Title |
Discovering Lily Lewis: A Canadian Journalist and New Woman
|
Abstract |
Lily Lewis (1866-1929) of Montreal wrote under three pen names: "L.L.", the author of several articles that appeared in 1896 in the Toronto-based The Week; "Louis Lloyd", who wrote for The Week and the Montreal Daily Star between 1887 and 1891; and "Lily Lewis Rood", who wrote a monograph and some poetry and sketches in American and French journals until about 1896. Her hugely popular column, "Montreal Letter", was for some time a staple in The Week. She also accompanied fellow Montreal writer Sara Jeannette Duncan on a journey around the world that later became the subject of Duncan's fictional work (A Social Departure) in which Lewis was immortalized as the character "Orthodoeia Love". Lewis was diagnosed as insane and hospitalized in Britain for the last fifteen years of her life.
