‎[Economics of Marriage] [Scams] Anonymous‎

‎A Scheme for a New Lottery: or a Husband and a Coach and Six for Forty Shillings. Being very advantageous to both Sexes; where a Man may have a Coach and Six and a Wife for Nothing.‎

‎London: Printed for T. Dormer 1732. First edition. Modern quarter morocco over cloth with gilt to spine. Measuring 180 x 111mm and collating complete including frontis folding game board and concluding woodcut: 2 62 2. From the collection of stage magician Ricky Jay with his bookplate to upper pastedown. Top margin trimmed close with consistent loss to running headers and occasional loss to page numbers with no other text effected. Pages somewhat toned with minor marginal chips but otherwise unmarked. A scarce satire playing both on the rising popularity of get-rich-quick schemes and on the economics of the marriage market the present is the only example to appear in the auction record. OCLC locates only twelve institutional copies. The present is the only example currently in trade.<br /> <br /> A Scheme for a New Lottery warns readers against the dangers posed by get-rich-quick schemes targeting large-scale scams like the recently burst South Sea Bubble sometimes called the world’s first Ponzi scheme and the pawn-broking swindle of the so-called Charitable Corporation. These scams were appealing to ordinary people at a time when few were “successful in using wealth from trade to found a landed family†Rapp. Mocking both the conmen and the conned A Scheme satirically proposes “Another Lottery which may prove a general benefit to all concern’d; as there is no better Remedy for a Bite from a Mad Dog than the Liver of the Dog that bit.†The proposed lottery filled with abstruse rules and convoluted promises ensures that the cycle continues.<br /> <br /> A Scheme also mocks marriage as a scam in which women could either make a wise match in a rich man or lose it all by marrying down. The lottery provides “Fifty Thousand tickets to be deliver’d to Maids or Widows or any that appear to be such†in the hopes of winning a financially stable husband represented by the tickets drawn. Such a match could be a good one: “A Ware-House Keeper with the Salary of a Hundred Pounds†or “the Governour.†It could also by virtue of lottery be a loss: “2 Scotchmen both Pedlars 500 Broken Booksellers†and a range of other ruinous bounders are also listed as prizes. For those who desire an advance attempt the folding game bound in the book invites blindfolded women to stick a pin in the board to claim their prize. The present copy was played gently with pin marks revealing a Blacksmith and a Valet de Chambre among those husbands won<br /> <br /> The popularity of A Scheme resulted in a reissue the same year with a canceled title page as The Ladies Lottery and falsely attributed to Swift.<br /> <br /> ESTC N20921.

‎[Marriage & Divorce] [Women's Rights]‎

‎Nuptiae Sacra; or an Inquiry into the Scriptural Doctrine of Marriage and Divorce with Thoughts on the Propriety of Preventing Marriages Founded on Adultery‎

‎London: J. Wright; Philanthropic Reform 1801. First editions. Two pamphlets bound together in modern quarter calf over marbled boards with morocco label to spine. Measuring 203 x 120mm and both collating complete: 4 136; 27 1 blank. Toning throughout both tracts with closed tears to pages 69-70 and 77-80 with no loss of text; contemporary pencil annotations throughout the first tract documenting one reader's responses to the controversial claims. Numbers 2 and 4 in ink to headers of each title suggest these were part of a larger compilation of legal tracts likely the set of four that were offered for sale in the 1923 Walpole Galleries sale which bear matching marks. Each scarce OCLC reports approximately 20 copies of the first title and ESTC locates 3 copies of the second title; they are the only examples currently in trade. <br /> <br /> Two scarce pamphlets engaging in a longstanding debate about whether how and when divorce should be socially and legally acceptable. These two take up the issue of women's sexual agency and Thoughts on the Propriety specifically espouses the notion that women who have engaged in adultery should not be allowed to divorce an existing spouse in order to marry a man with whom they've been unfaithful. Biblical justifications for this ban are presented throughout; but the hypocrisy woven into the argument makes it clear that its author is manufacturing a problem in order to punish and shame the few women for whom this circumstance even exists. <br /> <br /> Marriages at the time could only be dissolved through divorce in an Act of Parliament; thus divorces were only available to the titled and the wealthy. Additionally at the time of Thoughts on the Propriety's publication in 1800 no woman had ever successfully petitioned Parliament for divorce and been granted one. This landmark would come in 1801 the year of publication for Nuptiae Sacra when Jane Campbell successfully petitioned to divorce Edward Addison on the grounds of abuse. "Of the 314 divorce Acts issued before 1857 all but five were initiated by men. Of the five women who petitioned for divorce Jane Campbell was the first to successfully unbind herself from her husband" History of Parliament. Whether the author of Thoughts anticipated such a ruling or not it is clear that the issue at stake was not so much women gaining divorces as women more openly at the turn of the century engaging in pre and extra marital sexual relationships or even in some cases paid sex work. This was in fact occurring; and it was the subject of numerous satires erotic works and religious diatribes dealing with cuckoldry and whoredom. The desire to shame and control women who expressed sexual subjecthood and the impulse to position them as the sinning parties rather than the men who equally engaged in the behavior with them is telling and predicts how future divorce laws would unfold.

‎[Honorable Prostitution] [Economics of Marriage] [Women's Education] [Broadside Ballad]‎

‎The Dandy Wife‎

‎London: T. Birt 1828. First edition. Single sheet measuring 250 x 185mm and printed in two columns to recto. Some edgewear to margins not affecting text; a bit of foxing and toning largely confined to margins. A scarce and delicate survivor OCLC documents only one example at the National Library of Scotland. The present is the only example on the market.<br /> <br /> The Dandy Wife is narrated by a man who aimed "to choose me out a loving wife" at the age of twenty-one but whose experience becomes a warning to "all young men of high renown": "If you want a tidy wife Beware of a boarding school." What unfolds is a satire of how the marriage economy is affected when women have access to knowledge -- intellectual and physical -- and how by meeting a man's superficial expectations a woman can fulfill her own more pressing needs.<br /> <br /> Thinking that a boarding school girl will have the innocence submissiveness and domestic skill he desires the narrator selects a wife from among their ranks. Thinking only of what he can obtain from such a bargain he is unprepared for what an educated woman brings into his house. The Dandy Wife he describes understands the commodity value of her own beauty and material adornment and that these are her key means for acquiring wealth of her own. "She takes one-half of what I earn In drinking gin and tea; Besides such frills and furbelows My Dandy Wife does wear.Her sleeves upon her dandy gown Oh! Lack they're such a size You'd think they were two balloons that in the air would rise." Aside from staying on par with fashion trends her clothing assists her in avoiding domestic tasks she abhors. She refuses to do laundry more than monthly and through ridiculous cooking failures she rapidly establishes that the kitchen is not a showcase for her skillset. Accustomed to a life of learning she is not trained to conduct domestic business. <br /> <br /> By the ballad's end it becomes clear that the Dandy Wife was savvier in managing a marriage than her husband was. For not only does her superior intellect help her carve out a more satisfying role but she also has physical knowledge that predates him: "The day that I was married I thought I'd got a charming maid But I was much deceived.For scarce five months we'd married been When she had a darling son.

‎[Women's Education] [Companionate Marriage] Ward, Hetta L.; Reverend Ward; Susan Hayes‎

‎Memoirs of Mrs. Hetta L. Ward with Selections from her Writings Presentation Copy‎

‎Berkeley: T.R. Marvin 1843. First edition. Very Good . Original publisher's cloth binding with gilt to front board. Minor loss of cloth to crown of spine. Faint residue of removed library label to spine and front board. Peach endpapers. Light scattered foxing as is typical of the period. Inscribed on the front endpaper by Ward's husband the compiler: "Reverend Mr. Ellingwood with the respects of J.W. Ward." Bookplate on the front pastedown reveals that the recipient Rev. Ellingwood went on to donate the volume to the Theological Seminary of Bangor Maine. A scarce and important example of a published American elegiac volume produced in this case by an eminent family to mourn the loss of an educated woman. Memoirs is unrecorded by OCLC and has never appeared at auction. <br /> <br /> In their marriage James Wilson Ward and Hetta Lord Hayes Ward united two prominent Northeastern families. A senator and Congregationalist minister James descended from the founders of Plymouth and had attended Andover and Amherst. Hetta the daughter of a judge and niece of a Dartmouth president was herself a graduate of Miss Grant's Seminary Academy. The present volume released "exclusively for private circulation among the friends of the deceased" is a testament to Hetta's value not as a daughter who married well or a wife who effectively managed a house but as a companion an intellectual and an individual. In this sense it deconstructs the period's expectations of separate spheres or hierarchy between sexes. With an opening letter by Susan Hayes Hetta's mother as well as a copy of the eulogy conducted by her husband the book reveals vast details about who Hetta was as a person. Both describe her as tender and affectionate; but time and again emphasis is placed on her mind. Though Hetta was skillful with a needle as a child according to her mother "her numberless questions interested and surprised me.She acquired a fondness for poetry.She became as much interested in the in the study of the exact sciences as in the works of imagination making herself acquainted with the higher branches of Mathematics Algebra Geometry etc." James similarly eulogizes his wife. What becomes clear is that he is grieving the loss of a companion and equal. "If we have found a friend of distinguished excellence and for years rejoiced with that friend in mutual interchange and warm affections it is natural when death intervenes and separates us from the dear object of our love to contemplate their virtues.First characteristic which I would notice which she possessed in an eminent degree is an ardent love of truth.She possessed great powers of abstraction.She saw with great clearness the point of an argument and was quick to distinguish between sophistry.She loved to trace the workings of the human mind." Not satisfied simply to have their own testaments to Hetta's extraordinary mind the compilers included to the last half of the book a collection of her own poetry and prose.<br /> <br /> A scarce work in a genre underappreciated in American literature and history. Such coterie publications of intimate mourning were uncommon for the time particularly for a woman.<br /> <br /> National Cyclopedia of American Biography 148. Very Good . T.R. Marvin unknown‎
