Collating 2 vi 440: bound without half title else complete including engraved title and eight plates designed by Angelica Kauffman a founding member of the Royal Academy of Arts. A surprisingly unfoxed and wider-margined copy than is typically found of this compilation of early educational works designed to help usher girls into adulthood.<br/><br/>"These sheets were penned by some of the most amiable and well informed subjects of these realms and intended as affectionate legacies of those noble and worthy persons to their amiable offspring for whom they had such tender regard.to point out whatever was desirable and just in forming and perfecting the virtues of the female character."  Thus John Hamilton brings together a series of 16 pieces on women's education and etiquette by authors including Dr. Gregory Lady Pennington the Marchioness of Lambert John Dryden and Lady Ann Bothwell. Using illustrations by a well-known female artist who was cutting edge in her own time as a founding member of the Royal Academy of Arts the Ladies Library was purposely suited and adapted for the use of the Female Sex" and for their parents who might want to guide girls into responsible and intelligent womanhood.<br/><br/>ESTC T88185.

175013363London: printed for C. Hitch in Paternoster-Row and R. Akenhead jun. at the Globe opposite the Bridge-End Coffee-House Newcastle 1750. Fifth edition. 6 149 1 ad pp. 1 vols. 12mo. Contemporary calf. neatly rebacked flyleaves removed some light browning or spotting mostly marginal ink date 1759 at foot of title page a few pen or pencil marks on title and in margins. Fifth edition. 6 149 1 ad pp. 1 vols. 12mo. First published in two editions in 1696 and reprinted in 1697 1721 and the present edition ca. 1750 with changing subtitles. Variously attributed to Mary Astell Judith Drake and H. Wyatt.<br/>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.<br/>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."<br/><br/>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."<br/><br/>RARE.
