Title
Some Notes on the Montreal Literary Scene in the Mid-1820’s
Abstract
In the early 1820s, two new literary periodicals began publication in Montreal: the Canadian Magazine and Literary Repository, founded in 1823, and the Canadian Review and Literary and Historical Journal, founded in 1824. The author outlines the history of these two journals and the feuding of the individuals behind them: David Chisholme, editor of the Montreal Gazette, as well as the Canadian Magazine, and soon to be editor of both the Montreal Herald and the Canadian Review; Thomas A. Turner, owner and publisher of the Gazette; Edward Milford, proprietor of the Canadian Magazine; and A.J. Christie, Chisholme's successor at the Gazette and the Magazine.
