Dear Janeites,
The September presentation and discussion will relate to the AGM theme: "Living in Jane Austen's World". Topics for discussion will cover "women's work" and looking for "hidden" clues about current events of the time that can be found in her novels.
We suggest reading a Jane Austen novel of your choice or an article in Persuasions or Regency World. There also books that inform you about every day life during the Georgian Times. The discussion will include questions and your examples that you found in your reading choice.
