Future utopia by this eccentric Ohio physician and philosopher whose mostly self-published works ranged from Lost Race fiction to straightforward medical treatises including The Epitome of Ambulent Proctology 1925 and Office Practice for the General Practician 1934. In the current work Blanchard writing in the voice of a woman librarian looking back from 22nd century America envisions a future world made perfect through collectivization land reform the emancipation of women and - sigh - as in so many technological utopias of the period Eugenics: ".Can you imagine a greater folly than asylums and prisons.making more and more criminals more unfits and misfits being born each year then burdening society with their care and support When Altruism gained power we blotted out those hopelessly unfit to live.we removed the cause of crime and purged the nation of its defective taint." Such "blotting out" was a common dream among a certain class of pre-war scientists and physicians turned into a horrifying reality by the Third Reich. An uncommon work especially so in the dust jacket which is rarely seen. HANNA 362. NEGLEY 116. SARGENT p.98. Medical Success Press unknown books
1913ref. 85169Chicago: O. M. Heath & Co 1913. First Edition. First printing. Octavo 19cm. Purple ribbed cloth spine and cover titles in gilt; 3031pp; portrait frontispiece and five unnumbered leaves of photographic plates halftones. A tight clean copy free of markings with just a hint of sunning to spine cloth; very Near Fine. A collection of six short tales each intended to illustrate a different aspect of "the prevalence of degeneracy in the modern era" jacket. Composts of Tradition was self-published and marketed aggressively in contemporary periodicals including The Masses and Pearson's; one such advertisement in the January 1915 issue of Pearson's outlines the book's intention: "It is not a book for prudes either male or female. It is a book for aggressive and advanced thinkers. Among other doctrines it advocates: 1 Sterilization of physical social and mental defectives; 2 Annihilation of the stigma attached to the bar-sinister; 3 Encouragement of reproduction upon the part of the fit; 4 Maintenance of all children by society; 5 Monogamy but marriage ceremonies to be optional not obligatory; 6 Divorce by collusion." At least one of the stories "Maid of the Neptunian Strand" has fantasy elements. Oscar Morrill Heath c.1872-1952 was a Chicago secondary school teacher and lecturer-for-hire on social subjects; beginning about 1905 through at least the 1920s we lose sight of him around 1930 he was the proprietor of a Chicago correspondence school for schoolteachers The Cultural Review School through whose auspices he issued a few ephemeral publications as well as a monthly magazine Teaching As A Profession. Additionally thanks to the trade card mounted in the front we know that Heath was the proprietor of at least two Chicago beauty parlors. From contemporary newspaper acccounts it appears that the current work landed Heath at least temporarily in hot water; the Chicago Tribune for November 6 1913 includes an article stating that Heath's status as an instructor at Englewood High School was "under review" pending publication of a book that was "critical of the nuptial bond" and seemed to condone childbirth out of wedlock. It is quite possible that Heath lost his position over the book as in subsequent years we find him advertising his services as a freelance instructor in a variety of topics including a review course in math for candidates to Army Officers' Candidate School during WW1. Despite its fetching title the current work is somewhat uncommon with fewer than 20 locations in OCLC most apparently in circulating collections. SMITH H-442.

1939ref. 794381939. The Lost English Translation of the 'Citizen of the Americas' on Constitutional Theory Manuscript. Hostos Eugenia Maria de 1839-1903. Hunt Albert. Francis. Jr. 1872-1947 Translator. Constitutional Science: Being the English Version of a Work Entitled "Lecciones De Derecho Constitucional" by Eugenio M. de Hostas. Nahant Massachusetts and Mt. Holly Springs Pennsylvania May 16 1939. 2 volumes. i 229; i 258 ff. Folio 11" x 7-3/4". Typescript bound in stiff textured paper covers with metal brads. Rubbing and light wear to extremities moderate toning to interior light foxing to a few leaves first two leaves of Vol. I loosening. Manuscript corrections additions and redactions in ink and pencil to several leaves in each volume. $2500. An extraordinary and apparently unpublished English translation of the 1887 masterpiece by the "Citizen of the Americas" Eugenio Maria de Hostos. While Hostos is widely celebrated as a pioneer of sociology and pedagogy his Lecciones represents his most rigorous contribution to legal theory synthesizing the development of global constitutional law. In this work Hostos performs a sophisticated comparative analysis utilizing American foundations citing The Federalist Story's Commentaries and the Declaration of Independence to argue for the institutional development of Latin America. The translator Albert Francis Hunt Jr. was a New York University-trained attorney who established a practice in Puerto Rico by 1906 placing him at the epicenter of the island's legal transition following the Insular Cases. Hunt's deep immersion in this post-1898 landscape likely motivated his project to bridge the gap between Spanish civil law and American constitutionalism. In a 1939 centenary tribute Hunt explicitly compared Hostos to Emerson and Lincoln lamenting that his "timeless ideas" remained ignored by the English-speaking world. Despite Hunt's claims of translating other major works by Hostos such as Moral Social and Sociologia no such publications appear in the Library of Congress or major bibliographical databases. This manuscript stands as a vital primary source for the study of 20th- century Pan-Americanism and the intellectual effort to translate Latin American liberal thought for a North American audience. unknown books
