This year’s 4-day residential symposium will focus on Austen's Emma,
in honor of the novel's two-hundredth anniversary. Participants will
have the opportunity to hear expert speakers and participate in
discussion groups each day, as well as join in a Regency ball, partake
in an English tea, and
visit special exhibits tailored to the conference. The discussions will
consider the novel in its historical context as well as its many
afterlives in fiction and film. The Jane Austen Summer Program (JASP) is
designed to appeal to established scholars, high
school teachers, graduate students, and undergraduate students—anyone
with a passion for all things Austen is welcome and encouraged to
attend!
