Online Events Calendar
One of the (few) bright spots of the pandemic is the number of virtual programs — talks, exhibits, tours, discussions, and more — available online, removing the requirement of in-person attendance. The Jane Austen/Regency world has a growing number of online events of interest to our community. We’ve set up this Online Event Calendar to help you find some of them. Please check the listings and be sure to convert the event times (which are local to the organizers) to your location. To submit an event for the calendar, email news@jasnanorcal.org Note: JASNA regional events are also listed on the organization’s web site: http://jasna.org/conferences-events/

Tales of Terror! Gothic Stories by the Virtual Fireside
October 30, 2020 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm GMT
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.
