Gedanken zu "The Other Bennet Sister"?
Lohnt sich das? Ich habe immer geäußert, dass mehr in Mary stecken könnte & sie zu Unrecht so negativ dargestellt wird. Hat jemand das Buch gelesen? Fällt negatives Licht auf geliebte Charaktere oder entfaltet sich erstaunlich Schönes?

Catching up on “The Other Bennet Sister”, in which Mary plays the famous “Sarabande” by Handel.

Historically accurate, of course; Georg Friedrick had written about a century before Jane Austen’s time.

Perhaps needed to pass round a poisoned chalice… or is that Mr. Collins?

Jane Austen's Emma. Read aloud with the Mrs. Having seen the 90s and the recent film adaptations, I had a general idea of the story, but getting Austen's prose is of course far superior. Mrs Elton is as rude and insufferable in her proper regency presentation as ever. Mr Woodhouse's hypochondria never fails to elicit a chuckle.

Jane Austenin teosten kuvaama etiketti tuo turvaa sekavassa maailmassa | Maailma tarinoina

Jane Austen on noussut kulttihahmoksi, jonka teokset ja niistä tehdyt filmatisoinnit vetävät yhä uusia sukupolvia puoleensa. Tänä vuonna kirjailijan syntymästä tulee kuluneeksi 250 vuotta. Jo Austenin aikana menestynein teos oli Ylpeys ja ennakkoluulo, joka on vain yksi esimerkki vetävästä dialogista, rakkauden ja avioliiton kuvauksesta sekä luokan, perheen ja kodin keskeisestä roolista – sekä rivien välissä piilevästä ironiasta. Millaista on Austenin ajan deittailukulttuuri? Miksi hänen tuotantonsa voi nähdä lohtukirjallisuutena? Marja Vehkasen kanssa Austenin fiktiivistä maailmaa penkovat kirjallisuustieteilijä Heta Pyrhönen ja kääntäjä Kersti Juva. Jaksoa varten taustatietoja on tarjonnut Yle Draaman tuottaja Laura Jaakkola

After a harrowing semester (#teaching now is fraught with moral injury and grief), it’s
heartening to receive a thank-you letter from a student who took my senior seminar 2 years ago, has finished the summer reading I tongue-in-cheek assigned (to actually finish Mansfield Park, and think about the “dead” who live in the “dead silence” that meets questions about slavery), has moved on to all of #Austen, and is reading the anonymous novel The Woman of Colour from 1808. #Learning is best when slow.
