Welcome
back from break! A few people from the Eighteenth-Century Reading Group
and the Nineteenth-Century/Victorian Reading Group have decided to
co-host three casual meetings over the course of January and
February---we're calling it "Dinner and Drinks with
Jane Austen." We will be reading and discussing Sense and Sensibility, Persuasion,
and some of the most crucial (and some of the most recent) Austen
criticism across several delicious Bloomington dining and drinking
locations. You need not be a specialist
in C18 or C19 British literature to attend! And, of course, if you are
in need of transport to any of the events, you may contact me at
raseiler@indiana.edu and I will personally send over a phaeton or
barouche for your convenience.
The dates and locations are below--while most of the time our respective
reading groups do not require RSVPs, we are hosting these events at
restaurants, so please contact me (again at raseiler@indiana.edu) at
least 24 hours prior to the event so I can have
a decent estimate of the headcount for reservations. Reminders will be
sent out closer to the dates!
