Homecoming & Manhood in Persuasion
Jane Austen Birthday Celebration
In every novel, the successful hero experiences the kind of homecoming that means the most to Austen: that of the mind and heart. It is a process by which he comes to know a truth about himself that transforms him. “Homecoming and Manhood in Persuasion” considers what helps or hinders Captain Wentworth in his quest to do so.
Join us Saturday, December 16th, for the celebration of the 242nd anniversary of the birthday of our beloved Jane Austen. Dr. Joyce Tarpley, the 2015-2016 JASNA Traveling Lecturer will be our speaker. Dr. Tarpley is an entertaining and informative speaker who will bring fresh perspectives to the novels of Jane Austen. Join us for a celebration worthy of our favorite Regency Author.
