The sound cuts out at 17:03

I reread P&P every so many years. Its a warm cup of tea and blanket.

It’s also that mrs Elton referred to mrs Weston as ladylike because she used to be Emma’s governess.

Well I wouldn't want to lose my title...

I thought the season started when parliament reconvened after Christmas?

Did the sound just drop out?

This is great!❤❤

My favorite Brönte

Her poor nerves!

It really shows the desperation of their situation

Ellie do you think Charlotte was pregnant at the end of pride and prejudice?! My friend and I have been trying to figure out what Mr. Collin’s was referring to in his last letter about a “young olive branch”

I’m glad I didn’t live in the regency- I was HORRIBLE at this stuff in middle school!

What do you mean years? I just found out about it this year 😢

I came here just to comment while I watch on my TV. Ellie, I love this so much! For one thing, I haven't found a good audio book version of P&P. For another thing, the notes you're sharing are like food for my brain. I really appreciate and enjoy it. I've thought about starting a podcast about Austen's books and I love the intellectual side of it. You read beautifully!

1995 sin duda es mi preferida, la de 2005 es un panfleto romántico destinado a un público adolescente sin idea de usos y costumbres de otros siglos y a los que le da pereza leer

Song name: The forsaken waltz

Oh WOW! I was describing my salt cravings/extreme low blood pressure/high water intake to a friend yesterday and she mentioned I might have POTS. One thing she asked me about was the sudden increase in heart rate and when I thought about it, I described it as “sometimes it’s like my body get a surge of anxiety and I am looking around to see why I feel sudden anxiety.” I can’t believe you just said that (around 22:00)! Very interesting, thanks for all the information you shared along with your journey to healing.

I'm in year 4 of trying to figure out what's going on, but next Monday I have a 3h clinical assessment with an interdisciplinary specialist service! Fingers crossed this is when I finally get some answers 🥹

Horses suckkkkkkkk. She’s so real for that.

1995 is the Best simple because of Darcy's smouldering.

12, with parents consent. Almost did that in 1987, Georgia. I was going to enroll her at the school I worked at, in California, just to cause a scandal. It would have been epic.

It is 61 chapters

I never read Emma and hadn’t seen an Emma adaptation other than Clueless when I saw this movie, so my opinion means nothing. That said, I really love this movie and I’ve seen it close to 10 times, and I rarely ever watch movies since the explosion of streaming services 10 years ago. Now I’ve seen a couple Emmas. I didn’t love the ones from the 90’s. I just watched that BBC 2007 one last night and it was definitely more detailed, so I really liked it for that.

I don’t understand why the scene gets cut 🤔

Loving this!!!

Was incredibly disappointed in the 2005 version. It seemed like Knightly played Elizabeth as a pouty, slovenly brat. And the wild scenes outside were about as close to Austen as a NY stripper. Ugh.

A lovely video, thank you 💛 It includes literature, psychology and good deal of common sense.

This was an excellent and informative video! One of my favorite books of all time is Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, and Mrs. Radcliffe is referenced a few times within it. Until now, I’d never properly understood the reference.

Yay, chapter 2! Another great installment. And I really enjoyed the commentary. Austen was probably wise in being vague. Although, she could have originally described him and during the editorial process it was taken out; I thought she said in a letter P&P was "lopt and cropt" for publication. :) I always wondered what she took out.

I think a lot of these leading ladies in Austen's books just don't have the options to meet many men, and even then they were barely allowed to get to know these men. Elinor met Edward and boom best option and she clung to that because what other men were there? Marianne def had more time to meet some other men as she was only 16-17, but after having her heart broken so horribly, I think she made a hasty decision in marrying Brandon, seeing the comfortable life he could give her. Both were weird matches in my opinion.

What's with Jane Austen and the name "Elliot" lol

I enjoy all your videos.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I married a guy who's totally Henry Tilney ❤ I got to know Northanger Abbey after falling for my now husband. Before I met my husband I always was into guys who were absolutely Darcy. Today I am so grateful I met my Tilney. 🫶🏻🥰

Marriage is not a transactional relationship it’s love not a man nor a woman digging for gold as we say.

This is a dream come true. Thank youuu

Ellie, you keep being awesome, cause you are awesome!

Yeah. Chapter 2. I didn't realize the chapters are so short. And thank you so much for interpreting what is going on in the chapter. Not that I would love to also rewatch your older videos.

Does the sound cut out in Masquerades vs Costume Balls section for anyone else?

Hi Ellie, you're bringing back memories of how short these Ch were. I like Jane's dialog as she gives you just enough to bring you in. Im with your commentor in the Live chat...Mr Darcy's 💓 description was just right. You did a rather impressive Live!😍 Seems you're getting the hang of it.🤩🤩🤩

I love the dialog. As for character descriptions, I believe JA was right to keep them vague. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, no matter the time period. Also, when you must envision the characters for yourself, you are really investing more in the book than just simply reading a story.

Hi Ellie, the notice for Ch2 popped up, today. So, I had to go back & listen to Ch1 before Ch2. Im glad the cuts were clarified in the comments as I thought it was my phone. I enjoyed your read and found your voice very soothing. In this Ch, Mrs Bennet stood out with her pride in beauty, lack of independence & revealing in hearsay. Previously, I skimmed over her character not paying it much attention. The cover of the book truly is beautiful. Does it have pictures?

I read P&P every winter, but opted for Persuasion this last time around. I appreciate being able to listen to you read it.

Ok but honestly Knightley is too good for Emma but loves her anyway so it's fine

It's SO LOVELY to see you again, Ellie!!! I've missed watching your videos (I hope you're doing well). If you're up for it at some point, can you *please* to an analysis video of Persuasion and Anne/Wentworth's love story? I'd love to hear your take on my faves lol!

no Beyond Evil???

61 chapters total 😊 love your character accents!

I have that copy too ❤

HI ELLIE!!!! 👋🏻 Missed you! I hope you are in good health. (But no really i actually do) Thanks for the wonderful video! Love ya sis! ❤

The same person who plays Chauvelin plays the anti hero, Magneto, in the X man films. Being Hungarian, Orczy throws in some gratuitous anti semitism in the book.
