Octavo; self-wrappers unopened. 16pp. Toning and creasing to edges with a few minor nicks; about Very Good. The New England Female Moral Reform Society's stated goal was the "prevention of licentiousness" prostitution the moral double standard regarding both and protecting young women from the "unprincipled destroyer who seduce and ruin the unsuspecting." Indeed this issue devotes a section to "Street Beggars" who are imposters attempting to lead astray the young and unsuspecting. The paper continues in telling the story of two young women who were led to "a house of ill fame" by one such imposter and were saved from a member of the society and thus saved "from this sink of iniquity. from her 'whose house is the way to hell going down to the chambers of death.'" Also of note here is the ongoing "Letters to Sarah E. Grimke" portion of this publication which runs several pages in this issue gently arguing several points regarding the role of women in society. The letter concludes with a post script that the author has just received Grimke's pamphlet "Equality of the Sexes" acknowledges her sincere obligations and urges everyone who reads this publication to also read Grimke's.

1706Best.-Nr. 87605Nürnberg: Joh. Leonhard Buggel 1706. Second edition. First published 1701; reissued by the same publisher under revised title in 1718. 12mo 125cm. 19th-c. mottled calf over marbled boards; gilt spine title; 123146pp; engraved extra-title. Pressure-stamp of a 20th-century owner to base of title page David B. Dickens. Two small ink-spots to the engraved extra-title; mild age-darkening to text but overall a very clean and attractive copy. Very Good. Text entirely in German. Uncommon collection of brief parables and humorous vignettes each intended to illustrate a particular virtue vice or crime - Rejuvenation Kindness Friendship Industry; Superstition Jealousy Fratricide Adultery etc - built around the author's conceit of a book organized as a pleasure-garden wherein "Just as a garden lover tired from office business and worries is refreshed again and.comes alive when he strolls around in his sweet-smelling flower field picking a little flower here and there.so a person recovers his spirits when he occasionally devotes an hour to reading various moral stories picking their morals as he would flowers and fruits and applying their beneficial use." from the author's Foreword; translation ours. Apparently the only published work by Caspar Blanckard to whom we can find no reference beyond his authorship of the current work. Very scarce; OCLC and KVK find only three physical locations for any edition; we note another apparently unindexed copy in the Harold Jantz Collection of at Duke University. This copy from the collection of David B. Dickens long-time professor of German Language and Literature at Washington & Lee University. Joh. Leonhard Buggel unknown books
