1861réf. BK0164Philadelphia: Publication Committee of the Philadelphia Society for Alleviating the Miseries of Public Prisons 1861. 112 pp. 8vo. Original printed wrappers. Wrappers frayed along spine otherwise near fine internally; very good overall. A defense of the Pennsylvania system of prison discipline advocating the separation of prisoners as a means of moral reform rather than punishment alone. The work was read by appointment before the American Association for the Improvement of Penal and Reformatory Institutions at its annual meeting in New York on November 29 1860 and published the following year by the Philadelphia Society for Alleviating the Miseries of Public Prisons. Foulke was one of Philadelphia's leading nineteenth-century prison reformers and a prominent defender of the system associated with Eastern State Penitentiary in which prisoners were housed separately. By 1860 the practice had become the subject of sustained criticism in the United States and Europe particularly over the psychological effects of prolonged isolation. Foulke takes up those objections at length arguing that cellular separation had been confused with punitive solitary confinement and presenting it instead as a carefully supervised regime intended to encourage reflection and rehabilitation. Foulke engages with Charles Dickens's celebrated attack on the Pennsylvania system after his 1842 visit to Eastern State Penitentiary reproducing and responding to Dickens's account. Published at a time when American penal institutions were becoming an international subject of study and controversy Remarks provides a substantial contemporary statement of the case for one of the country's most influential-and eventually most disputed-experiments in incarceration. .

1849réf. 86600Boston: Bela Marsh 1849. First Edition. First printing. Octavo 18.5cm. Publisher's green embossed cloth titled in gilt; pale salmon endpapers; 414pp; mezzotint portrait frontispiece. A quite attractive copy just lightly rubbed to boards with a few scattered spots of foxing to text; solidly Very Good overall and somewhat uncommon thus. A significant if entirely idiosyncratic work in the annals of American radical reform as much a philosophical treatise as an autobiography. American pacifist freethinker feminist and abolitionist Henry Clarke Wright 1797-1870 though little remembered was among the most interesting radical voices of the mid-19th century a defrocked Presbyterian minister who in his adopted role as a "Christian reformer" preached against all established religions and adopted a thoroughly stridently contrarian voice in nearly every field of social reform he touched which was practically all of them. His views opposing established government put him directly in the line of such individualist anarchists as Lysander Spooner and Benjamin Tucker while his opposition to slavery was so uncompromising that he was ejected from the American Antislavery Society in 1837. He remained closely associated with most of the New England radical abolitionist community however especially with William Lloyd Garrison with whom he frequently collaborated. Like most of Wright's commercially-issued works this one was published by the Boston radical publisher Bela Marsh known for disseminating works by fellow abolitionists and freethinkers during the antebellum period. 86600.

A Summary of the Chief Arguments For and Against Marriage With A Deceased Wife's Sister. London: Marriage Law Reform Association 1883. 15 1 pp. Octavo 8-1/4" x 5-1/2". Stab-stitched pamphlet in self wrappers. Light toning negligible edgewear light foxing in a few places. $350. Third and final edition. A scarce reformist tract representing one of the most protracted legal and social battles of the Victorian era. The Marriage Law Reform Association was established in 1851 to overturn Lord Lyndhurst's Marriage Act of 1835 which codified the prohibition of marriage between a widower and his sister-in-law. This restriction was rooted in the theological "one flesh" doctrine of affinity which legally equated a wife's sister with a blood sister. The controversy often dubbed the "annual blister" due to its near-yearly debate in Parliament highlighted a sharp class divide; while the wealthy could travel abroad to marry the working classes-who relied on sisters-in-law for domestic stability-were forced into "legalized concubinage." The debate permeated Victorian culture appearing in works ranging from Gilbert and Sullivan's Iolanthe to the novels of Dinah Craik. This edition captures the height of the Association's campaign which eventually succeeded with the passage of the Deceased Wife's Sister's Marriage Act in 1907.
