About

Consider the ways that Austen’s novels can be seen as “the work of many generations”, examining the literary influences on an Austen novel of your choice.

This interactive session (1.5-2 hours), is adaptable to suit different ages and stages, will give students the opportunity to delve a little deeper into an area of Chawton House’s collections or operations. Sessions require minimal preparation, and are run by an experienced member of the Chawton House team. They include a prep sheet (provided in advance where necessary), group activities and discussion, some book handling, and takeaway materials.
