Paper wrappers. Condizione: Good+. Side-stapled pamphlet (18.3 x 12.4cm), pp. 23. Gentle edgewear and creasing, some foxing, staple rusty, with adjacent bleed, second staple removed, but pamphlet still tight. Else, clean and tidy. Rare both in the trade and research libraries. JiscLHD lists five holdings in British research libraries (BL, Bodleian, UoCardiff, LSE, & ManchesterMet), OCLC adds another four (IISH, NYPL, Huntington & Princeton). Good+ A pleasing copy of this rare, early pamphlet by Edith Ellis, the first of her lectures to be published; Edith and Havelock Ellis apparently spent their wedding eve preparing its proofs. Edith Mary Oldham Ellis (née Lees; 1861-1916), known professionally as Mrs Havelock Ellis, was a British author and lecturer embedded in the overlapping progressive circles of fin de siècle England. A 'New Woman', she was a feminist, socialist and vegetarian, an advocate of positive eugenics, and, briefly, secretary of The Fellowship of the New Life (a precursor to the Fabian Society). Through the Fellowship she met her future husband, the sexologist Havelock Ellis, as well as other leading figures, including William Morris (she later lectured at Kelmscott House) and Edward Carpenter, who remained a good friend. Ellis was gregarious and well-networked across radical groups, publishing and lecturing in the UK and US, with family ties to Manchester, where she spent her (deeply unhappy) early years. If known at all, however, Edith Ellis is likely best remembered for providing 'Case XXXI.Miss H., aged 30' in her husband's Sexual Inversion (1897). Yet, her own output was broad, comprising, alongside the pamphlets on contemporary social issues, collections of short stories (many set in Cornwall), essays on contemporary thinkers, and plays and novels, including her queer-inflected final novel, Love-Acre (1915).

Cloth. Condizione: Good. FIRST EDITION, INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR. 8vo, title page printed in red and black. Original green linen, paper label to spine, lettered in black, ruled in red. Gently rubbed, traces of paper label and a few marks to upper board. Edges foxed and browned. Endpapers heavily and unevenly browned, a few chips (former insect damage?), Anthony Charles Thomas' illustrated ex libris to front pastedown, inscribed by Ellis in sepia pen to ffep: "Harry Edmunds, from EMO Ellis, Xmas 1908". Foxed, else, clean and tidy. Good. JiscLHD locates four copies only (BL, Bodleian, CambridgeUL & NLS). Unusual. A robust, inscribed copy of the "considerably revised and in parts rewritten" and re-titled 1907 edition of Edith Ellis' most popular, protean and (inadvertently) persecuted novel about free love and female desire, set in Cornwall, with a pleasing Cornish provenance: from the collection of Charles Thomas (19282016), the eminent British historian and archaeologist, who was Professor of Cornish Studies at Exeter University. In its original iteration as Seaweed (1898), Ellis' first novel her own "sex bomb," as she discussed it in a letter to her friend Edward Carpenter was accidentally swept up in the furore and subsequent censorship for obscenity of her husband Havelock Ellis' Sexual Inversion (1897) and suppressed. The trial, and the potential for exposure as a queer woman, deeply affected Edith Ellis, who had provided 'Case XXXVI.Miss H., aged 30' for her husband's book. Seaweed, and Kit's Woman, are also significant for their subject matter, "which in many ways anticipates, and quite possibly inspired, D.H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover, another famously censored and suppressed book" (Wallace, 2008). Following her 1907 revisions, which toned down Kit's coarseness and removed a number of "erotically charged passages," Ellis would revise it again for the American market as Steve's Woman, "eliminating much of the Cornish dialect"; it also had a theatrical iteration as "a four-act play that received a special performance at the Court Theatre with Beryl Faber playing the leading role" (ibid). Finally, a popular, paperback edition of Kit's Woman was published posthumously in 1916, possibly to help clear the debts Ellis had left. Edith Mary Oldham Ellis (née Lees; 18611916), known professionally as Mrs Havelock Ellis, was an author and lecturer embedded in the overlapping progressive circles of fin de siècle England. A 'New Woman', she was a feminist and socialist, a one-time vegetarian and an advocate of eugenics, as well as, briefly, secretary of The Fellowship of the New Life (a precursor to the Fabian Society). Ellis was gregarious and well-networked across radical groups, publishing and lecturing in the UK and US, but with strong ties to Cornwall, where she farmed and made her home (the Ellises sought a different conjugal formation based on shared values and comradeship rather than sexual attraction; they had separate incomes and residences). Ellis bought a number of cottages at Carbis Bay and renovated them for tenants, alongside keeping animals on a free hold. As well as an invert, she described herself as: "a farmer, lodging-house keeper, novelist, dramatist, and observer." Jo-Ann Wallace (2008) 'The Very First Lady Chatterley? Mrs. Havelock Ellis's Seaweed,' English Literature in Transition, 1880-1920, 51: 2, pp. 123-137.
