9 The New Woman Carole Gerson Chapter 9 addresses the New Woman in two incarnations - as living author and as fictional character. Historical New Women abounded in Canada's relatively flexible social structure, proving their mettle as undaunted journalists and intrepid travelers, yet few such adventurers appeared in fiction by Canadian women and most of these characters suffered for their daring.
