200 Years of Pride & Prejudice

Jane Austen’s masterpiece was published on the 28th of January, 1813.
Join the world in celebrating the bicentennial of England’s most celebrated novel.

Austen’s “darling child” is the subject of several new books, including Susannah Fullerton’s Celebrating Pride and Prejudice: 200 Years of
Jane Austen's Masterpiece. (#14396) In this beautiful and detailed book, we learn a great deal about P&P, beginning with the story of its
>> In Print

publication and its reception among the famous and infamous. On page 17 we learn the story of Austen’s neighbor Miss Mary Benn, a
poor spinster, who was the very first non-Austen given the pleasure of hearing the book read aloud, and one of very few people in history
who heard it from the author’s lips. She was delighted even though, as Susannah tells us, “She died
without ever knowing who had written it, and that she had heard it from the lips of its author.”
The book goes on to detail the backgrounds of the major characters, including a section on the
significance of Mr Collins’ preference for the “demeaning” Fordyce’s Sermons. (p. 98) We learn about
different editions with wildy varying illustrations and cover images (p. 141) – many of which will be
familiar to anyone who has browsed our shelves – and continue our journey through translations,
films, merchandise, and a discussion of modern Austen fandom. For similar titles, visit www.janeaustenbooks.net/aboutpandp

Jan 28, 2013 saw an unprecedented online gathering of Janeites from all over the world. The Jane Austen Centre in Bath
hosted an international “readathon” of Pride & Prejudice. The novel was broadcast to the loving throngs in a manner that
would likely surprise its author. Through web cameras set up in Bath, Chawton, and many other locations fans and
Austen notables continued a 200 year old tradition of sharing this beloved novel. visit www.janeausten.co.uk/readathon
The online bicentennial celebration continues throughout the year, with Austen-related businesses offering special

>> Online
discounts and bloggers holding P&P reading contests with exciting giveaways. Laurel Ann Nattress, hostess of
AustenProse.com, book reviewer, and editor of Jane Austen Made Me Do It (#13847) has challenged her readers to catch
up on “all of the movies, [and] all of the sequels and spinoffs.” Readers check in with their latest P&P conquest every month in what is
one of the most enjoyable “challenges” of all time. Catch up on the P&P Bicentenary Challenge 2013 at www.austenprose.com

England’s Austen sites are going all-out this year to celebrate Pride & Prejudice. From lectures to special exhibits to
>> In the U.k.

dances and teas, almost every week brings an exciting new event. If you missed the Jane Austen Centre’s readathon, stop
by Jane Austen’s House Museum (JAHM) in Chawton on Friday the 17th of May for a “relay” reading of P&P. Or see
an open-air performance of the ultimate love story at London’s Regent’s Park between June 20 & July 20. JAHM has
put together a dazzling new website where visitors can find P&P events in England and all over the world.
For more information visit www.prideandprejudice200.org.uk.

The Jane Austen Society of North America (JASNA) is marking the 200th anniversary of Pride & Prejudice with their
Annual General Meeting held in Minneapolis in late September. This year’s theme is “Pride and Prejudice… Timeless.”
Like every AGM, this year’s will be packed full of dynamic speakers, special events, tours, and even a ball! Here at Jane
Austen Books it is our firm belief that every Austen fan should make an AGM pilgrimage at least once, and what better

Brazil: Though a relative newcomer to the world of Jane Austen Societies, JASBRA’s followers are a fun, vibrant bunch.
Although we don’t speak Portuguese, we have learned what Orgulho e Preconceito means, and with the help of the translator
on their web page, we’ve also learned a lot about their passion for Austen. JASBRA held its national meeting in January of
this year. www.janeaustenbrasil.com.br
The Netherlands: Although you may need to dust off your web translator service for this site as well, it doesn’t take an expert linguist to
see that JASNL’s members are highly devoted to Jane. This year’s bicentennial events include a P&P tea with JASA’s Susannah Fullerton,
a ball, and a visit from Sandy Lerner, owner of Chawton House Library. To learn more about JASNL (and to see their fabulous
