Tweedie Ethel Brilliana (w3145)
- Description: Ethel Brilliana Tweedie, who often signed her works as “Mrs. Alec Tweedie,” was a British travel writer, photographer, and feminist. In the late 19th century, when travel writing was still largely a male domain, Tweedie boldly ventured into remote and then little-known regions such as Finland, Norway, Iceland, and even colonial India. Her books—witty, vivid, and sometimes ironic—described landscapes, local customs, and personal adventures while also offering reflections on the role of women in society. She didn’t just observe; she participated, integrated, and documented, becoming a pioneer of female travel literature. She died in 1940, leaving behind a legacy of stories combining curiosity, courage, and social critique
