‎Admission of Women to Oxford University- Archive 50 Very Rare Documents 1896‎

‎Women at Oxford. Archive of papers recording the great debate between the Association for promoting the Education of Women AEW at Oxford and the faculty and students who opposed their entrance. 1895-1896. Total of 50 separate documents ranging from printed single page letters through bound booklets. The majority of these documents are known to exist only in one single additional copy held by the University of Oxford; and several of the papers are not noted to be included even within Oxford's collection as per OCLC worldcat. <br/><br/> This collection of papers is ripe for scholarly research. Forming a cohesive archive of 50 documents it includes synopses of the contents and resolution of meetings of the AEW arguments concerning various aspects of the question of inclusion of women at Oxford and advice for members concerning upcoming resolutions put to vote. The AEW was founded in 1873 to gain the full educational enfranchisement of women at Oxford who had actually been attending classes in small numbers by special permission since 1866. Despite vigorous support for the cause Oxford maintained as nearly the last hold-out against coeducation among British Universities not allowing women to gain the full B.A. degree until 1920. Some documents of the archive include "The Due Recognition of Women by the University of Oxford" 1896; "A Brief History of the Proposal to Admit Women to Degrees at Cambridge in 1887-8" by Thomas Case 1896; "The Value of a Genuine Diploma"; and "The B.A. Degree for Women." Full list available upon request. Individual pages or booklets sizes vary. Some hole-punched a few corner tears light edge soiling and toning. Some stamped with circular stamp "Board of Education Library"; most with numerical markers in red to upper right corner of documents. All in good condition and clearly legible. Full of sagacity and wit this archive evidences the reasoned support of women's right to the diploma over twenty years before it was finally granted.<br/> <br/>A partial List of Publications and some OCLC Worldcat search results: "most" are held only at Oxford University and no other copies at any institutions or library worldwide. 4 items had no copies at any Liabraries as per OCLC not even Oxford.

‎Oxoniae: E Theatro Sheldoniano 1729. 8vo in 4s 15.9 cm 6.25". 24 232 lacking pp. 227–30 pp. <br><br>18th-century edition of this collection of selected statutes of the University of Oxford originally compiled by Thomas Crossfield of Queen's College and printed in 1638 under the title Statuta selecta è corpore statutorum Universitatis Oxon. The section Statuta Bibliothecae Bodleianae is of special interest to book people though the notes on disturbing the peace and de nocturna Vagatione cannot but please the Latinate.<br>    That this is a volume of "selections" is trumpeted on the title-page. However both usefully for the seeker of context and at points confusingly for the actual reader its table of contents seems to be not for what's present as selected but for the text in full extent — so the table announces for example that "Titulus XVII" comprises nine sections and lists these even unto the subsections though the body of the book itself sets forth sections five and six only.<br>    The title-page offers a handsome vignette of the Theatre not one of the commonest ones. <br>    <br>    ESTC T118673; Madan Oxford Books 17. Period-style calf framed and panelled in blind with blind-tooled corner fleurons and rather elaborate additional decorations in blind; spine with gilt-stamped title and publication information and different blind-tooled decorations. Endpapers a little smudged and title-page mounted with edges darkened. Early inked ownership inscription in upper margin of first text page mostly torn away with loss of a few words. Pp. 227–30 lacking being the last bit of the printing of the Church of England's 39 Articles and the first part of the section "De Eligendis Publicis Lectoribus." Pages faintly age-toned with occasional light spotting; mostly clean. E Theatro Sheldoniano unknown books‎

‎Terrae-Filius; or the Secret History of the University of Oxford; in Several Essays. To which are added Remarks upon a late Book entitled "University Education" by R. Newton‎

‎London: Printed for R. Francklin 1754. Third edition. 1 vols. 8vo. Contemporary calf worn front cover off some browning and spotting generally light and marginal endpapers browned front free endpaper loose. Third edition. 1 vols. 8vo. Secret History of the University of Oxford. Amhurst was expelled from Oxford in 1719 supposedly for his "libertinism and misconduct" but he attributed it to the university's dislike of his "persistent Whig principles and of his openly expressed hatred of toryism and of the extreme high-church party" DNB. In revenge or response he began this work as a periodical paper which appeared twice-weekly from January 11 to 6 July 1721. It is a satire on the university and university life and quite humorous in its depiction of early 18th century university life. Printed for R. Francklin unknown books‎

Very faint waterstaining to the lower right corner well away from the image the frame's gilt a little rubbed in places else fine. Harding George P. Pena and ink and watercolor on paper. 1 vols. Image size is 6 x 5 inches; including border and thin gilt frame the overall dimemsions are 14 x 9 1/2 inches. The Original Ashmole Watercolor for Ackermann's Oxford. A fine watercolor rendering based on Ashmole's Foundation Portrait by John Riley at Oxford's Ashmolean Museum and used as a plate in Ackermann's The History of the University of Oxford 1814.<br/><br/>The watercolor follows Riley very closely but there are differences: the subject's hand rests on a shorter book lowering the angle of the arm there is no ring on the left hand there are slight differences in costume and the subject's face appears thinner giving the impression of a younger man. Beneath the image is lettered in black ink "Elias Ashmole Esqr. / Founder of the Ashmolean Museum Oxford." Below this in the large bottom margin is written in pencil "The Original Drawing by Geo. P. Harding executed for Ackermann published in The History of the University of Oxford 2 vols 1814."<br/><br/>Elias Ashmole 1617-1692 scholar courtier antiquary heraldric authority and author of The Institution Laws and Ceremonies of the Order of the Garter 1672 inherited through his friendship with John Tradescant keeper of the botanical gardens at Chelsea and his widow a large collection of artifacts and curiosities which he offered to Oxford with the stipulation that the University provide a building to house it which in 1682 it did. This building in Oxford's Broad Street is now the home of The Museum of the History of Science. Thus while he did not form the collection which bears his name it was he who catalogued it brought it to Oxford ensured its survival and set the Ashmolean Museum on the path to becoming the world-class institution it is today.<br/><br/>A FINE AND HISTORIC PORTRAIT. unknown books‎
