SUMMARY:There's No Place Like Home
DESCRIPTION:Following her very successful breakout session at this year’s AGM\, we are pleased to welcome Dr. Susan Jones of Palm Beach Atlantic University. In her juvenilia\, Austen developed a pattern of examining and mocking the home and its inhabitants\, holding their erratic actions up to an ironic and comedic scrutiny. This early comedic writing created a path to her mature vision\, when she established her settled moral foundations.

SUMMARY:Sculpture on a Flat Surface: History and Demonstration of Inlay in Federal America
DESCRIPTION:In 1795\, Thomas Barrett agreed to teach his young apprentice\, John Lenox\, the arts and mysteries of inlay. Barrett\, thoroughly gifted in his trade\, executed inlay and marquetry for all of Baltimores leading cabinetmakers. Steven Lattas presentation will explain these arts and mysteries\, will show examples of his contemporary methods\, and will illustrate how these centuries old techniques are replicated in contemporary Federal style pieces. \n\n\n\nThe sweeping changes in American Federal period cabinetmaking and furniture styles closely paralleled the emergence of the new nation\, leading to an age of the specialist and commerce with gilders\, upholsterers\, carvers\, wood-turners settling into their individual niches. Of all these skills\, few generate such awe and bewilderment as inlay\, particularly that of the Federal period. Inlay and adherence to the antique\, became the model of perfection in furniture and the rage of the new nation\, defining the grace and style of these pieces. Its complexities can mystify a modern aesthetic used to machine-made disposable furniture. Professor Lattas presentation will help us understand the use of inlay to create this mode of Federal era furniture\, demystify its practice\, as well as offer insights into the rich and diverse history of inlay in early America.

SUMMARY:Teaching Jane Austen
DESCRIPTION:Professor Tim Spurgeon from Lawrence University will share his experiences on “Teaching Jane Austen.” From Professor Spurgeon: From Professor Spurgin: “What’s it like to read Jane Austen — all of Jane Austen — for the first time? What stands out? Which books and characters emerge as favorites? What seems to be the larger shape and direction of Austen’s career? My talk will address these questions\, drawing on my recent experience teaching a course devoted exclusively to Austen’s works. I’ll share responses from students\, and also pass along some personal reflections. Having known and loved the books for so long\, I found it fascinating to see how Austen looked — and what she meant — to first-time readers. I hope you will\, too.” \n\n\n\nRegister here.

SUMMARY:History Happy Hour: Life\, Death\, and Locks of Hair
DESCRIPTION:During the nineteenth century\, people across the United States collected\, exchanged\, and displayed locks of hair. Jewelry made from human hair is the most familiar form of hair collecting\, in part because many of these pieces have been preserved in archives and historic homes like the Camron-Stanford House. Yet nineteenth-century Americans kept locks of hair in a wide variety of ways. Severed braids\, curls\, and strands were tucked in letters and sent through the mail\, saved in specialized albums\, and thrust into the hands of loved ones just before death. Although this practice is often associated with white\, middle-class men and women\, the emotional meanings carried by locks of hair were broadly shared by Americans from different regions\, class backgrounds\, racial groups\, and religious traditions.

SUMMARY:Tales of Terror! Gothic Tales by the Virtual Fireside
DESCRIPTION:The final night is a dramatic reading of Mary Shelley’s little-known novella Mathilda. Although written between August 1819 and February 1820\, the subject matter was so controversial that it was not published until 1959. It tells the story of Mathilda\, a young woman desperately in love with a gifted young poet\, Woodville\, from whom she hides the shameful secret of her father’s incestuous love.

SUMMARY:Elections in Jane Austen's Time

If you think our electoral process is confusing and complicated\, just see what it was like in Regency England! Email JasnaSWF@gmail.com for an invitation.

SUMMARY:Tales of Terror! Gothic Stories by the Virtual Fireside
DESCRIPTION:Night two is dedicated to Anne Radcliffe\, the most significant Gothic writer of the eighteenth century. Far from being a horror writer\, Radcliffe wished to terrify her readers and make them feel alive through her words. Her most famous work\, The Mysteries of Udolpho (1794) takes place in the sixteenth century in Southern France and tells the tale of orphaned Emily St Aubert\, imprisoned in a castle by her villainous uncle Montoni.

SUMMARY:Is Piano Your Forte?
DESCRIPTION:Why did Austen make music\, especially when played upon the pianoforte\, a star in so many scenes? Think of Jane Fairfax receiving an expensive instrument from a secret admirer\, or Mary Bennet trying to gain some importance by applying herself more assiduously than her prettier sisters. Join discussion leaders Elizabeth Paquette and Patti Woodall to explore this fascinating topic. Austen never wasted a word–those keyboards are in there for a reason!

SUMMARY:The Regency Revival: From Deco Greco to Hollywood Glam
DESCRIPTION:The classical elegance of the Regency period in England is considered one of the most sophisticated and refined moments in design history. Throughout the twentieth century\, designers took elements of the Regency vocabulary and restyled them to meld with the reigning aesthetic of the day. The effects proved extraordinary. Ms. Eerdmans will begin with an overview of the original Regency period\, which built its sophisticated aesthetic on the example of the Neoclassical style of Napoleon’s time\, then continue with the exemplary Art Deco designs of Emile-Jacques Ruhlmann and Süe et Mare in France. By the 1930s\, the Vogue Regency had returned home to England. There\, Sibyl Colefax and Syrie Maugham created stylized classical interiors whose novelty and theatricality influenced fashion and helped shape the design aesthetic of such contemporary fashion photographers as Cecil Beaton and Horst B. Horst. In America\, the Regency Revival took hold in Hollywood with the lavish film sets of the 1930s and 1940s created by great studio art directors such as Cedric Gibbons (MGM) and Van Nest Polglase (RKO). The popularity of films like Pride and Prejudice and The Scarlet Pimpernel further popularized the style. Designers and architects to the stars Billy Haines\, John Woolf and T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings made their marks with work for the Hollywood elite. Our presentation will include interiors of the 1930s and 1940s\, when “Lady decorators” Dorothy Draper and Elsie de Wolfe set the trends and cut a stylish Regency-infused swath from coast to coast. Rounding out these vintage interiors will be the Regency inspired work of acclaimed contemporary designers Albert Hadley\, Jacques Grange\, William Diamond\, Anthony Baratta\, and Kelly Wearstler. Join us as we revel in this fascinating topic enlivened with a rich selection of images depicting period interiors\, film sets\, and furniture.
