Jane Austen's House presents its 2023 Annual Lecture, filmed onsite in Chawton with acclaimed Austen scholar Professor John Mullan... “I believe, ma’am, I may safely promise you never to dance with him.” When Elizabeth Bennet says this to her mother about Mr Darcy, she believes that she is speaking the truth. She is destined, like most of Jane Austen's characters, to contradict her words by her...

It is the first of september and i dont know how did this happend
Jane Austen is my intelligent, funny, subversive, and a-bit-mean friend from Regency England.
I cannot believe it's taken me 4 years to see this video! Thank you, any of us who are such fans of JA that we've read even all the biographies and her letters, do appreciate your showing us these miniatures of the Digweeds. Having read about them in the Letters and the biographies, we are very familiar with this family.
Thank you for posting this on CZcams!! I really enjoyed the talk
Thank you🙏
I love mrs. Bennet

Bonjour de France vous affirmer que j'ai été Cassandra Austen dans cette autre vie . Je me suis réincarnée aujourd'hui.Je me nomme dans vie-ci Lourdes j'ai 55 ans .
JA use of the modal verb "must".
Mr Bennett, fave character, "such an odd mixture . . ."
Trying to remember JM at a "contest" berween Austen (he was championing her) and Bronte.
It’s on CZcams, John Mullan and Kate Mosse for the Intelligence squared Queens of English Literature debate
Fabulous job by April, great performance.
You are the best!! The new Jane Austen!! Congratulations!!
Brilliant! Thank you! 🙂
You don't mention what I think is the most blatant contradiction in P&P: Darcy's saying that once his good opinion of someone is lost, it is lost forever!
But he NEVER lost his good opinion of Lizzie, if that is what you're suggesting. He made his case to Lizzie, mended his own ways, and hoped things down the road might improve. He didn't change his mind about Wickham, but he adjusted as was indicated. IF you're mentioning his first impression of her from the initial assembly, that impression was built on little but appearance and his assessment of her likely status in society. As soon as he was in her presence a few times, the appeal of her wit and character (when viewed in light of her smile and physical attractions) became obvious.
@@kevinrussell-jp6om You are right. He could not have lost his good opinion of Lizzie because he never had one to start with. Still, Darcy's proclamation is rather pompous, and does not endear him to me.
@@yon8378 Yes, Darcy has flaws/warts. He is pompous, and Americans of a certain type will have trouble warming to him. We have a much easier time identifying with a guy like Captain Wentworth, or with Gabe Oak in Far From the Madding Crowd. Darcy is proud and Upper Crust.
The Jane Austen House is so beautiful! I would love to go back one day. ❤️
I’d love to visit one day, it’s my dream. Jane Austen is my favourite author of all time, I’ve read and loved all her books 📚🌷👒
Here's a thought Did our Jane go to university. I don't believe so. Ok, what about Shakespeare, did he attend a University. I don't know, but I don't recall that he did. My point is, that such brilliance, such ability, they don't necessarily come from education or even broad life experience. It seems they come more from an ability to observe and accurately perceive society and to describe it, with wit, with respect, and with fitting amd moral comentary, and I don't think you can do that if all that isn't in you.
Spectacular performance! Congratulations on that wonderful work. The actor's voice is fantastic. I could listen to him more and more times. This is my favourite moment in the novel. Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Lovely. I also laughed often. Austen always makes me smile, as if you are sharing secrets together. Thank you everyone. Like many, I am currently enjoying Mr. West in ACGS. ❤
Anyone who uses a Monty Python reference in a Jane Austen lecture is marvelous! ❤😂
Haha. Very good, Alice. Only a question of time before you’re recruited onto The History Channel. Need a fresh face there asap and an alternative to Dan Snow etc, plus Lucy Worsley, now she’s gone to the dark side (quiz shows!!)
My favourite adaptation, which yieIds the most definitive EIizabeth [EIizabeth Garvie] aIso yieIds the most probIematic Darcy [RintouI] makes EIizabeth's change her mind He does not smiIe enough and the portrait at PemberIey is misconceived]. The best Mr. Darcy is sadIy no Ionger extant. It was AIan BadeI who does smiIe and renders some of Darcy's mosr provocative remarks credibIe and eventuaIIy persuasive. I remember his smiIe and voice when he remarks that 'Dancing is aImost over-rated accompIishments , it is in vogue amongst Iess poIished societies Every Savage can dance.' We know he is speaking epigramaticaIIy .. If you want to get some idea of the of the dramatic tension between EIizabeth' and Darcy try to find AIan BadeI in a scene from a BBC production of the WinsIow Boy' pIaying opposite MicheIe Dotrice. The finaI scene reveaIs the attraction of WinsIow's daughter and Sir Robert [in truth Carson] and his trying to conceaI his vuInerabiIity. It is a moving scene but it dispIays some of the quaIities that BadeI brough to Darcy. and come to think of it MicheIe Dotrice wouId have been a very credibIe EIizabeth. Another reveIation of what EIizabeth true thinks of Mr Darcy comes in the scene that John MuIIen mentioned mentions at the piano at Rosings when she says to CoIoneI FitzwiIIiam' shaII we as your cousin how it is possibIe for a man of sense of education finds it difficuIt to recommend himseIf to strangers?'[this is for memory I do not think it is an exact quote but the gist'] If I have one criticism of the adaptation afore said it is when at the piano Darcy remarks about her expressing opinions that are not in fact her own she' Iaughs heartiIy' 'and it is reveaIing of the deeper, more private EIizabeth but in this adaptation she does not but the Iaugh shouId be hearty and it is interesting. Darcy has penetrated her secret and that is attractive to her. So few peopIe divined it
It's usually a toss up between Jane and the Brontes for me. When i want to cry and take kife seriously give me the Brontes. When I want to laugh give me Austen. But the older i get I see that Jane saw the tears also but like her "i dearly love a laugh" and after all that makes life easier to bear
I mean life. And Pride and prejudice is my favorite book
Love to hear John Mullion talking on Jane Austen I too have heard him in person on online many times If he talks again Can you ask him to tell you what he knows about Janes Father ..... In my mind I now see someone like John himself Immensely proud of Jane
Mullon So sorry Pesky spell checker changed my message
This got awkward really fast
the 1970 persuasion is excellent even though the hair styling is strange It is pretty close to the novel as to script and character
no film of an hour and a half can even begin to capture JA personally I have never watched any production under 5 hours. I wonder that you have chosen such shallow adaptions
That ‘Jane Austen’s Monsters’ lecture sounds incredibly interesting. I’d love to see that turned into another book so we could all access/read it.
Lovely man I saw him at the hey festival signing books when ' what matters in Jane Austen ' He was soo lovely chatting to everyone in such a animated way that I joined the queue so I could say hello to him Quite a few of his lectures are on CZcams and he's always a delight to watch
Yes, Prof. Mullan is an absolute delight. He teaches me to cut Mrs. Bennet some slack (she is more absurdity than monster) and points out so many subtle aspects of the book that the uninitiated 16-year-old would miss on the first reading. Discussions like this make me wish I'd followed a career in literature.
Thank you!
Brilliant.my favorite historian ...she must do the remake of Pride and Prejudice...and Zombies
Jolly good show Alice. Well done.
My favourite contradictions by Mrs. Bennet are when she contradicts what she's saying in the very moment by behaving in opposition to it. Such as when she promises to be true to her word to never speak to Elizabeth again (after her refusal of Mr. Collins), while continuing to talk to her many sentences after. Or when she says about some subject I forget, that she'll never talk to any soul about it, and then says that she said the exact same thing to Mrs. Phillips the other day (that she wouldn't mention the subject to anyone again), so this moment of the conversation we're reading, contradicting what she said to Mrs. Phillips, and what she is saying now, by bringing up the topic again.
Thank you so much for sharing this.
JA good stuff
Makes me want to go back and read the book!
Book rules
Thank you! Just wonderful !
I've never favored Darcy. I much prefer Edward Ferrars and Frederick Wentworth.
Pulling my heartstrings! Excellent job.
Fantastic delivery.
I wonder if the letter wasn't actually tucked in, but overlapped and then sealed, otherwise no pount in the seal, and left open? This is fab to see the folding though, thank you
Beautiful
What a pleasure to hear the thoughts of someone so learned and passionate. Thank you.
Very good acting on behalf of the two performers here, well done.
Love it!!!
Now, may we read it? I want to reference this writing style when learning or correcting my cursive.
Brilliant 👏 👏 👏
