From stately mansions to medieval cities, many of England's most historic places are uniquely associated with Jane Austen.

Drawing on her descriptive letters, discover Austen's insights about the history, culture, important buildings, lifestyles, and treasures of these and the many other places that she encountered on her travels.
Taught by Lorella Brocklesby, adjunct professor of humanities, cultural historian.
