The Jane Austen Society of the UK


Regional Talks to non-Society Members

One of the Jane Austen Society's main aims is to foster the appreciation and study of the life, works and times of Jane Austen and the Austen family. With this in mind, a new education initiative has been set up to offer structured talks on these subjects to interested groups around the country. Many of them are or will be illustrated, and will last from 45 to 75 minutes.

Currently there are 4 standard talks available:

Introducing Jane Austen and her novels (45 minutes)
Introducing Jane Austen and her novels (75 minutes)
Jane Austen and Marriage : Fact and Fiction (75 minutes)
Themes in Pride and Prejudice (60 minutes)


Further standard talks on the other novels will be available in due course.

The Society would hope to be able to provide a speaker in your area, and also to tailor a talk for the specific needs of your group.
