http://www.collectionscanada.ca/king/05320113/053201130409_e.html

Extractions: Jane Addams (1860-1935) Jane Addams, an American social worker and humanitarian, was born in Cedarville, Illinois. Her family was well-to-do and she received a good education. While travelling in Europe, she visited Toynbee Hall, an institution in London, England, which aimed at helping the poor through education, according to the philosophy of Arnold Toynbee. Addams was very impressed. In 1889, with her friend Ellen Gates Starr, she founded Hull House in the slums of Chicago. Based on the model of Toynbee Hall, Hull House offered help to the less fortunate by providing a kindergarten, library, lectures and clubs for all ages and a variety of interests. Addams was aided by many helpers, some paid workers and some volunteers, a number of whom lived at Hull House. Addams also worked for labour law reform, and was a founder of the National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People. She also campaigned for international peace. She was the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize (in 1931, jointly with Nicholas Murray Butler, President of Columbia University). Mackenzie King first met Jane Addams in 1895, when she was in Toronto speaking about Hull House. He was greatly inspired. "I never listened to an address which I more thoroughly enjoyed," he wrote. (Diary, July 20, 1895) The next day he spoke further with Miss Addams about her work, and wrote: "The history ..., taking it back to the influence and practical work of Arnold Toynbee was more than delightful to me." (Diary, July 21, 1895)

Jane Addams. 18601935 American social worker. Jane Addams was one of the firstpeople in America who sought to improve the lives of these desperate poor.
http://www.edwardsly.com/addamsj.htm

Extractions: Jane Addams was one of the first people in America who sought to improve the lives of these desperate poor. The Industrial Revolution took place in America in the years immediately following the Civil War. The boom of machines and manufacturing required a cheap and plentiful labor force around the same time millions of Europeans swarmed into American cities. By 1890, 80 percent of the people living in Chicago were immigrants or children of immigrants. Most cities, however, did not have the resources to handle such a rapid growth of people. Many immigrants were forced to settle in slums, living lives of poverty and hopelessness. Problems were only worsened by the fact that several different ethnic groups were huddled into one area. Jane Addams was one of the first people in America who sought to improve the lives of these desperate poor. In Chicago she founded a settlement house (community center) called Hull House. Her work toward social improvements in Chicago, coupled with the work of other reformers, marked the beginning of the Progressive movement in America. Reaching its height in the early twentieth century, this movement sought to overcome the often dehumanizing effects of rapid industrialization through a variety of political, economic, and social reforms. Later in her life, Addams focused her energies on international problems, becoming a dedicated leader in the peace movement. Addams was born in Cedarville, Illinois, only seven months before the start of the Civil War. Her mother died when she was two years old, and Addams was raised by her father, John Huy Addams. A successful businessman and politician, John Addams helped build Cedarville into a thriving community. He passed on to his daughter his belief in the ideals of hard work, achievement, democracy, and equality. He also imparted to Jane a high moral sense of responsibility and purpose, traits of his Quaker faith.

Extractions: Subjects: Abstract: This essay examines the little-known representation of female-female romantic and sexual relations in early nineteenth-century Urdu Rekhti poetry in north India. Rekhti Rekhti is obscene verse written for male titillation alone. I argue that its virtual disappearance from the canon is due not only to its homoerotic content but also to its nonjudgmental adoption of literary conventions and social customs drawn from non-Persianate and Hindu sources. After the politics of nationalist social reform led to the identification of Hindi with Hindus and Urdu with Muslims, these sources were denigrated as anti-Islamic. Mak, Geertje.

18981998 100 Years of Professional Social Work. Jane Addams 1860-1935. 100 Yearsof Social Work Portrayed by Elizabeth Hartley
http://www.socialworkers.org/profession/centennial/040598_addams.htm

Extractions: Portrayed by Elizabeth Hartley I am honored to open your commemorative celebration 100 years of professional social work. My name is Jane Addams. I am often called the "mother" of the social work profession. You know me. My life was a demonstration of the ethics and values that became the basis of this 100-year-old social work profession. My father, a state senator in Illinois, a Quaker and abolitionist, taught me what was right, just, and fair. I was educated in Philadelphia and Europe. In London, I visited Toynbee Hall, the first settlement house, and was inspired to bring this concept home to the United States. When Ellen Gates Star and I opened the doors to Hull-House we were determined to do things in a new and different way working to help people help themselves - preserving dignity. But Hull-House was more than clubs and classes. Ellen and I - and other Hull House residents, including Julia Lathrop, Florence Kelley, John Dewey, Alice Hamilton and Edith & Grace Abbott, "settled in" to the neighborhood - living among the people. We wanted to better understand the poor and wanted to change what we believed were gross and unjust differences in the opportunities between the rich - and the poor. Hull-House was a living room for the community, Hull-House worked, Hull-House inspired other settlements. And so the American Settlement House Movement was born.

In 1931 Miss Addams was co-winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, and characteristically enough she donated the prize money to the Women's Peace Party. She died in Chicago on May 21, 1935. At nearby Rockford Seminary, too it was not yet a college the air was heavy with a sense of responsibility moral, cultural, and even social. Here the girls, most of them deeply religious, encountered a strong missionary tradition, and here too a compelling sense of the obligation of women to prove themselves in what was still a man's world. It was all very Victorian: the passion for Culture, the passion for Good Works.
