MISOGYNY

[Female suffrage; printed anti-feminist pamphlet.] Woman: And Her Failings.

Author: 
Henry Tyrrell [women's suffrage; Victorian feminism]
Publication details: 
London: Published by Holyoake & Co., 147, Fleet Street. 1857. [John Watts, Printer, 147, Fleet Street.]
£150.00

16pp., 8vo. In good condition, lightly-aged, no wraps, disbound. Tyrrell's attitude is patronising, to say the least. 'It is not that our girls and young women are uneducated; the mischief consists in the fatal fact that they are over-educated, as the word is understood, or misunderstood, by those who have the charge of them.

Publication details: 
[New York, 1870s.] Without printer or date.

31pp., 8vo. Drophead title. In good condition, lightly-aged, no wraps, disbound. Excessively scarce: two copies on COPAC (at Lambeth Palace and the London School of Economics) and only one more copy (apart from surrogates) on OCLC WorldCat, at the Ohio History Convention. This copy, like the two on COPAC, lacking the title leaf, which, according to the WorldCat entry, gives the place of publication as New York, and the full title as 'No female suffrage! Attila: theology, logic, anatomy, physiology and philology united, to establish the truism that the woman is no human being'.
