A very good copy in a later binding of a rather unwieldy work.<br /> <br /> A later printing of Wade's incendiary 1820 catalog of abuses performed by the Church The King the Government and various business interests against the people security and progress of Great Britain. A continued bestseller demonstrating a fervent appetite on the part of the British public to read Wade's excoriating denunciation of the upper classes and their merely wealthy counterparts. On a number of fronts this public airing of secretly dirty laundry met with some political and social success and led to some very public gestures at reform. Effingham Wilson unknown
189243449Chicago: Bloch 1892. paperback. 1st edition original printed green paper wrappers 8vo. 49 pages. Singerman 4345. <br> <br> Rabbi Emil G. Hirsch 1851-1923 "who headed Chicago's Sinai Congregation for forty-two years and led Reform Judaism into the Progressive movement and down social justice pathways was born in Luxemburg.<br> One of several Jews involved in founding the NAACP Hirsch was married to the daughter of abolitionist rabbi David Einhorn and served in his father-in-law's former pulpit in Baltimore before moving to Louisville Kentucky and then Chicago. He was professor of rabbinical literature and philosophy at the University of Chicago in 1892 active in the Republican Party and editor of several influential Jewish publications" Lawrence Bush in Jewish Currents<br> "Hirsch and his congregants struggled to come to terms with the large number of Jewish immigrants who moved to Chicago after 1880 boosting the Jewish community from about 10000 in 1880 to over 300000 in 1920.For the established Jews represented by Sinai the Jewish 'Ghetto' - the immigrant neighborhood on the city's West Side - appeared to represent a world apart and a sharp contrast to Sinai's radical and inclusive reform agenda: a highly visible expression of Jewish ethnicity and traditional Judaism which Reform Jews associated with isolation discrimination and exclusion." <br> Nevertheless during the 1890s "Hirsch spoke up against the deplorable condition of Jews in the Russian Empire and reached out to West Side residents. His support for workers' rights also won him much support among Jewish immigrants who overwhelmingly belonged to the working class.<br> "Hirsch worked closely with Jane Addams and other members of the Hull House circle. In 1908 Hirsch and Addams were among the co-founders of the NAACP. Hirsch inspired several members of Sinai congregation: Sears and Roebuck president and philanthropist Julius Rosenwald was one of Hirsch's closest associates so was legal scholar Julian Mack who presided over a widely noted juvenile court in Chicago in the first decade of the 20th century. <br> Hannah Solomon was one of the founders of the organized Jewish women's movement in the United States. Joseph Schaffner and Harry Hart were the leading partner of the clothing manufacturer Hart Schaffner & Marx one of Chicago's largest employers. Influenced by Hirsch's social theology Schaffner and Hart settled with their workers during the 1910-1911 clothing strike recognizing their right to form a union" Tobias Brinkmann.<br> <br> SUBJECT S : Jesus Christ -- Jewish interpretation.

184728539Boston: Published by the Author 1847. Original printed wrappers stitched 32pp. Wrappers chipped repair to front wrap no text loss else Very Good.<br/><br/> An early scarce and unusual radical critique of American capitalism. Apologists for Negro slavery would echo this New England condemnation of the free labor system. The author says wage labor in America is "worse than things at the South."<br/> The League attributes "the evils which oppress and burden the men and women of New England" to "a vicious social organization." America is "but one remove from.the Feudal state. Labor and capital are in direct antagonism. Or rather that labor is passive while capital wages a ceaseless war a guerilla war at least upon it cutting off its resources whenever it is possible. Instead of standing upon an equal footing with capital and being able to treat with it upon an equal basis it stands in the market-place like a slave." The author and the League urge the "Organization of Labor and the Association of Laborers whereby they shall work for themselves and not for another and receive the Profits of their own Labor." <br/>Sabin 15187.

18343806Providence 1834. Good plus. Broadside 15 x 10.5 inches printed in three columns within an ornamental border. Old folds short splits along some folds a few small chips moderate dust-soiling and foxing. Untrimmed. A rare broadside disseminating a report from a five-man committee of the General Assembly of Rhode Island recommending penal code reform and the establishment of a state prison in the Ocean State in 1834. The beginning of the report expounds upon the inconsistency of the various legal punishments meted out in county jails. The committee then evaluates different methods of imprisonment in New York Pennsylvania Connecticut and other states concluding as follows: "On the whole the committee are in favor and recommend to the General Assembly the erection of a State penitentiary on the principle of solitary confinement at labor with instruction in labor in morals and religion." The committee hoped this prison reform would "relieve the State from the future support of convicts and may produce a moral reformation in those who may be subjected to its operation." We could locate just one copy of this broadside in OCLC at Brown. unknown
