- **Event Name**: Talk: The Nature of Persuasion 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 21 Sep, 2025 at 01:45 pm – Sun, 21 Sep, 2025 at 02:45 pm
- **Event Description**: Join Professor Michael Greaney for an exploration of Jane Austen’s subtle evocations of the natural world in her beautiful, autumnal novel Persuasion. 

Charlotte Brontë famously grumbles that there is “no open country – no fresh air” in Jane Austen’s fiction. Is there any truth in this allegation? And would it even matter if Austen were primarily a novelist of the drawing-room rather than the windswept moor?

This talk will pose these questions in relation to Austen’s last full-length work of fiction, Persuasion, an autumnal novel whose subtle evocations of the natural world resonate with the Romantic poetry of Wordsworth and Keats.
