One of the Earliest Formal Debates on the Value of Education for Women Concludes that Education is Necessary For All Women and Their Daughters

réf. 15274Women's Early Education. Report of the Commission Charged to examine memoirs relative to the education of women. Third Subject. - Morality. By Mr. Philis - Reporter. 1827. Paper boards. Folio size 13 in x 8.5 in. 68 pages of handwritten script in black ink. In this manuscript one of the earliest formal debates on the value of education for women the author radically concludes that formal education for women should be universally accessible: "We think that in whatever condition heaven has placed a woman" the author argues "from the daughter of the Prince to that of the most humble of the subjects there should be a similarity of ideas. When they are wisely explained the elements of Language and Calculations are they not necessary and indispensable to women in all stations" The author then reverses the very argument used against women's education-- that it is unnatural since motherhood is the only suitable destiny for women-- by arguing that education is exactly suited to "what nature formed women to be". "She knows she was created to fulfill duties and penetrated with a sense of those she has to perform she makes all she possesses of enlightened ideas talents and fortune concur in accomplishing them. This is what nature formed women to be and such a well directed education would make her. This is what would make a good mother of a family who would well know how to form daughters worthy of imitating her." Education in fact is as naturally suited to women as motherhood and ought to be the province of adult women and girls alike regardless of age or opportunity-- an ideal still worth fighting for even nearly two centuries later. It begins with a deceptively leading question: "What is the sort of education most suitable to Woman and the most proper to render them capable of fulfilling their destination as Mothers of families"Although the opening query is limited by modern standards formal education for many children-boys and girls alike-was not considered necessary in this period let alone for adult women with responsibilities in the home. The argument that education would serve women in their motherly duties was a crucial tool for advocates of womens' enfranchisement. The Commission judges three memoirs submitted on this topic and this forms the structure of the manuscript: "The Education Best Adapted to Form A Good Mother of A Family Is That Received at Home"; "It is Well Known That The Bad Education Of Women Does More Harm Than That of Men Because the Want of Good Conduct in Man Proceeds Frequently From The Education They Received From Their Mother ."; and "To Instruct the Children One Must Enlighten the Mothers". Thus the manuscript is valuable not only for its radical ideals but for its historical benefit as an overview of attitudes towards women's education at the turn of the 20th century. Just one year prior in 1826 the first public high schools were opened for girls in New York and Boston; it would be another 13 years until the first woman earned a college Bachelor's degree. Cover boards worn with light soiling and scattered stains. Even toning and light soiling throughout. Very good to good condition. unknown books

Original maroon boards. 142 pages first 97 pages filled with handwriting in pencil. All experiments dated 1903. "to be pasted on outside cover of note book. Borough of Manhattan New York City Wadleigh High School January 12 1904. This notebook contains the original notes of Sylvia DeGiorgio on laboratory work done under my immediate supervision. All numerical data and all notes descriptive of apparatus process and resulting phenomena were written in the laboratory at the time when the experiment was performed. Florence Hermann Teacher." Records 38 experiments that explore different topics in physical science such as: Verify the Law of Flotation Prove that a lever acts as if its mass were collected at one point Determine the mechanical advantages and law of inclined plane and Determine chemical action in a simple voltaic cell. Experiments contain tables to record data and observations with 30 scientific hand drawings in pencil to accompany lab notes. "I placed a 100g weight in such a position as that it would not roll and on it placed a meter stick and balanced it. I placed a 50g weight on the 17 cm mark and determined where a 20g weight should be applied to balance it. I then calculated the distance of 50 g or Force A from the fulcrum and also of 20g on Force B by subtracting the distance fo the position of A from the fulcrum and of B from the fulcrum. Then I multiplied the weight or magnitude of A by the calculated distance of A from the fulcrum and of B likewise the product was the moment of the force and the products of A and B should equal. I performed the same operation tree other times each time placing the weight-at different points on the stick. The movements of the forces acting on one part of the lever should equal the movement of the forces acting on another part of the lever." Wadleigh High School was first founded in 1897 when secondary education for girls especially immigrants was considered highly novel; this important school led the way for other educational reforms in the country and also led to more job opportunities for women to work as higher level teachers. This student Sylvia DeGiorgio was from an immigrant family with several members born abroad in Italy Malta and Egypt and the school took pride in both the academic as well as social education it provided to its girls students taking pride in the "gentlewomen" who graduated from the school. 2 loose pages recount the births and deaths of family members.

Variously attributed to Mary Astell Judith Drake and H. Wyatt. The present edition includes an ad for The Universal Library kept by Newcastle bookseller R. Akenhead jun. The date is conjectured from the R. Akenhead junior imprint which surfaces briefly in two other works dated 1750. A curious note on the verso of the dedication explains the lack of a subscriber's list. Apparently most of the "generous Encouragers" did not want to have their names included so "no List is printed lest Offence might be given." The author observes: "we are taught only our Mother-Tongue or perhaps French which is now very fashionable and almost as familiar amongst Women of Quality as Men; whereas the other Sex by means of a more extensive Education to the Knowledge of the Roman and Greek Languages have a vaster Field for their Imaginations to rove in and their Capacities thereby enlarged."
