"Jane Collier's An Essay on the Art of Ingeniously Tormenting 1753 a conduct book was her first work. The Essay operates as a satirical advice book on how to nag and it was modeled after Jonathan Swift's satirical essays. The work is intended to "teach" a reader the various methods for "teasing and mortifying" one's acquaintances. It is divided into two sections that are organized for "advice" to specific groups and it is followed by "General Rules" for all people to follow. / The Essay is modeled on Jonathan Swift's satire Instructions to Servants 1746 and even mentions Swift directly. However Collier reverses the roles in Swift's satire and instead writes from a servant's perspective in the first book. / To the master and mistresses the narrator claims that "you are no true lover of the noble game of Tormenting if a good dinner or any other convenience or enjoyment can give you half the pleasure as the teasing and mortifying a good industrious servant who has done her very best to please you." / To wives she tells them to "Be out of humour when your husband brings company home: be angry if he goes abroad without you; and troublesome if he takes you with him." When speaking to friends she argues that "injuries go nearest to us that we neither deserve nor expect." Added to the work are "General Rules for plaguing all your acquaintance; with the description of a party of pleasure" along with a "Conclusion" and "A Fable". As a general rule the narrator says "By all means avoid an evenness of behaviour. Be sometimes extremely glad to see people; and at other times let your behaviour be hardly within the rules of good breeding." / Betty Rizzo described the work as the "best-known generic satire written in the eighteenth century by a woman." The Battesins stated that Collier was "an author of wit and spirit". Some critics find it interesting that Collier would "yoke" Richardson with those that he "felt especial antipathy" with: Swift and Fielding. Katherine Craik claims the work as "a courageous social satire published at a time when satires were usually written by and for men.""3214045. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Good. Printed for A.

FIRST EDITION. 192 x 103 mm. 7 1/2 x 4 1/2". xv 1 lvii 1 59-360 pp. <br/> ORIGINAL PUBLISHER'S PAPER BOARDS paper label on spine edges untrimmed. Owner's signature of Robert Chichester dated 1827 on front pastedown. Text a shade less than bright because of inferior paper stock slight wear to the binding but AS FINE A COPY IN THE ORIGINAL BOARDS AS ONE COULD HOPE TO FIND the covers amazingly clean and smooth and with only the most minor faults internally.<br/> <br/> In its original remarkably well-preserved publisher's boards this work on education captures the spirit of reform abundant in the early 19th century including its warts. Although Spurzheim 1776-1832 was better known as an exponent of phrenology and an authority on mental illness than as an educational theorist his "View of the Elementary Principles of Education" is an important work that for the most part is sensible and progressive. Especially significant are his assertion that all influences from birth onward contribute to the physical and mental development of the child and the inference he draws from this that in addition to the conventional education of the intellect an optimal upbringing must include attention to such things as clean air proper diet and suitable exercise. He favors public education over private instruction because children will benefit by meeting a variety of people with "different manners of feeling and thinking." Spurzheim shows himself to be generally tolerant and forward thinking as he maintains that good education can improve almost anybody it would certainly reduce the number of criminals. But he sometimes disappoints as in his belief that many limitations are hereditary and must be taken into account in designing the most fitting education for an individual. He states for example that the poor ought to be prevented from reproducing as if poverty were in the genes. And in answering the claims of Mary Wollstonecraft's "Vindication of the Rights of Women" he says "I cannot perceive any arrangement of nature that can lead me to expect that women will cease to be considered as subordinate to men. Let them endeavor if they please to acquire the same degree of talent but till they have acquired it let them cherish order and exercise the virtues of their actual condition in society rather than attempt to rise into a sphere for which they are not at present fitted." Also appended here is a section on the treatment and reform of criminals in which the author calls for a better understanding of the causes of crime for the requiring of prisoners to undertake useful work and courses of instruction while in prison and for the study of the prison system instituted by William Penn at Philadelphia. While the sometimes disheartening contents approach a certain fascination it's the binding here that competes for--and perhaps wins--our attention. That its fragile construction could hold up so beautifully through two centuries of use is extraordinary. Printed for Arch[ibal]d Constable & Co.; London: Hurst, Robinson & Co unknown
