1894réf. 221311894. Women's EmploymentLaborFeminism Collet Clara Elizabeth. Report by Miss Collet on the Statistics of Employment of Women and Girls. London: Her Majesty's Stationery Office 1894. First edition. 153 pages. Rebound with blue cardstock wrappers with blue cloth spine. A foundational document in the history of women's labor rights in the United Kingdom this government-commissioned report by feminist economist and civil servant Clara Collet presents a rigorously detailed statistical study of female employment across various industries and regions in late 19th-century Britain. The report was produced under the auspices of the Board of Trade's Labour Department and presented to both Houses of Parliament by command of Queen Victoria. Collet's work documents an early official recognition of gender disparities in wages labor conditions and occupational distribution. Clara Collet was a pioneering advocate for working-class women. In this report she compiles extensive census and wage data comparing the years 1881 and 1891 with particular focus on textile and manufacturing sectors including cotton wool and worsted mills. The report also explores regional patterns in employment rates of marriage and widowhood and the social consequences of low female wages. Appendices provide granular data segmented by occupation and geography highlighting for instance employment patterns among married women and child laborers. Of note is Collet's contextual analysis of women's roles in both domestic and industrial economies and her subtle but pointed criticism of systemic inequalities in pay and opportunity. Her work prefigures later feminist labor studies by over half a century and has been cited by scholars as foundational to the evolution of state labor policy in Britain. Pages toned with scattered foxing binding stable and professionally renewed; textblock complete. Overall good to very good condition. A landmark primary source in the history of women's labor advocacy and feminist economics and a rare survival in its first edition. unknown

Duodecimo 19 cm Beige cloth over boards with a black ink stamped title on the backstrip and front board and black ink stamped single-ruled borders on the front board.

Very occasional brief markings mostly in the form of hatching in pencil and colored pencil. With two newspaper clippings pertaining to Emma Goldman "Red Emma" laid in. A classic of radical literature. Third edition printed on front cover. Emma Goldman was once viewed as "the most dangerous woman in America" and was a thinker so far ahead of her time that even today her views seem strikingly revolutionary. This collection of essays is a magnificent introduction to her thoughts: ranging from her views on women's suffrage and emancipation patriotism's menace to liberty the psychology of political violence the prison system "a social crime and failure" the hypocrisy of Puritanism and the strategies of dissent. These writings all reflect her fearless joyousness her radical dedication to the idea that life is meant to be a source of delight- and that avoiding the meaningless grind of everyday life must be achieved in any way possible. This copy is inscribed not to a specific person by Emma Goldman on the front free endpaper: "Emma Goldman / Portland August / 1916." Emma Goldman 1869-1940 was born in Kovno now Kaunas Lithuania. She grew up in what is now Kaliningrad Russia and in St. Petersburg. Her formal education was limited but she read widely and in St. Petersburg became involved with a radical student circle. She immigrated to the United States in 1885 first settling in Rochester New York then in New Haven Connecticut where she worked in clothing factories and came into contact with socialist and anarchist groups. Subsequently she moved to New York City where in 1893 she was jailed for inciting a riot when a group of unemployed workers reacted to a fiery speech she had delivered. In 1895 upon her release Goldman began lecturing throughout Europe and the United States and later in 1906 Goldman founded Mother Earth a periodical that she edited until its suppression in 1917. Goldman's naturalization as a U.S. citizen was revoked by a legal stratagem in 1908. Two years later she published Anarchism and Other Essays. An early edition of Goldman's famous essays signed by the much revered revolutionary activist author just under a year before she was sentenced to two years in prison for her opposition to the U.S. involvement in World War I and for agitating against mandatory military service.

1890réf. 220271890. Women's Education Three lectures on women's education in Victorian England. Wilson J. M. Three Addresses to Girls at School. London: Percival & Co. 1890. First edition. Original printed brown paper wrappers stitched binding no dust jacket as issued. Delivered between 1887 and 1890 these addresses by Reverend J. M. Wilson-former Head Master of Clifton College and Vicar of Rochdale-offer a pointed reflection on the role of education and religion in shaping the intellectual lives of young women in late Victorian Britain. Each speech was delivered at a girls' high school: the first at Clifton High School 1887 the second at Bath and Clifton 1889 and the third at St. Leonard's School St. Andrews 1890. While framed within the conservative moral expectations of the period Wilson's lectures nonetheless emphasize the legitimacy and value of female academic achievement and make a case for structured standardized education for girls-a relatively progressive position for its time. Notably Wilson defends the Higher Certificate Examination as a measure of "absolute merit" asserting that these certificates serve as proof of both academic competence and institutional rigor. In one significant passage Wilson explains how girls at Clifton High School were permitted to pass examinations in stages-two subjects one year and two the next-unlike boys who were expected to complete all four at once. This practical concession reflects both the social constraints placed on girls and an evolving acknowledgment of their academic seriousness. His emphasis on certificates as both a pedagogical guide for teachers and a tool for public accountability is central to his educational philosophy: "They help to make your work definite and sound: and that if it is slipshod you shall at any rate know that it is slipshod." Though clearly reflective of the gendered assumptions of the time the text offers valuable insight into the advocacy for women's structured schooling during the late 19th century. Front cover moderately soiled with edge wear and a small numeric marking to the lower left corner. Front wrapper and end pages detached. Internal pages clean and unmarked aside from a faint institutional stamp on the title page. Overall fair condition. A scarce record of late Victorian attitudes toward women's education notable for its firsthand account of the evolving role of girls' high schools in Britain. unknown

He ends his book with the question "This is law but is this justice" Covers detached spine worn. Pages clean and textblock tight. Good condition. unknown
1919réf. 149951919. National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs plaque 1919 commemorates the founding year of a national organization created to coordinate and advance the interests of business and professional women. Established on July 16 1919 after wartime efforts to identify women's professional skills and experience the Federation developed from organizing associated with the Women's War Council and the mobilization of women workers during World War I. Its formation preceded ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920 and placed questions of women's employment professional advancement and political participation within a national organizational structure. Large bronze embossed seal of the National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs mounted on wood and dated 1919. The Federation was organized at its first national convention in St. Louis in July 1919 under the leadership of Lena Madesin Phillips with Gail Laughlin elected its first national president. Early Federation work included a national survey of business and professional women addressing their status qualifications opportunities and working conditions providing an organized basis for advocacy concerning women's economic and professional life. The plaque dates from the Federation's founding year when women were entering professional occupations in greater numbers while still lacking federally protected voting rights nationwide. The organization continued to advocate on issues affecting working women and to promote professional development leadership and economic opportunity. The bronze seal mounted on wood survives as an organizational artifact from the Federation's establishment in 1919 one year before ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment extended constitutional protection for women's suffrage nationwide. unknown
