Description

The premiere episode is here! In this episode, Emily and Lauren discuss the first five chapters of Sense and Sensibility with a focus on power. Also included: the historical context of Jane Austen’s first published novel, discussing how 2020 stan culture can be linked to 18th-century sensibility, and a generous amount of dislike for Fanny Dashwood.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re not “allowed” to like Jane Austen – whether because her work is too white, too academic, or too straight – we’ve been there. And this podcast is for you. Each episode, we use a different theme to guide our reading through the Austen canon to give you the historical context of each work, draw connections to pop culture, and discover new ways of interpreting old texts. There’s something in Jane Austen’s novels for everyone. Whether you’re a long-time Austen devotee or have never read a word of her writing, we hope you'll join us in Reclaiming Jane.
