Jane Austen’s Guide To 21st Century Dating

History Bombs is an “edutainment” troupe based out of England who produce “award-winning educational content to engage and inspire audiences of all ages.” While geared for educators and in the classroom, History Bombs have started a History Bombs show where they “interview” various famous peoples, living or dead. Their first is interviewee is Jane Austen! The video is quite fun as Jane strolls around London asking various people “What is good breeding?” and “Do you go to any balls?”

Check out the “interview” below!

Annnddd It’s back: The Jane Austen Summer Program 2019

Annnddd It’s back: The Jane Austen Summer Program 2019

Annnndddd it’s back!

Registration is now open for the 2019 Jane Austen Summer Program, which is to be held June 20 – 23, 2019 in Carrboro and Chapel Hill, North Carolina! The guest of honor this year is Soniah Kamal, the author of Unmarriagable, which it itself is published on January 19, 2019. (I have been waiting, it seems, for forever for this book! Ahem.)

This year’s theme is “Pride and Prejudice & Its Afterlives.” As with previous years, JASP has a reading list and a movie list to get you prepped for the symposium.  The tentative schedule is also up.  Don’t forget the Regency ball to cap off your experience! (I’ll hand it to the JASP organizers, they are on. it.)

Registration opened last week and the early bird pricing ($495) is open until January 15, 2019 and then the price goes up to $545. There are discounts available for K-12 student and teachers as well as UNC staff.

All of this information and more, including travel information, photos, and discussion guidelines can be found on JASP’s website. (I highly recommend to subscribe to their blog and Instagram because they are always publishing informative information on Austen and related things.)

Note: If you have attended or will be attending JASP, and you want to give it a review for the blog, please contact me!
