L.M. Montgomery and War

Montreal, McGill-Queen's University Press. 2017, ARC/Advance Reading Copy. (ISBN: 0773549811) Soft cover. Book, War marked L.M. Montgomery's personal life and writing. As an eleven-year-old, she experienced the suspense of waiting months for news about her father, who fought during the North-West Resistance of 1885. During the First World War, she actively led women's war efforts in her community, while suffering anguish at the horrors taking place overseas. Through her novels, Montgomery engages directly with the global conflicts of her time, from the North-West Resistance to the Second World War. Given the influence of her wartime writing on Canada's cultural memories, L.M. Montgomery and War restores Montgomery to her rightful place as a major war writer. Reassessing Montgomery's position in the canon of war literature, contributors to this volume explore three central themes in their essays: her writing in the context of contemporaneous Canadian novelists, artists, and poets; questions about her conceptions of gender identity, war work, and nationalism across enemy lines; and the themes of hurt and healing in her interwar works. Drawing on new perspectives from war studies, literary studies, historical studies, gender studies, and visual art, L.M. Montgomery and War explores new ways to consider the iconic Canadian writer and her work. 258p. Bibliography. Publisher's publicity sheet laid in. Very Good+.

After Green Gables : L.M. Montgomery's Letters to Ephraim Weber, 1916-1941

Toronto, University of Toronto Press. 2006, 1st Can Ed. (ISBN: 0802036074) Hardcover. Book, " Ephraim Weber (1870-1956) was a struggling young writer when he began corresponding with L.M. Montgomery (1874-1942) in 1902, six years before she published her first novel. Webers initial letter was that of an admirer. Montgomery responded warmly, and the two quickly began a correspondence that became an intellectual mainstay for both of them over the following forty years. After Green Gables is a fascinating collection of letters sent by Montgomery to Weber between 1916 and 1941. This was the period of Montgomerys greatest literary success, but privately she was deeply troubled by her unhappy marriage. The letters, revealing an intense social and intellectual dynamic between Montgomery and Weber, cover, among other subjects, their strong differences of opinion on matters such as pacifism and war and their joint rejection of the effects of literary modernism. Drawing on Webers voluminous correspondence with other Canadian figures ,particularly journalist Wilfred Eggleston, editors Paul Tiessen and Hildi Froese Tiessen skilfully illuminate Webers interaction with Montgomery, especially in matters concerning literature and culture, religion and politics, and education and entertainment. The editors provide various readings of Weber, based on his aspirations as a writer, his active participation in the Canadian culture of his day (including his friendships with hometown schoolmate William Lyon Mackenzie King and community leader Leslie Staebler), and his heritage as a Mennonite. After Green Gables brings to life a distinctly Canadian literary and intellectual association of writers. Montgomerys letters to a man committed to writing and to the cultural development of Canada reveal her intellectual preoccupations and her personal hardships. This is an essential text for Montgomery fans and scholars as well as readers with an interest in the development of Canadas literary culture. (Paul Tiessen is a professor in the Department of English and Film Studies at Wilfrid Laurier University. Hildi Froese Tiessen is an associate professor in the Department of English and the Institute of Peace and Conflict Studies at Conrad Grebel University College, University of Waterloo.) 320p. bibliography. index Review copy sheet laid in.
