A Legacy of Learning: Nurse Catherine Pine's Bequest of Her Suffragette Treasures (April 21, 2024)

  • Summary

  • This show is part interview/part philosophical discussion that focuses on the work and legacy of Nurse Catherine Pine (1864-1941). Joining us is Elizabeth Crawford, an authority on the British Suffrage Movement, who has written on Pine as well as earlier suffragists such as Milicent Fawcett (1847-1929) both in books and in Crawford’s blog “Woman and Her Sphere.” Crawford explains the research process by which she discovered that Pine’s Last Will and Testament contained a bequest of several suffragette treasures: books, photographs and a “suffragette medal””. We discuss the suffragette movement of which Nurse Pine was a part; and how Elizabeth Crawford’s research uncovered a mystery that has both philosophical and legal dimensions.
