Book excerpt: Excerpt from Petticoat Government, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel About a quarter of a century ago there resided in a cathedral town, which we will distinguish by the name of Westhampton - chiefly because we know of no town so called - a very respectable family of the name of Jenkyns. They lived in a house which, though not in the close, was very near it, and which, better still, was built very much in the same handsome, substantial style as the prebendal houses.

Even in cases where none of those powerful passions are concerned which, while they make an essential 'part of the mystical Sublimity of man, give him, as Goody Grout says of her grand-children, more trouble than all his money, even in cases where these meddling agents have nothing to do with the matter, we are very often very far from' being amiable.

Book excerpt: The voice, that of a man still in the prime of life, but already raucous in its tone, thickened through constant mirthless laughter, rendered querulous too from long vigils kept at the shrine of pleasure, rose above the incessant babel of women's chatter, the din of silver, china and glasses passing to and fro. "Your commands, sire?" M. le Duc d'Aumont, Marshal of France, prime and sole responsible Minister of Louis the Well-beloved, leant slightly forward, with elbows resting on the table, and delicate hands, with fingers interlaced, white and carefully tended as those of a pretty woman, supporting his round and somewhat fleshy chin. A handsome man M. le Duc, still on the right side of fifty, courtly and pleasant-mannered to all. Has not Boucher immortalized the good-natured, rather weak face, with that perpetual smile of unruffled amiability forever lurking round the corners of the full-lipped mouth? "Your commands, sire?" His eyes-gray and prominent-roamed with a rapid movement of enquiry from the face of the king to that of a young man with fair, curly hair, worn free from powder, and eyes restless and blue, which stared moodily into a goblet full of wine. There was a momentary silence in the vast and magnificent dining hall, that sudden hush which-so the superstitious aver-descends three times on every assembly, however gay, however brilliant or thoughtless: the hush which to the imaginative mind suggests the flutter of unseen wings.
Download or read book Petticoats and Prejudice Women s Press Classics written by Constance Backhouse and published by Canadian Scholars’ Press. This book was released on 2015-02-01 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on historical records of women’s varying experiences as litigants, accused criminals, or witnesses, this book offers critical insight into women’s legal status in nineteenth-century Canada. In an effort to recover the social and political conditions under which women lobbied, rebelled, and in some cases influenced change, Petticoats and Prejudice weaves together forgotten stories of achievement and defeat in the Canadian legal system. Expanding the concept of “heroism” beyond its traditional limitations, this text gives life to some of Canada’s lost heroines. Euphemia Rabbitt, who resisted an attempted rape, and Clara Brett Martin, who valiantly secured entry into the all-male legal profession, were admired by their contemporaries for their successful pursuits of justice. But Ellen Rogers, a prostitute who believed all women should be legally protected against sexual assault, and Nellie Armstrong, a battered wife and mother who sought child custody, were ostracized for their ideas and demands. Well aware of the limitations placed upon women advocating for reform in a patriarchal legal system, Constance Backhouse recreates vivid and textured snapshots of these and other women’s courageous struggles against gender discrimination and oppression. Employing social history to illuminate the reproductive, sexual, racial, and occupational inequalities that continue to shape women’s encounters with the law, Petticoats and Prejudice is an essential entry point into the gendered treatment of feminized bodies in Canadian legal institutions. This book was co-published with The Osgoode Society for Canadian Legal History.
