- W2489588019 abstract "When Dr William Acton, the acknowledged authority of his age on prostitution, addressed the London Dialectical Society in 1868, he welcomed ‘the change of tone that had occurred since he first began to write on this subject’. Now, he said, it was discussed with ladies present, but twenty years before almost everyone shied off it; even Lord Shaftesbury, when approached on the matter, ‘had said that he knew little of it, and wished to know less.’1 The ’forties and ’fifties had seen a growing concern over ‘the Great Social Evil’, a greater willingness to discuss and attack it, and a corresponding decrease in tolerance for the men who, as customers, promoted it.2 This period saw also the establishment of many institutions and societies for reclaiming ‘penitent females’, and a surprising number of unlikely individuals made a hobby of addressing homilies to prostitutes on their beat, or of succouring them until they could be found an honest livelihood. Gladstone’s well-known activities in this field had been earnestly cogitated while he was still at Oxford in the ’thirties — a pleasant undergraduate tradition which we find surviving fifty years later, when G. Lowes Dickinson at Cambridge was asking freshmen for subscriptions for the same benevolent purpose — while in the ’fifties (to name one other instance) the young Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, scouring the streets for models, took in their stride the Rescue of the Fallen.3" @default.
