Wikipedia. <br><br>CONDITION: Bound in full leather these editions are very worn with discoloration chipping cracking to hinges though boards are present and still fragilely attached and headcaps and several headbands are missing. Volume 3's headband is exposed. Bookworm tunneling is evidenced within the leather covers. Spine bears five raised bands stamped in worn gilt lettering lining and gilt-tooled decoration which shows signs of erosion and some inner binding is exposed at the spines. Endpapers are plain with leather erosion to the binding at the pastedowns. The textblock is "very good". Printed on laid paper pages have fairly-evenly toned but bear foxing some offsetting occasional dampstains and discoloration throughout. Some occasional marginalia is seen particularly within the front and back endpapers and presumably from the period. A number of pages have been crinkled and creased at the edges also mainly within the front and back pages. Several minor dark mold dotting at the front corners of Volume 2's first several pages amidst a dampstain along with several tears throughout. All edges show toning scratching and discoloration. Even as these editions are only in "fair" condition with many flaws the text remains completely legible and easily readable and the vintage 1800's-feel is palpable and even distinguished. <br><br>Due to the size and weight of these volumes at nearly 10 lbs. additional postage may be required. Additional photos available upon request. Full refund if not satisfied. Printed for the Author and Sold by G. Whitfield, City Road hardcover

1894124133Oxford: printed for the Association by the Printers to the University 6 issues with the imprint of Horace Hart; the last 5 with that of Frederick Hall 1894-1919. The state of women's education in Oxford at the height of the suffragette agitation An important set of reports published by the pioneering Association for Promoting the Higher Education of Women AEW containing a mass of information relating to the state of women's education in Oxford at the height of the suffragette agitation. The earliest report dates from 1894-95 and the latest from 1918-19 each running from October of one year to the same month of the next. The sequence is incomplete with two issues missing 1900-01 and 1910-11. The reports are scarce in any sequence. WorldCat and Library Hub record runs at the London School of Economics and the British Library. The society's papers and publications are held in the Bodleian deposited there in 1975. The question of women's suffrage and its relevance within the structures of the University of Oxford had been a topic of frequent discussion prior to the formal debate on the subject at the Oxford Union on 19 February 1880. Societies like the Oxford Women's Liberal Association OWLA and the Women's Emancipation Union plus the activism of Florence Davenport Hill who had been a founder member of the Bristol Women's Suffrage society in 1868 and had since moved to Headington paved the way for groups like the AEW and later the Oxford Women's Suffrage Society. The organization's work led to the founding of four women's colleges: Lady Margaret Hall and Somerville opened in 1879 followed by St Hugh's in 1886 and St Hilda's in 1893. St Anne's also originated as part of the AEW catering for female students who lived with private families in Oxford while attending courses run by the society. The AEW counted the activist Eleanor Smith 1823-1896 among its founding members and Annie Rogers 1856-1937 Oxford's first woman don as a secretary. Perhaps the most significant sections in these reports are those titled "General Statistics" which provide accounts of lectures attended by students tutorial arrangements results of examinations donations and subscriptions. The report of 1917-18 also provides a commentary on the "extension of the University Parliamentary Franchise to women who being British subjects and not subject to any legal incapacity have attained the age of thirty and have been admitted to and passed the final examination and kept under the conditions required of women by the University the period of residence necessary for a man to obtain a degree at Oxford. They are registered on specially favourable terms as the Act admitting them is so drafted that the fee of £1 for registration cannot be required of persons who are not graduates. The Register contains at present the names of 409 women." The AEW continued its activities until November 1920 when it dissolved itself as the university by admitting women to membership had taken responsibility for them. 23 issues octavo; comprising a total of 616 pages the issues c.20-30 pp. in length. Original printed paper wrappers sewn and wire-stitched as issued. Housed in a former library's dark purple cloth flat-back box with metal latch closure paper label to spine reading "Australian Council for Educational Research".
