken issue with the profferment of the Harvard Preliminary Examination for Women in the city of Philadelphia. Stillé's argument appears to have been based as much on parochialism as criticism of the exam's content; he was at this time working to raise the profile of Penn among elite American universities and resented the incursion of Harvard onto Penn's home turf. But Stillé evinces more than a little snobbery to say nothing of chauvinism in his assertion that ".no hot-house treatment which forces a precocious and unnatural development can ever produce that fruit which is the support and comfort of human life" - an assertion which Dr. Dunbar answers somewhat caustically: "These truths are well-worn and not denied but if they serve in connection any other purpose than that of a modest rhetorical embellishment it is because the relate to some fancied system quite different from that under discussion." <br/><br/>Despite widespread criticisms similar to the ones ably answered by Dunbar in the present essay The Harvard Examinations for Women - quite stringent covering a wide range of subjects and requiring their subjects to answer in at least two languages other than English - eventually became a national standard for the accreditation of young women who were unable whether for reasons of gender or circumstance to attend four-year universities. Stillé meanwhile became one of the University of Pennsylvania's historical icons; ".the extraordinary progress begun in his administration initiated the great expansion that was to continue under his immediate successors." DAB. The pamphlet appears uncommon - though widely catalogued in WorldCat nearly all holdings examined appear to be digital copies of the original held at Harvard's Schlesinger Library. unknown books‎

‎THE BEAUTIES OF THE BOSPHORUS‎

‎London: Published for the proprietors by George Virtue 1838. FIRST EDITION. 298 x 220 mm. 11 1/4 x 8 3/4". iv 164 pp. FIRST EDITION. Contemporary half calf over rose-colored cloth by John Gray of Edinburgh with his ticket on front pastedown raised bands spine gilt in compartments. With frontispiece portrait of the author engraved title and 79 plates after William H. Bartlett including one map of the area. Front free endpaper with tipped-in letter signed by the author; with two-page biography of the author and transcription of the letter loosely laid in. Ross pp. 43-44; Blackmer Catalogue 888; Hunnisett p. 114. Spine and top edge of covers just slightly faded silk with a little minor spotting contents with scattered light foxing mostly confined to margins and versos of plates persistent light marginal stain in upper gutter but these issues all quite minor and on the whole a clean solid attractive copy with no major defects. This is a notable item for at least three reasons: it was one of the major books in the canon of illustrated volumes produced by Bartlett; it was significant as an early work on the region by a woman; and in the words of the Blackmer Catalogue it "had much influence in terms of increasing popular appreciation of its subject." Reviewers praised Bartlett's work as Virtue published volume after volume the illustrations of which--varied and picturesque--reminded readers of places as far apart as the Golden Horn and the Catterskill Falls. About the region depicted in the present work Ross quotes a letter from Bartlett to William Beattie in which he describes Constantinople and surroundings as "a vast phantasmagoria--very much like a moving diorama full of scenes from fairy tales." A writer of fiction biography and travel accounts Pardoe 1806-62 devoted her adult life to unremitting study and literary production. The "Feminist Companion" indicates that her travel books including this one but especially her work dealing with Hungary were well researched and even if they are "somewhat florid" they are also "sympathetic to unfamiliar customs and beliefs." This is a common book but our volume is distinguished from other copies by its condition without any extensive foxing as is often the case as well as the tipped-in letter from Pardoe to someone associated with Harper's Magazine regarding possible contributions to the periodical. Her tone is delightfully frank noting that she would "forward a submission with pleasure if I have time to do so" but warns that she "must in all cases select my own subjects.

‎Three Sisters: An Intimate Photo Album of the Midwest Between World Wars‎

‎Women. Photo Album: Three Sisters. Midwest 1918-1927. Oblong octavo. Covers are brown cloth boards held by ties. Oblong octavo 11" x 7" inches. Title "Photographs" in gilt. 230 snapshots in a variety of sizes most 3.5" x 4.5" inches but also 2.25" x 3.5" 1.5" x 2.25" and 7" x 5". Both black and white and sepia in glossy and matte finishes. Very occasionally torn along the fold and minor silvering to a few photos. The life of three sisters growing up in the Midwest is captured with warmth and incredible detail creating a culturally significant document of middle-class family life between the World Wars. The majority are captioned in white pencil or white ink with the name of the person in the photo and a brief description like "Sunday best"; some are a little ironic tone such as "Seeking sunburn" underneath a photo of two of the sisters sweaty and bare armed in a row boat and "No water but our tongues" under a picture of the sisters as little children in bathing suits on their porch pulling silly faces. We follow the women from childhood through early adulthood through their schools and summer camps across suburban Ohio the shores of Michigan and the wooded Ozarks. The private lives of these young girls are revealed to be impish spirited and silly in these intimate photographs; At the same time they were growing up in a period of great change. With the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920 they were the first generation of women to come of age in a time when they could exercise the right to vote. Bumping at corners and a half-inch tear at top of spine otherwise clean. First page separated. A fascinating cultural artifact of a historically significant period for women's rights. unknown books‎

‎Antique Needlepoint Sampler 1815‎

‎Girls' Education Original vintage cross-stitch sampler. 1815. 11.5" x 15" in. Alphabet cross-stitched in capital and lower case letters with decorative embroidered border and information on maker stitched at bottom: "Mary Ruffle October 25 1815 Aged 9". Samplers were valuable parts of girls' education from the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries as it demonstrated both their skill in needlepoint and their achievements in literacy. From the 1800s the very first schools and academies for young women in America had their students create needlepoint pieces with decorative motifs such as verses or the entire alphabet being stitched on the sampler. The parents of these young women proudly displayed their embroideries as showpieces of their daughter's talent and status. In recent years these samplers have become important in museum collections as representations of early American female education. Alphabet "&" numbers 1 through 8 and motif of trees vines flowers and a crown in navy orange pink dark green brown and white thread. C. Toned. Few threads frayed. Very good. unknown books‎
