Bertha Von Hillern; Women in Sports
Bertha von Hillern Pioneering Woman Athlete and Feminist Writes a Vivid Firsthand Account of a Public Endurance-Walking Exhibition in Her Hand
1877. Bertha von Hillern. Autograph Letter Signed Describing a Pedestrienne Performance in Maine. Four-page autograph letter signed written in Bucksport Maine and dated August 12 1877 from a woman identified as Caitlin to her parents. The letter provides a vivid firsthand account of a public endurance-walking exhibition by Bertha von Hillern one of the most celebrated pedestriennes of the late nineteenth century and a pioneering figure in women's athletic and feminist history. The pedestriennes-now largely forgotten-were among America's first female sports superstars drawing large paying crowds to theatrical endurance contests staged in repurposed halls and theaters. At their height leading pedestriennes earned more in a single week than many Americans made in a year were widely covered in newspapers sold photographic likenesses influenced women's fashion and appeared nationally as celebrities. Their feats challenged prevailing assumptions about women's physical limits and helped reshape public attitudes toward women's independence endurance and public presence.<br /> <br /> The letter situates von Hillern within this broader cultural phenomenon while recording the details of a specific performance witnessed by the writer. Von Hillern a German immigrant from a military family was widely regarded as the first great feminist pedestrienne and performed at least twenty-five solo exhibitions across thirteen cities. In Boston alone approximately 10000 spectators reportedly paid fifty cents each to watch her walk continuously at Music Hall and the Washington Post described her as "one of the wonders of the nineteenth century." Writing from Maine the correspondent recounts attending the exhibition at City Hall noting both the social experience and the athletic spectacle: "in the evening we went to City Hall to see Miss Bertha Von Hillern walk. Perhaps you have seen an account of her in the Boston papers. She is great walkist. She walked 88 miles in 26 hours without resting more than twenty minutes at a time." The letter continues with precise observational detail describing the sawdust-covered track the number of laps required per mile and the nonstop duration of the event which began Friday evening and concluded late Saturday night.<br /> <br /> The writer further conveys the charged atmosphere surrounding the performance emphasizing its communal excitement and theatricality: "Chanlers band furnished music through the whole walk. It was nice music and such excitement and such cheering & waving of handkerchiefs and shouting every time she would make a mile." As a primary document the letter captures not only von Hillern's physical achievement but also the emotional and social intensity of pedestrienne culture at its peak. For institutional collections the letter is an exceptional piece of early feminist Americana offering rare eyewitness testimony to a moment when women's athletic endurance became a public spectacle capable of reshaping gender norms and laying cultural groundwork for modern sports the revival of the Olympic movement and the suffrage-era reimagining of women's capabilities. Condition: The letter shows original folds and age-related toning but remains very readable throughout with no loss of text. Overall condition: Very Good. unknown

Higher Education of Sc/St Girls in Orissa a Study of Participation and Attainment [Hardcover]
Education is acknowledged as the most effective instrument for empowerment of women. Scheduled Caste (SC) and Scheduled Tribe (ST) women are specially disadvantaged due to their low level of educational attainment.

However the same is not true for higher levels of education. This book, the outcome of a major ICSSR Research Project, examines the status of higher education of SC/ST girls, the causes of their low participations and the remedial measures that need to be undertaken for improving the situation. Written in lucid style, the book combines authentic factual documentation with insightful interactions with stakeholders. It will be an invaluable source of reference for policymakers, administrators, educationists and research scholars. Contents: Preface. Acknowledgement. Contents:- 1. Introduction. 2. Survey of literature. 3. Research design and methodology. 4. SC/ST girls in institutions of higher learning: study of enrolment pattern. 5.

Bird, Isabella Lucy [Kay Chubbuck (ed.)]
Letters to Henrietta
"Before her first journey, no one would have guessed that Isabella Bird would become the heroine of Victorian travel. A middle-aged spinster on the Isle of Mull, she suffered from 'neuralgia ... pain in my bones, pricking like pins and needles in my limbs, excruciating nervousness, exhaustion, inflamed eyes, sore throat, swelling of the gland behind each ear, stupidity'. She was too frail to hold up her head without a steel support, and could barely stomach broth. Nonplussed, her doctors packed her off to the Pacific, the antipodean version of the spas of Switzerland, hoping for a cure." "Once there, her transformation was dramatic. Suddenly in Hawaii she could climb the world's highest volcano - and was the first woman to do so; she rode an elephant through the untravelled jungles of Perak; she arrived in Hong Kong just in time to see it burn; and in Colorado she fell in love with a one-eyed desperado called Rocky Mountain Jim. But whenever she came home to Scotland, her illness returned, making another trip essential." "Ultimately, she became a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society (another female first), advised Gladstone on the issue of Armenian Christians, and was presented to Queen Victoria in 1893. She also became the mistress of her own mythology, insisting that her books reproduced her letters without emendation, which was far from true. This selection, never before published, contains lengthy excerpts from her first two world tours: to Australia, Hawaii and Colorado in 1872-3; and to Japan, China, Singapore and Malaya in 1878-9. The Isabella Bird they reveal is not the one we thought we knew but instead tempestuous, self-obsessed, occasionally at odds with the idea of Empire, deflecting marriage proposals right and left. The letters also throw light on a fascinating relationship with Henrietta, the equally clever and curious sister who had to stay behind." 356p. notes, plates index. Book
