Bibliography of Andrew Seth Pringle-Pattison (1856-1931)

From Acknowledgements:This is a first large-scale bibliography of the writings of Andrew Seth (from December 1898, Seth Pringle-Pattison). As this bibliography shows, he published a huge amount, most of it extremely interesting, little of it collected. Too much of it now lost in the mists of unread journals and book and so is wrongly neglected. Hopefully, this bibliography will enable scholars to recover more of his thought and significance

Fine press materials in Special Collections

A fine press is a printing establishment that adheres to particularly high standards in terms of the skill of the workers, the choice of materials, and the overall design of the books ultimately produced. As a consequence of these high standards, print runs -- i.e. the number of copies of a book that are printed -- tend to be very low. There is often, in addition, an emphasis on traditional printing technologies and techniques. The modern fine press movement is usually considered to have begun with the Kelmscott Press, established by William Morris in 1890-1891 as part of the broader Arts and Crafts movement. Morris founded his press in opposition to the ever-increasing mechanization of printing over the course of the 19th century, which Morris believed was accompanied by a decline in printing standards. The spirit of the fine press movement continues in the ongoing revival of the techniques of letterpress printing, but the movement itself is usually dated to the years 1891-1939. This finding aid concentrates on presses associated with the fine press movement itself, but also covers precursors to the movement. Presses founded after 1939 are excluded, with the exception of presses founded as continuations of earlier presses (for example, the Arion Press), presses founded by printers whose careers were well established by 1939 (for example, John Fass's Hammer Creek Press and Will Carter's Rampant Lions Press), and prominent Midwestern Presses (for example, the Stone Wall Press and the Perishable Press). Most of the presses listed are private presses -- i.e. independent presses set up more for artistic than financial purposes -- but some more commercial presses renowned for the quality of their work are also included. For each press, the books held by Special Collections that were printed at or published by that press are listed alphabetically by author, followed by any secondary resources held by Special Collections that relate specifically to that press. There is a separate page ("Other Resources") that lists secondary resources relating to the fine press movement as a whole.Scope and content note -- Conditions of use -- Collection details -- Precursors to the fine press.

Portia\u27s Deal

The New Deal, one of the greatest expansions of government in U.S. history, was a lawyers\u27 deal : it relied heavily on lawyers\u27 skills and reflected lawyers\u27 values. Was it exclusively a male lawyers\u27 deal ? This Essay argues that the New Deal offered important opportunities to women lawyers at a time when they were just beginning to graduate from law school in significant numbers. Agencies associated with social welfare policy, a traditionally maternalist enterprise, seem to have been particularly hospitable. Through these agencies, women lawyers helped to administer, interpret, and create the law of a new era. Using government records and archived personal papers, this Essay examines three under-studied women lawyers of the New Deal. Sue Shelton White, an outspoken feminist from Tennessee, came to the New Deal after a long career as a court reporter, political organizer, and senate staffer. Records of her time in government suggest the difference that gender, and specifically gendered opportunity structures, made to the work of a New Deal lawyer. Marie Remington Wing, a prominent politician and lawyer in her native Cleveland, joined the New Deal as the lead attorney in a regional office. Her biography encourages scholars to remember that just as the New Deal was national in scale, so too was its legal work. Regional outposts of the New Deal provided some women lawyers with a taste of the power that the men in Washington enjoyed. Bernice Lotwin Bernstein was in age, brains, and social networks the equivalent of one of Felix Frankfurter\u27s Happy Hotdogs. She joined the New Deal in 1933 and stayed for forty-five years, narrowly surviving a Cold War loyalty-security investigation. Her life offers a case study in the appeal, and the dangers, that government work held for women lawyers. Taken together, these three biographies suggest the need for sustained scholarly attention to the Portias of the New Deal
