Extractions: Proceedings: self-deception PROCEEDINGS: Welcome to JASBA, The Jane Austen Society of Buenos Aires, Argentina, a Latin American association for those who wish to share their appreciation of Jane Austen. THE HISTORY OF "THE JANE AUSTEN SOCIETY" It all began quite quietly and simply -as the nice things in this world usually do- about sixty years ago, in 1940, to be precise. Dorothy Darnell had the bright idea and it caught on. It has today about twelve branches and close on two thousand members. Then, in 1975, Canadian-born Joan Austen-Leigh, great-great-great-niece of the novelist, met Jack Grey of New York, a fellow Janeite, at Chawton, and they decided to launch JASNA, the Jane Austen Society of North America, covering the U.S.A. and Canada. JASNA has today between four and five thousand members. JASNA gave birth to JASA, the Jane Austen Society of Australia, with independent centres at Sidney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Nora Walker founded JASA in about 1990. They have today about four hundred and fifty members. There are also Jane Austen Societies in Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Hawaii, Malaysia and Central Africa. None in China, India or Japan, which surprises me because people there are great readers and well up in European literature. Jane Austen would appeal, I am sure, to the oriental mind. That film we all liked so much, The Remains of the Day, was based upon a novel about English life by a Japanese. Jane Austen would have loved the book, and the author, I am sure, is consciously or unconsciously a Janeite.

Extractions: Buy one from zShops for: Average review score: One of the best book ever written. I read this book for the first time in high school and I feel like I owe it to my english teacher for introducing me to the world of Jane Austen. Pride and Predjudice is hands down my favorite novel of hers. I am so impressed with the superbly written dialogue and consistency of all the characters. While reading it, my mind became enraptured with the story and I felt like I was actually a bystander in the book observing Lizzy's and Darcy's relationship and how beautifully their feelings for each other evolved throughout the story. This book is definately appropriate for the mature reader as well as the young at heart. Thumbs up to the great Jane Austen! Completely Absorbing Pride and Prejudice is a story I could easily read once a year. Jane Austen's characters are expertly drawn; they entertain and enchant. I simply could not put this book down, and when it was over I longed for it to continue!

Extractions: Technical Stuff: I shot the pictures casually, with a 35mm camera and various lenses, then had the film processed and scanned onto CD's. I next ran the images I wanted to use through Adobe Photoshop, making various modifications. Sometimes the thumbnails don't quite match the larger versions because I didn't work over the small ones. The images are optimized for my computer systems and monitors. If they look bad on yours, I'm sorry. You can download them and do your own photoshop work.
