“Miss Ferrier avowedly made thumb-nail sketches,—as is proved in one of the few surviving letters to or from her,—out of which grew the merciless caricatures that created her fame”
—an 1893 article in 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘈𝘵𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤 contrasting Sussan Ferrier & Jane Austen

“It is a truth universally acknowledged…”
Susan Ferrier’s 2nd novel 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 (1824) starts with a nod & wink to Jane Austen’s 𝘗𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘫𝘶𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘦 (1813). In 1818, Blackwood’s paid £150 for 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘨𝘦; it is a testament to Ferrier’s popularity that they paid £1000 for 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦

Susan Ferrier (1782–1854) was born #OTD, 7 Sept. Her 3 novels – 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘨𝘦, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦, & 𝘋𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘺 – are vivid & humorous accounts of Scottish society. Often compared to her contemporary Jane Austen, Ferrier’s satires are much more vicious…

Went to a "Theatre walk", where the audience walked with the performers across our museum village to all locations where the acts took place. Real horses involved too. Incredibly well done performance of "pride & prejudice" by a group of young people. #JaneAusten #theatre #adolescents

Meine ersten Erfahrungen mit Jane-Austen-Romanen machte ich mit dem Reclam-Verlag und so mit der Übersetzung der Grawes.
Bei meiner Beschäftigung mit ein paar Einzelfragen sind mir Sachen aufgefallen, die ich nicht so toll finde – eine davon habe ich jetzt als Blogartikel verarbeitet:

It’s Weekend, Let’s Read: Who is the author with more works in the Guardian’s list of 100 greatest novels of all time?
The Guardian made a list of the 100 greatest novels of all time. You can see the list here, with links to how Guardian’s made it. First place of the list is George Eliot with Middlemarch, but I thought to check which authors had more works in this list. And it’s Virginia Woolf with five books!
Second place in the number of the novels in the list are Jane Austen and Charles Dickens, both with four books.
Best part? There all in public domain, so you want to start with any of these four authors, right here, right now, head to Project Gutenberg and let’s read!
Books by George Eliot – https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/90
Books by Virginia Woolf – https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/89
Books by Jane Austen – https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/68
Books by Charles Dickens – https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/37

My first post here was 10 days ago, & the very first reply sent me down a fascinating #RabbitHole
🕳️ 🐇 to a #Britain in which #Tories push for a fairer society with a #MinimumWage & expanded #WelfareBenefits, & our most beloved novelist skewers their opponents. Relevant holiday reading?Here's the conversation, long 🧵 - what an intro to #Fediverse!

@Tony_Meredith Thanks for drawing my attention to the relevance of #PrideAndPrejudice to #UKpolitics today. 225 years ago #Britain had a #Tory #PrimeMinister pushing for a fairer society with a #LivingIncome & an expansion of #WelfareBenefits. He was supported by many enlightened landowners but undermined by proponents of low taxes, #TrickleDownEconomics, & #charity. All astutely observed by #JaneAusten!
