[Prison Reform] Wines, Enoch CobbBiblio.com

Prison Reform in the United States. Proceedings of a Conference Held at Newport Rhode Island August 1st and 2d 1877

1877réf. BK0163New York: National Printing Company 1877. 8vo 56 pp. Original printed wrappers. "Compliments of Dr. Wines" slip affixed to title page. Near fine with a small tear to front wrapper at seam. Proceedings of an important national conference on prison reform organized around a program prepared by Enoch Cobb Wines the leading American prison reformer of the period. Wines had served as secretary of the New York Prison Association and was instrumental in organizing the landmark National Congress on Penitentiary and Reformatory Discipline at Cincinnati in 1870. The Newport conference met seven years later to formulate a practical system of penal institutions and policies that could be recommended to state legislatures. Much of the pamphlet is devoted to the conference's "Outline Draft of a System of Preventive Reformatory and Penitentiary Institutions and Discipline" which attempted to address criminal justice as a single system extending from childhood through incarceration. Its recommendations begin with compulsory education and institutions for neglected and delinquent children and proceed through reform schools houses of detention women's prisons county jails and state penitentiaries. The conference was particularly severe in its judgment of the existing jail system: "The county jails of the United States numbering about two thousand are with few exceptions schools of vice nurseries of crime and feeders of the penitentiaries. Their construction and management are alike bad; indeed the former is so radically defective as to render any good administration of them impossible." The conference occurred during a period when many of Wines's ideas were beginning to find practical application most notably at Elmira under Zebulon Brockway. Its recommendations ranged from compulsory education and separate institutions for juveniles and women to trained prison officers productive labor improved sanitation and greater state oversight. The "Compliments of Dr. Wines" slip gives this copy a nice association with the man chiefly responsible for both the conference and the program it produced. . National Printing Company unknown

Women's Employment and Public Health Reform in Remarks on Woman's Work in Sanitary Reform 1858: "the amelioration of injurious external circumstances" and "the reform of injurious habits and customs

1858réf. 197991858. Powers Susan Rugeley. Remarks on Woman's Work in Sanitary Reform is a circa 1859 pamphlet documenting Victorian women's public health work through the system of sanitary reform revealing how women's domestic educational and visiting labor was framed as essential to national health. Addressed to mothers educators tract distributors and visitors of schools cottages and workhouses the text asks "What can woman do in her domestic and social capacities to remedy these evils" and answers by assigning women authority over household health infant care education and habits. The pamphlet supports research into women's employment Victorian public health sanitary reform feminist social thought and the expansion of women's public roles through reform labor. Powers Susan Rugeley. Remarks on Woman's Work in Sanitary Reform. London: Tweedie circa 1859. 20 pages. 8vo. The pamphlet divides sanitary labor into "the amelioration of injurious external circumstances" and "the reform of injurious habits and customs" identifying the former principally with men and the latter principally with women. Powers argues "It is for woman in her functions of mother housewife and teacher" to change infant management domestic economy education and the habits of women and adds that "It is for her to teach and apply the laws of health in her own provinces where man cannot act." Susan Rugeley Powers was the first secretary of the Ladies' Sanitary Association an organization founded to educate working-class communities on public health; the pamphlet was also connected to the English Woman's Journal and the wider Langham Place reform milieu. The pamphlet demonstrates the process by which sanitary reform converted gendered domestic expertise into organized public health labor giving women a socially sanctioned role in health education before broader access to professional employment. Contemporary holdings appear limited: a dealer record notes four WorldCat copies and three COPAC copies while a University of Wisconsin catalog record identifies a later microfilm version associated with the English Woman's Journal. Slight chipping at binding; pages held together; minor wear. Overall very good. A focused Victorian women's reform pamphlet linking public health domestic authority and early arguments for women's socially necessary work. unknown
