Out of Place: Living in Wentworth's World
In his groundbreaking television series The Day the Universe Changed, James Burke asserted that the modern world finds its raison d'etre in a nearly three millennia-old philosophy: binaries. By this he meant up/down, good/evil, hot/cold, and right/wrong.
So, too, did Jane Austen treat her world: Pemberley/Longbourn, Elizabeth/Darcy, Anne/Wentworth, and Mrs. Bennet/Mr. Bennet. While these may have a Read more of this blog post »

“The growing social consciousness of the Industrial Revolution (1750-1850) can be found throughout the Austen Universe. While the Lady wrote about the gentry, she, none-the-less, was speaking to the human condition. Class is an imaginary distinction conferring no better manners on the “haves” and no lesser nobility on the “have-nots” and that the deepest human emotions are universal.”

“Of all the events leading up to the departure for the shore, though, was one that had been months in the making. The two souls in question had been united at first through their mutual love for a lost woman. They soon discovered that she was but the medium through which the universe once again exercised its peculiar ability to match those destined to be so linked." The Exile (2017)”
