It was super fun travelling to Bath to record the ‘roving reporter’ bit of this podcast on Sense & Sensibility over a head-sized bun in Sally Lunn’s 🖤
In the first episode of Jane Austen’s Paper Trail podcast, uncover Austen’s relationship with gossip, how surveillance played out during the time period and take a deeper dive into her first novel, Sense and Sensibility.

We approve of all the Ozymandias poems 🖤🖤🖤
This is just to say

I have looked on
the works
that were in
the desert

and which
you were probably
thinking
would still stand

Forgive me
they were trunkless
so vast
and so old
Once upon a desert sandy
As through winds the trav'ling man he
Spied the face of Ozymandy
Lying, simply lying there
Suddenly there was some writing
Pon the plinth that he was sighting
That the sand and time were blighting
Quoth the statue, "Now despair"

Drawing on V21 Collective's call to presentism as a pedagogical device, @drreznicek.bsky.social points to how moments of care in novels like Persuasion offer students a means of discussing the world as it is today, leading to a nuanced back & forth with @drbeard79.bsky.social.

I’m very happy that this book is finally out in the world. Get yourself a copy if you want to hear how one of the shortest forms relates to one of the longest, or if you’re interested in whether or how we learn from fiction!

My research into a review or advert for John Hartley's book Seets i' Blackpool has so far been fruitless, but I have found 3 seperate adverts of him talking about Veno's cough medicine... This might end up being the topic of my flash talk with @ehunineteen.bsky.social in December if all else fails 😂

Still pinching myself. Last night I talked about “Jane Austen, Her Writing and Her Craft” before a sold out crowd at Harewood House and enjoyed one last walk round of our exhibition Austen & Turner: A Country House Encounter. It was both wonderful and sad But all good things, as they say…

Shake your chains to earth like dew
