Autorenporträt
Emily Poynton Weaver (1865–1943) was a distinguished Canadian author, particularly noted for her contributions to the field of children's literature in the early 20th century. Her writing is characterized by a narrative style that sought to make the history of Canada accessible and engaging for younger readers. One of her most notable works, 'A Canadian History for Boys and Girls' (1900), remains an important example of her literary approach, which combined scrupulous historical details with an engaging storytelling technique. Born in Ontario, Weaver was the daughter of a reverend, a background that provided her with a strong moral compass reflected in her works. She strove to instill a sense of patriotism and national pride in her young readers, often emphasizing the heroic and adventurous aspects of Canadian history. Her books were unique for their time in that they offered a child-centric perspective on the nation's past. This, coupled with her fluid prose, made her an important figure in Canada's literary scene and contributed to the development of Canadian national identity. Weaver's contribution to literature extends beyond a single work, as she authored several other historical novels and textbooks that have educated and influenced generations of Canadians.
