Contributions from a number of recognized nineteenth-century women writers are represented in these pages, as outlined. ** CONDITION: Very Good overall, but INSIDE IS CLOSER TO FINE.

The mezzotints sing with deep rich tones. **AUTHOR HIGHLIGHTS include several poems by FRANCES SARGENT OSGOOD (1811-1850); she and EDGAR ALLAN POE famously exchanged romantic poetry, and she is buried at Boston's Mount Auburn Cemetery. Another Poe acquaintance was the Author Miss CATHERINE M. SEDGWICK, who was brought up in western Massachusetts in a family of lawyers and judges (her father became Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Court.) She was a successful novelist in her own right, publishing 1824's "A New England Tale. Redwood, " a best seller. Her work was favorably compared to that of her contemporary James Fenimore Cooper. Poe described her appearance in detail in a column in Godey's Lady's Book of 1846 (Vol. 33, pp. 131-132) in a column titled "The Literati of New York City"."Her forehead is an unusually fine one, [the] nose of a slightly Roman curve; eyes dark and piercing; mouth well-formed and remarkably pleasant in its expression. The portrait in Graham's Magazine is by no means a likeness." Ms. Osgood was, then, being extensively written about in the main literary outlets of the day. She provides six selections here.**LYDIA MARIA CHILD (1802-1880), another influential Massachusetts author and editor, was also a first wave feminist known for her promotion of many causes considered "radical" in her day. Abolitionism, the rights of indigenous people, and women's suffrage were among her causes, and she also wrote a novel about interracial marriage in 1824. She and her husband also worked with Newburyport-born abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison's anti-slavery movement in Boston. [ See our related listing for "The History of the Condition of Women, in Various Ages and Nations," our no. 9258.] In this volume, LMC offers four selections: "Recollections of Ole Bull," "She Waits in the Spirit Land," "The Self-Conscious, and the Unconscious," and "The Neighbor-in-Law." **Newburyport's HANNAH FLAGG GOULD (1789-1865) is also represented in these pages with her poem, "The Empty Cradle." Gould was also a contemporary of Wm. Lloyd Garrison, writing for his anti-slavery newspaper, "The Liberator." [See our related listing 7250.] **ANNA BLACKWELL (1816-1900) Bristol, England-born, Author and Poet later associated with the Transcendentalists at Boston's Brook Farm, also provides a number of poems in this collection. Like Child, she is considered a first wave feminist and radical thinker in the areas of woman's rights and abolitionism. She was also a correspondent of some intimate variety with E.A. Poe. **Her sister, Miss ELIZABETH BLACKWELL, (1821-1910) provides a short story, "Lyndhurst" to this issue. She would famously go on to become the first trained woman medical doctor in the United States, beginning her medical studies the following year,1847, at Geneva Medical College in New York. Prior to that, however, she and her five sisters made ends meet after the death of their father instructing at a private school run with their mother in Cincinnati. A male contributor, James Kirk Paulding, forgoing credit with the byline,"By an Amateur," adds a spirited critique of midcentury spiritualism in "Panegyric on Witchcraft, Mesmerism and Cheap Literature." On LMC's "The Children of Mount Ida," see BAL 3155. Landseer, W.H. Bartlett, Zoffany et al (ilustrador). Book.…

75 pp. Boston's Children's Hospital was founded in 1869 as the second children's hospital in the U.S. This diverse collection of poetry and prose must have been an early fund raising effort for the Hospital. Several important literary lights of the time contributed to the small publication. Among the eight pieces included are "Nature and History in Europe" by E.H. Chapin, "Bane and Antidote" by E(dward). E(verett). Hale and "Hints Towards an Essay on Bothersome People" by J(ames).T(homas). Fields (of Ticknor & Fields). An interesting philanthropic endeavor.

Hard Cover. Condición: Very Good Minus. First Edition. Hard cover bound volume, 4to., in three-quarter black calf over dark green cloth, the spine tooled in gilt with extensive filigree design, title and date. Vol. III contains Jan.- June, 1845, (286pp.) bound with Vol. IV, July-Dec. 1845, (284pp.) and with the issue for Jan. 1846 (48pp.) also included. Each volume has a separate table of contents and the fashion plates, (some hand-colored,) chromolithographed extras and lithographed engravings, a few with tissue guards, plates unnumbered. **CONDITION: Very Good Minus, with small split to head and some wear to tail of joints, shelf wear near corners and a few small marks to boards. Hinges are intact with very small wear at rear hinge just starting. Over opened in at least one place. Offset affects pages opposite a number of the prints. Some browning and occasional bits of soiling. **This volume features contributions by significant women writers of the day. Five short stories are included from the Boston area-born abolitionist, journalist, novelist, women's and native American rights advocate, LYDIA MARIA CHILD (1802- 1880) including the first publication of "The Children of Mt. Ida." Based on elements of Greek myth, it is a tale of the ill-fated love of two foster children who grow up together in idyllic innocence on the Phrygian hills in the Aegean. Married, they remain unaware of a regal connection which will require an ultimate sacrifice. The Trojan Wars, the gods, and Helen of Troy, draw the hero away from his first love. Also interesting are the tones of mesmerism to be found in the story--then current in the works of Child's contemporary E.A. Poe, for instance--seen in the ritualized conjuring of a trance-like state in the heroine, enabling prophetic visions. This short story, as well as Child's "Elizabeth Wilson," The Youthful Emigrant," "A Legend of the Apostle John," "Hilda Silvering," "The Irish Heart," and "The Beloved Tune" appear here, and were then later published in book form: "Fact and Fiction: A Collection of Stories," (New York: C.S. Francis, 1846), BAL 3155. Interestingly, LMC dedicated that book to Anna Loring (1830-1896), a Beverly, Massachusetts woman and fellow abolitionist.**Boston poet FRANCES S. OSGOOD (1811-1850) is represented by five poems in Vol. III and at least three more in Vol. IV, including "The Sunbeam's Love," said to refer to her infatuation with the young fellow Bostonian author, Edgar Allan Poe. Poe penned poems in response, including "To F----s S. O---d," and another of 1846 entitled "To Her Whose Name Appears Below," featuring a cryptic anagram of Osgood's name spelled out in the text. These, however, did not appear in "The Columbian Lady's and Gentleman's Magazine." But Poe did contribute a short story, "Mesmeric Revelation" to "The Columbian" in 1844.**Other articles include a discussion of the work of poet Elizabeth Barrett (later Browning) by critic H.T. Tuckerman. Other notable contributions by women include Lydia H. Sigourney, Fanny Forrester and Maria Weston Chapman.**REF: On Poe and Mesmerism, see Poe Society, cf. "The Facts of the Case of M.
