On 5 July 1911 Lucy Maud Montgomery married Ewen MacDonald in Park Corner, Prince Edward Island. Inspired by this anniversary, we are revisiting four titles that situate her writing in connection with either place, nature, or war.
Through innovative critical approaches, L.M. Montgomery and the Matter of Nature(s) opens up conversations about humans’ interactions with nature and the material environment.
“An emphasis on humanity’s interrelatedness with nature extends the significance of L.M. Montgomery and the Matter of Nature(s) past Montgomery studies and Canadian literary and cultural studies to engage with the larger issues of how humans’ interactions with nature shape our daily lives and the future of the planet.” Mary Jeanette Moran, Illinois State University
Reclaiming the place of a writer best known for depicting the lives of girls and women, as a groundbreaking writer about war.
“L.M. Montgomery and War is a delight to read. The use of biography, journals, and historical context is admirable. The writing is clear and engaging, always with an eye towards the general readership that Montgomery engages, and the range of issues evoked by a focus on war in Montgomery’s work is truly amazing and illuminating.” Holly Blackford, Rutgers University
A repositioning of L.M. Montgomery and her work within Ontario, where she spent almost half her life.
“L.M. Montgomery’s Rainbow Valleys is important because it resists Montgomery’s own obsessive returns to Prince Edward Island, as well as those of her readers and critics. The collection remains grounded in her Ontario experience, demonstrating its influence on all the writing she did in the second half of her life.” The Times Literary Supplement
New perspectives on the literary classic that enchants and engages readers across times and cultures.
“Anne around the World is a notable and memorable collection of essays which should become an important reference text in the academic field and an attractive read for general readers around the world who have an interest in L.M. Montgomery.” Joy Alexander, School of English, Queen’s University, Belfast
