1841réf. 164511841. Catholic Girls' School Ugbrooke. Regulations for the Catholic Girls' School at Ugbrook 1841 a formal rule book documenting the provision and governance of Catholic education for girls from working and dependent families associated with the Ugbrooke estate in Devon. Founded in 1824 by Lady Clifford the school was principally financed by Lord Clifford with teachers reporting directly to him; surviving research indicates that tuition was effectively free for families unable to contribute and that Lord Clifford also provided medical attention and clothing for pupils. The 1841 regulations define this educational system more precisely stating that the school was intended "solely for the education of the female children" of present or former tenants servants and laborers of the Clifford family as well as tradesmen employed by the family. As such the pamphlet provides primary-source evidence for the study of girls' education Catholic schooling estate paternalism class and the institutional regulation of female childhood in early Victorian England. Catholic Girls' School Ugbrooke. Regulations for the Catholic Girls' School at Ugbrook. Chudleigh: J. E. Searle 1841. First edition. 8 2 pages. 8vo. The regulations were approved by the Right Reverend Vicar Apostolic of the Western District of England for the Catholic Girls' School at Ugbrooke Devon which was placed under the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph; the rules are dated March 25 1841. The pamphlet establishes who qualified for admission and records the formal ecclesiastical and estate framework governing the school demonstrating how educational access for girls was organized through relationships among the Catholic Church the Clifford household estate employees and their families. Ugbrooke itself had a particularly longstanding Catholic identity: the Clifford family's chapel was rededicated for Catholic worship in 1673 and Mass continued there through the period in which the girls' school operated. The regulations appeared well before universal elementary education in Britain and document a localized model in which girls from tenant servant laboring and tradesmen's families received schooling through the patronage of a Catholic landed family. The school's adoption of Joseph Lancaster's teaching system further places it within contemporary experiments in economical mass elementary instruction while its governance remained distinctly tied to the Clifford estate and Catholic religious authority. Earlier bibliographic cataloging located only two institutional copies at Emory University and the National Library of Australia although institutional holdings can change and this should not be treated as a definitive current census. No specific physical defects are supplied; overall very good. A focused primary source showing how class gender religion and estate patronage shaped access to formal education for girls in early Victorian Devon. unknown

Light chipping and soiling to wrappers. Contemporary notation to header of title else internally clean. Very good plus. An account of the second year of the activities of the New England Freedmen's Aid Society NEFAS an activist group formed to assist emancipated Black Americans in may aspects of life especially with gaining academic and practical educations following the Civil War. The present work is especially important for the long section titled "Condition of the Freedmen" which occupies pages 11 to 51 about half of the total work. This section details the population state of education labor and industry opportunities general condition and more of free African Americans in several regions of the country namely the Military Department of the South Key West and the Tortugas Military Department of Virginia and North Carolina the District of Columbia the Mississippi Valley Middle Tennessee Western Arkansas and Louisiana. Interestingly a substantial subsection of the section on the Department of the South is devoted to a discussion of arable lands available to freed slaves around Beaufort and Port Royal known to modern audiences as "Forty Acres and a Mule." Regarding the land in this area the report states that "It was a matter of course that the lands should all be taken for those blacks who did not wish to turn cultivators were perfectly aware that they could sell their 40 acres for many times the government price." The organization was also notable for its mission specifically aimed at education and for the critical role women played in its work. "The New England Freedmen's Aid Society was founded in Boston in 1862 in response to an appeal.on behalf of 8000 formerly enslaved people at Port Royal SC. Originally named the Educational Commission its mission was to provide teachers and other aid for 'the industrial social intellectual moral and religious' advantage of freedmen" Massachusetts Historical Society. As was the case with many abolition and aid groups women were in the vanguard of the NEFAS. They recruited trained and even served as educators in the program. For much of the twentieth century if historians wrote about the first teachers among freed people at all they characterized them as foolish even dangerous women.who bore a heavy responsibility for the racial tension after the Civil War and whose work caused Southern educators to avoid Black education" The Freedmen's Teacher Project. Yet scholars in the 1960s and after -- particularly women and Black researchers -- have returned to the documents of the Society to uncover the serious and often intersectional work being done by both white and Black activists in Port Royal reframing "the freedmen's education movement as not primarily a gift of northern largess.but as autonomous actions of hundreds of Black communities across the South demanding access to literacy and numeracy" The Freedmen's Teacher Project. In this sense those "dangerous" women were troubling because they heard the call of Black peoples took their needs seriously and reacted accordingly. The movement was thus "largely Black-inspired abetted by female missionary teachers" whose shared goals were to prepare "former slaves for lives of freedom in a democratic America" The Freedmen's Teacher Project. The present Annual Report shows the early efforts of this Society including fundraising allocation of funds educational programs and educational gains and future goals. Included in the list of Officers are eleven white women in leadership roles; indeed women were the majority in the Committee on Teachers and the Committee on Clothing and Supplies. Among them are more well-known activists who appear in American Abolitionists and Antislavery Activists i.e. Ednah Cheney and Sarah Barrett Cabot who had raised her daughter to become a leader in the movement. Most however are lesser or unknown denoted largely by their husbands' names rather than their own. Even less visible but even more important were the unlisted Black women who were members of the group and contributors to the grassroots work. "Nearly one-fifth of the Northern teachers were Black.Black teachers were fifteen times more likely to give a few years of their lives to Southern Black education.the rest of the recruited teachers were native to the South; many had been enslaved while others were Southern free Black women and other men of color" The Freedmen's Teacher Project. The accomplishments in the report -- fundraising equipment educational gains -- can largely be attributed to their efforts. The report for the first year of the organization is exceedingly rare with only one example listed in OCLC; twelve copies of the present report appear in OCLC though no copies have appeared in modern auction records and no other copies are currently in trade. An important and scarce historical document preserving the accomplishments of a fairly short-lived intersectional activist group with vital reports on the activities of freed slaves throughout the southern part of the country.

TItle translates as The Grand Thresor, or Dispensary, and antidotary both general and special, or particular of remedies serving the health of the human body. [Originally] Presented in Latin and Now Translated into French and Enriched with Annotations & Notes ... With a Brief and Easy Method of Extracting Faculties From Purgative Medicines. Not in Caillet, Ferguson; Krivatsy 1259 (1609), Duveen, 613 (1609). Two volumes bound together, as issued, with separate title pages. Includes tables, charts and illustrations. One of the most prolific pharmacopoeia of his time, mixing medical prescriptions and alchemy. An important early 17th Century treatise in two parts, one dealing with alchemy and the other with pharmacopoeia; this French translation wasproduced by Jean Du Val, doctor of Issoudun. The work describes a number of pharmaceutical preparations: oils that beautify the face, potions to moisten the stomach, waters that warm the chest, cerates, scents, tablets. At the end a short and easy method "d'extraire les vertus et facultez des medicaments purgatifs et de separer les formes des metaux et mineraux (to extract the virtues and facilitate purgative drugs and to separate the forms of metals and minerals). The author, Johannes Jacob Wecker was a Swiss physician and philosopher. He worked as a doctor from 1566 and wrote a number of works about medicine, some of which were in both French and Latin. Doubtless fleeing accusations of sorcery, Wecker moved to Basel after having published Les Secrets de Wecker. For a number of years, he worked as a professor of logic at the local university. He published Antidotarum generale, a work about alchemy. His work is known for the elaborate bibliography on chemistry-alchemy. He also reported the first known case of diphallia.

Nous n’avons pu identifier l’auteur de ce volume. Inconnu de Barbier. Décrit par Conlon 69.157. Considérations politiques, économiques et morales sur l’Angleterre de 1769. Il y est souvent question du politicien John Wilkes, alors emprisonné.Exemplaire provenant de la bibliothèque du Marquis d’Aligre (ex-libris). Né à Paris en 1726 dans une famille qui compta deux chanceliers, Aligre fut nommé Président du Parlement en 1768. Il fit plusieurs fois des remontrances au roi contre les impôts et contre les opérations ministérielles subversives. En 1788, en présence de Necker, il lut un mémoire au roi dans lequel il pronostiquait les malheurs qui, selon lui, découleraient de la convocation des États-Généraux. N’ayant pas été écouté par le roi, d’Aligre démissionna du Parlement. Le jour de la prise de la Bastille il fut arrêté mais put s’échapper grâce à un de ses anciens domestiques. Il émigra à Londres où l’attendait une fortune placée dans une banque anglaise. Il mourut en 1798 à Brunswick, laissant une fortune colossale à ses deux enfants.La pièce de titre au dos de la reliure manque, petit trou de ver au dos.
