1860réf. 165691860. J. B. Remarks on the Obstacles to the More General Employment of Women and on the Means of Removing Them 1860. First edition of a pamphlet advocating expanded employment opportunities for British women and identifying discriminatory hiring practices opposition from male workers and limited occupational choices as causes of female poverty. Published through the English Woman's Journal a periodical closely associated with the Langham Place circle of women's rights reformers the pamphlet appeared during an organized campaign to open professions and skilled occupations previously reserved for men. Its author directly challenges workplace resistance to female labor: "Women however cannot be employed in England in this manner because of the jealousy of their fellow workmen. If a master were to employ women in any part of the business the whole of his workmen would strike at once." The passage identifies threatened industrial action by male employees as a practical obstacle to women's economic advancement even when employers were willing to hire them. J. B. Remarks on the Obstacles to the More General Employment of Women and on the Means of Removing Them. London: Published at the Office of the English Woman's Journal Company Limited 1860. First edition. 16 pages. Original paper wrappers measuring 8¼ x 5¼ inches. Reprinted from the English Woman's Journal the pamphlet examines barriers preventing women from obtaining sufficient paid employment and proposes measures to expand their opportunities. The author connects occupational exclusion with increasing demands upon public and private charitable institutions: "Workhouses were found to be overcrowded with able-bodies females while charities were besieged with women praying to be provided either with employment or bread." These observations link women's unemployment directly to poverty relief while the discussion of male workers' resistance identifies the exclusionary practices that prevented women from entering better-paid occupations. The pamphlet was published shortly after the establishment of the Society for Promoting the Employment of Women in 1859 an organization associated with Jessie Boucherett Barbara Leigh Smith Bodichon and other members of the Langham Place circle. The Society sought to expand women's access to commercial clerical and skilled employment through vocational training and direct engagement with employers. The pamphlet's discussion of workplace opposition and overcrowded workhouses provides contemporary evidence of the economic conditions these reformers sought to address preceding later campaigns for women's property rights and equal access to professions. Stain to upper left edge of front wrapper toning to final page and light pencil markings in margins. Very good condition. unknown books
