Jane Austen's Regency World Magazine Essay

8/4/2015

0 Comments

 
I was delighted to receive my author's copy of "Pride and Prostitutes." (No, it's not autobiographical.) Check it out in the July/August issue of Jane Austen's Regency World Magazine. It's an article co-written with Ruth Knezevich, in which we follow-up to our Modern Philology essay, the one that attracted the notice of the New York Times. In this new magazine essay, we talk about our research adventures and how we drew our conclusions about Charles Austen, two Barbardos madams, and a pickle purchase. The essay is not available online, but here are the publication details: "Pride and Prostitutes" Jane Austen's Regency World Magazine (July/Aug 2015): 23-30. Print.

    ​The quotation book I edited, The Daily Jane Austen: A Year of Quotes, is just out from for the University of Chicago Press.

    With the support of a Guggenheim fellowship I'm completing biography on sister novelists Jane and Anna Maria Porter, to be published by Bloomsbury in fall 2021.

    When I'm able to elbow my way into it, I also write on roller derby, women, and sports. I recently published a piece on Rollerball (1975) in Slate.
