PRIDE & PREJUDICE - FULL Audio Book by Jane Austen - English Literature - Fiction - Pride and Prejudice is the most famous of Jane Austen's novels, and its opening is one of the most famous lines in English literature -- "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." Its manuscript was first written between 1796 and 1797, and was initially called First Impressions, but was never published under that title. Following revisions it was published on 28 January 1813 by the same Mr. Egerton of the Military Library, Whitehall, who had brought out Sense and Sensibility. Like both its predecessor and Northanger Abbey, it was written at Steventon Rectory. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia. org)

Filmed at the Royal Geographical Society on 26th February 2014.
Jane Austen created the definitive picture of Georgian England -- a landscape of Palladian mansions and handsome parsonages, peopled by rigidly-divided classes. No writer matches Austen's sensitive ear for the hypocrisy and irony lurking beneath the genteel conversation. Never has a novelist written comic prose with such subtlety and restraint. If you want to understand the early 19th century -- the power of money and inheritance, the clothes, the interior décor -- Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice are worth a dozen history books, and any number of second-rate novels by Austen's contemporaries.
That's the argument of the Janeites, but to the aficionados of Emily Brontë they are the misguided worshippers of a circumscribed mind. In Wuthering Heights, Brontë dispensed with Austen's niceties and the upper-middle class drawing rooms of Bath and the home counties. Her backdrop is the savage Yorkshire moors, her subject the all-consuming passions of the heart. The story of Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw is a full-blooded tale of violent attraction, thwarted love, death and the supernatural that makes Jane Austen look mundane -- and clutches at the reader's heart with a vigour and directness unmatched in English literature.
To help you decide who should be crowned queen of English letters we lined up the best advocates to make the case for each writer. They called on actors, including stars Dominic West and Sam West, to illustrate their arguments with readings from the novels.

More About "Persuasion" by Jane Austen:
Persuasion is linked to Northanger Abbey not only by the fact that the two books were originally bound up in one volume and published together, but also because both stories are set partly in Bath, a fashionable city with which Austen was well acquainted, having lived there from 1801 to 1805.
Besides the theme of persuasion, the novel evokes other topics, such as the Royal Navy, in which two of Jane Austen's brothers ultimately rose to the rank of admiral. As in Northanger Abbey, the superficial social life of Bath—well known to Austen, who spent several relatively unhappy and unproductive years there—is portrayed extensively and serves as a setting for the second half of the book. In many respects, Persuasion marks a break with Austen's previous works, both in the more biting, even irritable satire directed at some of the novel's characters and in the regretful, resigned outlook of its otherwise admirable heroine, Anne Elliot, in the first part of the story. Against this is set the energy and appeal of the Royal Navy, which symbolises for Anne and the reader the possibility of a more outgoing, engaged, and fulfilling life, and it is this worldview which triumphs for the most part at the end of the novel.
More About Jane Austen:
Jane Austen (16 December 1775 – 18 July 1817) was an English novelist whose works of romantic fiction, set among the landed gentry, earned her a place as one of the most widely read writers in English literature. Her realism, biting irony and social commentary have gained her historical importance among scholars and critics.
Austen lived her entire life as part of a close-knit family located on the lower fringes of the English landed gentry. She was educated primarily by her father and older brothers as well as through her own reading. The steadfast support of her family was critical to her development as a professional writer. Her artistic apprenticeship lasted from her teenage years into her thirties. During this period, she experimented with various literary forms, including the epistolary novel which she then abandoned, and wrote and extensively revised three major novels and began a fourth. From 1811 until 1816, with the release of Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814) and Emma (1815), she achieved success as a published writer. She wrote two additional novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, both published posthumously in 1818, and began a third, which was eventually titled Sanditon, but died before completing it.(Summaries adapted from Wikipedia.org)

Bigeon: Comfort remains, friendship remains, if you are lucky as I was.::Jane Austen: Happiness in marriage remains a matter of chance::Mme. Bigeon: But the fuss we make about who to choose.

Plot: The year is 1795 and young Jane Austen is a feisty 20-year-old and emerging writer who already sees a world beyond class and commerce, beyond pride and prejudice, and dreams of doing what was then nearly unthinkable - marrying for love. Naturally, her parents are searching for a wealthy, well-appointed husband to assure their daughter's future social standing. They are eyeing Mr. Wisley, nephew to the very formidable, not to mention very rich, local aristocrat Lady Gresham, as a prospective match. But when Jane meets the roguish and decidedly non-aristocratic Tom Lefroy, sparks soon fly along with the sharp repartee. His intellect and arrogance raise her ire - then knock her head over heels. Now, the couple, whose flirtation flies in the face of the sense and sensibility of the age, is faced with a terrible dilemma. If they attempt to marry, they will risk everything that matters - family, friends and fortune.

Taglines: Becoming a woman. Becoming a legend. Her own life is her greatest inspiration. "A woman especially if she has the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can." -Jane Austen Between sense and sensibility and pride and prejudice was a life worth writing about. Jane Austen's Greatest Love Story Was Her Own
Quotes:
Tom Lefroy: What rules of conduct apply in this rural situation? We have been introduced, have we not?::Jane Austen: What value is there in an introduction when you cannot even remember my name? Indeed, can barely stay awake in my presence.Mrs. Austen: Affection is desirable. Money is absolutely indispensable!
Jane Austen: If I marry, I want it to be out of affection. Like my mother.::Mrs. Austen: And I have to dig my own damn potatoes!
Tom Lefroy: How can you, of all people, dispose of yourself without affection?::Jane Austen: How can I dispose of myself with it?
Mrs. Austen: JANE!::Lady Gresham: What is she doing?::Mr. Wisley: Writing.::Lady Gresham: Can anything be done about it?
Tom Lefroy: What value will there ever be in life, if we are not together?
Jane Austen: My characters shall have, after a little trouble, all that they desire.
Tom Lefroy: If you wish to practice the art of fiction, to be considered the equal of a masculine author, experience is vital.
Tom Lefroy: A metropolitan mind may be less susceptible to extended juvenile self-regard.
Cassandra Austen: [regarding 'First Impressions', which will later become 'Pride and Prejudice'] How does the story begin?::Jane Austen: Badly.::Cassandra Austen: And then?::Jane Austen: It gets worse.

Quotes:
Henry Tilney: Now I must give you one smirk, then we can be rational again.Henry Tilney: Your imagination may be overactive, but your instinct was true. Our mother did suffer grievously and at the hands of our father. Do you remember I spoke of a kind of vampirism?::Catherine Morland: Yes.::Henry Tilney: Perhaps it was stupid to express it so, but we did watch him drain the life out of her with his coldness and his cruelty. He married her for her money, you see. She thought it was for love. It was a long time until she knew his heart was cold. No vampires, no blood. But worse crimes, crimes of the heart.::Catherine Morland: It was stupid and wicked of me to think such things as I did.
[last lines]::Catherine Morland: He thought I was rich?::Henry Tilney: It was Thorpe who misled him at first. Thorpe, who hoped to marry you himself. He thought you were Mr. Allen's heiress and he exaggerated Mr. Allen's birth to my father. You were only guilty of not being as rich as you were supposed to be. For that he turned you out of the house.::Catherine Morland: I thought you were so angry with me, you told him what you knew. Which would have justified any discourtesy.::Henry Tilney: No! The discourtesy was all his. I-I have broken with my father, Catherine, I may never speak to him again.::Catherine Morland: What did he say to you?::Henry Tilney: Let me instead tell you what I said to him. I told him that I felt myself bound to you, by honor, by affection, and by a love so strong that nothing he could do could deter me from...::Catherine Morland: From what?::Henry Tilney: Before I go on, I should tell you there's a pretty good chance he'll disinherit me. I fear I may never be a rich man, Catherine.::Catherine Morland: Please, go on with what you were going to say!::Henry Tilney: Will you marry me, Catherine?::Catherine Morland: Yes! Yes I will! Yes!::[They kiss, and she backs him into a wall in her passion]::[voiceover]::The Voice of Jane Austen: To begin perfect happiness at the respective ages of 26 and 18 is to do pretty well. Catherine and Henry were married, and in due course the joys of wedding gave way to the blessing of a christening. The bells rang and everyone smiled. No one more than so than Eleanor, whose beloved's sudden ascension to title and fortune finally allowed them to marry. I leave it to be settled whether the tendency of this story be to recommend parental tyranny or to reward filial disobedience.
Catherine Morland: When shall we go into society, Mrs Allen? I suppose it is too late this evening?::Mrs. Allen: Bless you, my child, we neither of us have a stitch to wear!::Catherine Morland: I did bring my best frock and my pink muslin is not too bad, I think.::Mrs. Allen: No, no, no, no! Would you have us laughed out of Bath?::Mr. Allen: Resign yourself, Catherine! Shops must be visited! Money must be spent! Do you think you could bear it?::Catherine Morland: Very easily, sir!
Mrs. Allen: There! Did you ever see anything prettier, Mr Allen?::Mr. Allen: Other than yourself, do you mean, my dear?::Mrs. Allen: Oh, fine, Mr Allen! But Catherine...::Mr. Allen: Ah, she looks just as she should! Now... might we make our way, do you think? I entertain high hopes of our arriving at the rooms by midnight.::Mrs. Allen: How he teases us, Catherine! Midnight, indeed!
Isabella Thorpe: My dear one, in this false world, people often make promises they have little intention of keeping. Remember, we are your *true* friends.
[Riding in the curricle, Henry and Catherine see the first view of Northanger Abbey]::Henry Tilney: There.::Catherine Morland: It's exactly as I imagined. It's just like what we read about.::Henry Tilney: Are you prepared to encounter all of its horrors?::Catherine Morland: Horrors? Is Northanger haunted, then?::Henry Tilney: That's just the least of it. Dungeons, and sliding panels; skeletons; strange, unearthly cries in the night that pierce your very soul!::Catherine Morland: [sardonically] Any vampires? Don't say vampires. I could bear anything, but not vampires.::Henry Tilney: [laughing] Miss Morland, I believe you are teasing me now. [seriously] I have to say, there is a kind of vampirism. No, let's just say that all houses have their secrets, and Northanger is no exception.

Famous quotes by Jane Austen:
"What wild imaginations one forms where dear self is concerned! How sure to be mistaken!"
"To look almost pretty is an acquisition of higher delight to a girl who has been looking plain for the first fifteen years of her life than a beauty from her cradle can ever receive."
"Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love."
"Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery."
"If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more."
"She was a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper."
"It sometimes happens that a woman is handsomer at twenty-nine than she was ten years before"
"To sit in the shade on a fine day and look upon verdure is the most perfect refreshment."
"A person who can write a long letter with ease, cannot write ill."
"I have been a selfish being all my life, in practice, though not in principle."
"Life seems but a quick succession of busy nothings."
"An engaged woman is always more agreeable than a disengaged. She is satisfied with herself. Her cares are over, and she feels that she may exert all her powers of pleasing without suspicion. All is safe with a lady engaged; no harm can be done."
"Selfishness must always be forgiven you know, because there is no hope of a cure."
"Business, you know, may bring you money, but friendship hardly ever does."
"There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort."
"Seldom, very seldom, does complete truth belong to any human disclosure; seldom can it happen that something is not a little disguised, or a little mistaken."
"We do not look in our great cities for our best morality."
"Men have had every advantage of us in telling their own story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything."
"Next to being married, a girl likes to be crossed in love a little now and then."
"A woman, especially, if she have the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can."

PRIDE & PREJUDICE - FULL AudioBook by Jane Austen - English Literature - Fiction
PRIDE & PREJUDICE - FULL Audio Book by Jane Austen - English Literature - Fiction - Pride and Prejudice is the most famous of Jane Austen's novels, and its opening is one of the most famous lines in English literature -- "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." Its manuscript was first written between 1796 and 1797, and was initially called First Impressions, but was never published under that title. Following revisions it was published on 28 January 1813 by the same Mr. Egerton of the Military Library, Whitehall, who had brought out Sense and Sensibility. Like both its predecessor and Northanger Abbey, it was written at Steventon Rectory. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia. org) ► Follow Us On TWITTER: https://w... -

Jane Austen created the definitive picture of Georgian England -- a landscape of Palladian mansions and handsome parsonages, peopled by rigidly-divided classes. No writer matches Austen's sensitive ear for the hypocrisy and irony lurking beneath the genteel conversation. Never has a novelist written comic prose with such subtlety and restraint. If you want to understand the early 19th century -- the power of money and inheritance, the clothes, the interior décor -- Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice are worth a dozen history books, and any number of second-rate novels by Austen's contemporaries. That's the argument of the Janeites, but to the a... -

PRIDE & PREJUDICE - FULL Audio Book by Jane Austen - English Literature - Fiction - Pride and Prejudice is the most famous of Jane Austen's novels, and its opening is one of the most famous lines in English literature -- "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." Its manuscript was first written between 1796 and 1797, and was initially called First Impressions, but was never published under that title. Following revisions it was published on 28 January 1813 by the same Mr. Egerton of the Military Library, Whitehall, who had brought out Sense and Sensibility. Like both its predecessor and Northanger Abbey, it was written at Steventon Rectory. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia. org)

Filmed at the Royal Geographical Society on 26th February 2014.
Jane Austen created the definitive picture of Georgian England -- a landscape of Palladian mansions and handsome parsonages, peopled by rigidly-divided classes. No writer matches Austen's sensitive ear for the hypocrisy and irony lurking beneath the genteel conversation. Never has a novelist written comic prose with such subtlety and restraint. If you want to understand the early 19th century -- the power of money and inheritance, the clothes, the interior décor -- Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice are worth a dozen history books, and any number of second-rate novels by Austen's contemporaries.
That's the argument of the Janeites, but to the aficionados of Emily Brontë they are the misguided worshippers of a circumscribed mind. In Wuthering Heights, Brontë dispensed with Austen's niceties and the upper-middle class drawing rooms of Bath and the home counties. Her backdrop is the savage Yorkshire moors, her subject the all-consuming passions of the heart. The story of Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw is a full-blooded tale of violent attraction, thwarted love, death and the supernatural that makes Jane Austen look mundane -- and clutches at the reader's heart with a vigour and directness unmatched in English literature.
To help you decide who should be crowned queen of English letters we lined up the best advocates to make the case for each writer. They called on actors, including stars Dominic West and Sam West, to illustrate their arguments with readings from the novels.

More About "Persuasion" by Jane Austen:
Persuasion is linked to Northanger Abbey not only by the fact that the two books were originally bound up in one volume and published together, but also because both stories are set partly in Bath, a fashionable city with which Austen was well acquainted, having lived there from 1801 to 1805.
Besides the theme of persuasion, the novel evokes other topics, such as the Royal Navy, in which two of Jane Austen's brothers ultimately rose to the rank of admiral. As in Northanger Abbey, the superficial social life of Bath—well known to Austen, who spent several relatively unhappy and unproductive years there—is portrayed extensively and serves as a setting for the second half of the book. In many respects, Persuasion marks a break with Austen's previous works, both in the more biting, even irritable satire directed at some of the novel's characters and in the regretful, resigned outlook of its otherwise admirable heroine, Anne Elliot, in the first part of the story. Against this is set the energy and appeal of the Royal Navy, which symbolises for Anne and the reader the possibility of a more outgoing, engaged, and fulfilling life, and it is this worldview which triumphs for the most part at the end of the novel.
More About Jane Austen:
Jane Austen (16 December 1775 – 18 July 1817) was an English novelist whose works of romantic fiction, set among the landed gentry, earned her a place as one of the most widely read writers in English literature. Her realism, biting irony and social commentary have gained her historical importance among scholars and critics.
Austen lived her entire life as part of a close-knit family located on the lower fringes of the English landed gentry. She was educated primarily by her father and older brothers as well as through her own reading. The steadfast support of her family was critical to her development as a professional writer. Her artistic apprenticeship lasted from her teenage years into her thirties. During this period, she experimented with various literary forms, including the epistolary novel which she then abandoned, and wrote and extensively revised three major novels and began a fourth. From 1811 until 1816, with the release of Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814) and Emma (1815), she achieved success as a published writer. She wrote two additional novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, both published posthumously in 1818, and began a third, which was eventually titled Sanditon, but died before completing it.(Summaries adapted from Wikipedia.org)

Her artistic apprenticeship lasted from her teenage years into her thirties. During this period, she experimented with various literary forms, including the epistolary novel which she then abandoned, and wrote and extensively revised three major novels and began a fourth. From 1811 until 1816, with the release of Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814) and Emma (1815), she achieved success as a published writer. She wrote two additional novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, both published posthumously in 1818, and began a third, which was eventually titled Sanditon, but died before completing it.(Summaries adapted from Wikipedia.org)

Emily Blunt talks The Jane Austen Book Club
We've had a fair number of Jane Austen adaptations and reinventions over the past few years, and now we have a film that's based on a novel about Austen fans. An all-star cast signed on for this effort - Maria Bello, Hugh Dancy, Maggie Grace - but it's Emily Blunt's uptight Prudie who steals the show, and debutante director (although she's a veteran screenwriter) Robin Swicord who holds the whole thing together. -

Stephen Colbert took over as host of The Late Show on Tuesday, Sept. 8, 2015. Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and best known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Prior to joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed “The Colbert Report,” which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one third of the time. Good luck, Bill!"

Sweet Thang
Sweet Thang
Hey Lady I've been going crazy,
thinking all the time, you¹re always on my mind.
Hey sugar let¹s not waste no time
let us pour the wine, let¹s set this off right.
Step in my room, cause lady it¹s on,
I¹m in the mood to love you all night long,
cause baby it's on till the brake of the dawn
and I¹ll give you loving till you tell me ³no more².
It's a Sweet Thang
I¹ll give you some of this Sweet Thang
Sweet Thang, it¹s such a Sweet Thang,
sweeter than a Honeydew and you never be the same,
Sweet Thang, my lovin¹ is Sweet Thang.
Now I¹m a show you things you never seen before,
take you shopping at the spot and buy the whole damn
floor,
Christian Dior, Versace by the ounce.
I¹m a buy you things you can¹t even pronounce,
jump in my cream Bentley, girl and let¹s bounce
Dam-Da-Da makes more chedder than you can count or
we can chill if you will and just stay still
out my Masion over looking all of Beverly Hills
outrapanour, player with big boom E-Class Mercedes,
Villa in Can Coon
never hesitate to drop you in the latest thangs,
Crocodile Boots, Armani Suits, know what I mean?
Dive with the willies puffin on Cuban Phillys
laced in Cartagin Silks, now can you feel me?
Tell your girl Friend, who be working,
SKI the Dam-Da-Da you found your Sweet Thang.
I¹ll give you some of this Sweet Thang
Sweet Thang it¹s such a Sweet Thang,
sweeter than a Honeydew and you never be the same,
Sweet Thang, my lovin¹ is Sweet Thang.
Hey lady don¹t wanna waste your time,
just wanna bump and grind, now would that be fine,
hey sugar, Marvin Gaye to set the mood,
I hope that you feel it too, let me show you what to
Step in my room, cause lady it¹s on.
I¹m in the mood to love you all night long,
cause baby it¹s on, till the brake of the dawn
and I¹ll give you lovin till you tell me ³no more²

Is Selena Gomez more than just a bunch of hot hair?
