Young Jane Austen and the First Canadian Novel: From Emily Montague to 'Amelia Webster' and Love and Freindship
|
Abstract |
Historians of Canadian literature often call Frances Brooke's The History of Emily Montague, published in 1769, the first Canadian novel. Though it was published in England and written by an Englishwoman, Frances Brooke (1724-1789) spent the years 1763 to 1768 in Quebec, and drew extensively on her experience there for her novel, the first half of which is vividly set in Lower Canada.
