185838683Bristol: Printed by Isaac Arrowsmith 1858. First edition. Stapled paper wrappers. Good copies; chipped wrappers one nearly detached contents clean. 20 pp.; 24 pp. 16mo. Mary Carpenter 1807-1877 "was the leading female advocate of deprived and delinquent children in mid-nineteenth-century England and one of the first philanthropists to see the need to provide special facilities for their care. Her child-centred philosophy can be detected in remedial institutions and legislation from the 1850s onwards. As a writer she was maternal though unsentimental. As an administrator she was systematic and persuasive. Despite social indifference and conflicts with officialdom her record of achievement would have been the envy of many contemporary male reformers. she took the initiative in Bristol where she founded a school at Kingswood in 1852 and a separate reformatory school for girls at the Red Lodge in Park Row in 1854. Meanwhile she gave evidence before a parliamentary inquiry on juvenile delinquency 1852 and wrote Juvenile Delinquents their Condition and Treatment 1853. Her testimony writings and practical effort did much to bring pressure to bear on parliament to recognize a need for reform. The Youthful Offenders Act of 1854 'the Magna Carta of the neglected child' owed much to her influence. It authorized the establishment of reformatory schools by voluntary bodies certified by the state and partly funded by the Treasury. Though imperfectly enforced the act represented a major change in penal policy and established a pattern of relations between statutory and voluntary bodies that would serve as a model for the future" Frank Prochaska 'Carpenter Mary 1807-1877' Oxford Dictionary of National Biography.
