In September 2022, a young Kurdish woman, Mahsa Jîna Amini, died after being beaten by police officers who arrested her for not adhering to the Islamic Republic's dress code. Her death galvanized thousands of Iranians—mostly women—who took to the streets in one of the country's largest uprisings in decades: the Woman, Life, Freedom movement. In this episode, Jacke talks to Nilo Tabrizy about her experience co-authoring the book For the Sun After Long Nights: The Story of Iran's Women-Led Uprising, which tells the searing, courageous story of what it meant for two journalists to cover these deeply personal events. PLUS Dr. Sharmila Sen, Editorial Director of Harvard University Press, who previously joined us for a discussion of the Murtry Classical Library of India series and the anthology Ten Indian Classics, stops by to discuss her choice for the last book she will ever read.

Regency Era heiresses are a part of most Jane Austen novels, as women with fortunes men want to marry into. Some of these fortunes were from old family money, but many of them were new wealth founded on human exploitation on Caribbean plantations. Our guest, Dr. Miranda Kaufmann, reveals what she's found in her research about heiresses as well as the stories of the people the heiresses enslaved.

Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen chapter 13, narrated by Isaac BirchallSubscribe on YT or Join the Book Club on Patreon and support me as an independent creator :D⁠https://ko-fi.com/theessentialreads⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfOFfvo05ElM96CmfsGsu3g/joinSummary:Mr. Willoughby, the girls and the Middleton family are all gathered at the Park to go to Whitwell, but nothing went to plan. Colonel Brandon, who was to be their guide, received a shocking letter, and announced that he needs to leave for town immediately. Mrs. Jennings pries into him and begs to know what the letter says. He divulges no information however and takes leave. The party is greatly upset by their change of plans, and Lord Middleton tries to cheer them up by suggesting they ride in the carriages and have a ball in the evening. While riding, Willoughby, and Marianne snuck off somewhere… At the dinner table, Mrs. Jennings tells Marianne that she knows where she and Willoughby went that day. They apparently went to Willoughby's aunt's house. Elinor later reprimands her sister for this, but understands too, and listens to her sister when she details some of the rooms to her.SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations. Love is not easy however, and Elinor finds her sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.

Elinor and Edward's relationship is growing closer, but they are not actually engaged, much to Marianne's surprise. In fact, Elinor herself isn't sure of the degree of Edward's attachment to her. But the attachment is enough to catch the eye of Fanny Dashwood, who makes it clear in no uncertain terms that her family has high hopes for her brother's marriage - hopes that don't include Elinor Dashwood. Luckily for them, a letter has just arrived from one of Mrs. Dashwood's relations, inviting them to take up residence at his cottage in Devonshire. It's the perfect time for the family to make a move, and as they do, let their story move you along into a night of soft and relaxing sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Costume designer Mona May dives into the iconic fashion of *Clueless*, revealing how she transformed Jane Austen's *Emma* into a high-fashion, colorful aesthetic for 1990s Beverly Hills high schoolers, moving past the era's grunge trend with plaids, Mary Janes, and berets. She discusses her continued work with cast members like Alicia Silverstone and shares her concerns about the struggles facing the film industry in Los Angeles as productions increasingly move to places like Bulgaria and Ireland for financial incentives. Finally, Mona May explains how her Polish-German background and her birthplace in India, where she first experienced a world of bright color, profoundly shaped her signature design style and love for using color in her films.Show Clip from The Paris Chong Show with Mona Mayhttps://youtu.be/ggFe8n7f5Eohttps://www.theparischongshow.com

Elinor shuts down the idea, saying that Marianne didn't think this through and didn't think that they would have to build a stable and hire a servant to ride it. Marianne eventually understands and tells this to Willoughby, where he declares that the horse is already hers, and when she is ready to receive it, she can collect it from his estate, whenever that may be. Mrs. Dashwood overheard this conversation and confirms to herself that the two must be engaged. Margret also comes on the following day to Elinor and tells her that she saw Willoughby take a lock of Marianne's hair and put it in his pocketbook. One evening at the Park, Margret was attacked by Mrs. Jennings for the name of the man who owns Elinor's heart, and though Marianne tries to get her sister to be quiet, Margret lets more slip than necessary. Thankfully the conversation is shut down by Lady Middleton, and Willoughby.SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations. Love is not easy however, and Elinor finds her sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.

When Hamlet, in his famous soliloquy, pondered the "dread of something after death, / the undiscovered country," he noted that such thoughts "puzzles the will." (Earlier editions of the play had this as a "hope of something after death" that "puzzles the brain." What's the significance for an Elizabethan writer (and audience) of the change from hope to dread? And from brain to will? In this episode, Jacke talks to Douglas Clark (The Will in English Renaissance Drama) about the moments of willing and will-making in English Renaissance drama, and how those moments play a crucial role in the depiction of selfhood, sin, sociality, and succession. PLUS Jacke takes a look at #7 on the list of the Greatest Books of All Time.

Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen chapter 10, narrated by Isaac BirchallSubscribe on YT or Join the Book Club on Patreon and support me as an independent creator :D⁠https://ko-fi.com/theessentialreads⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfOFfvo05ElM96CmfsGsu3g/join⁠Summary:When Marianne was recovered, the private balls at the park began. All of the events taking place were designed to bring Marianne and Willoughby closer. This worked like a treat, and Elinor even ventured to tell her sister that they should not be so overtly attached, but this is dismissed by the two of them. They spent every evening together, to the delight and humour of everyone else, causing Marianne to soon become content with her new life away from Norland.Elinor, however, is enjoying Barton far less. She is feeling alone, and in want of real conversation. Mrs. Jennings, and Lady Middleton, are not great conversationalists. Colonel Brandon is the only person with whom she can converse freely, but he is sadly still attached to Marianne… Elinor starts to suspect that he has previously been hurt in love, and she starts to sympathize with him. SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations. Love is not easy however, and Elinor finds her sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.

What did Jane Austen say? It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a student in pursuit of a UW-Madison education, must be in want of affordable housing. Or something like that. As most Madisonians know, the rent is getting too damn high in our little hamlet and finding affordable housing can feel near impossible. When did it get so bad, and what are students doing to get by? Kacie Lucchini Butcher, director of the Rebecca M. Blank Center for Campus History and co-host of the Reorientation podcast, joins host Bianca Martin to talk about the new season of Reorientation, which tackles the complicated history of UW campus housing.

Katherine Mansfield's writing, said Virginia Woolf, "was the only writing I was ever jealous of." In this episode, Jacke talks to author Gerri Kimber about Katherine Mansfield: A Hidden Life, which explores the life and work of one of literary modernism's most significant writers. PLUS Jacke takes a look at the unusual friendship between poet W.H. Auden and the sex worker whom he hired, was robbed by, and befriended. And Kenneth Sacks (Emerson's Civil Wars: Spirit and Society in the Age of Abolition) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.

The Dashwoods remain at Norland while they search for a place that will fit their new financial situation. Living with Fanny Dashwood is not pleasant, but there is one bright spot: her brother, Edward Ferrars. He has been staying with the family at Norland, and by all accounts to be forming an attachment with Elinor - she esteems him, which is high praise. Marianne finds Edward lacking in his understanding of art and literature, but their mother is pleased that her eldest daughter has found love. As Elinor and Edward's attachment grows, let it help you relax as you drift into another night of restorative slumber.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Marianne is very pretty and has seems to have captured the heart of Willoughby already. They spend so much time talking together, and seem to agree on almost every point, so much so that they soon start to speak informally to each other. Elinor teases Marianne, that they will soon have exhausted every topic of conversation. Willoughby is everything that Marianne has ever wanted in a man, and Mrs. Dashwood starts to believe that Willoughby will soon propose to her daughter. Elinor, at the Park, starts to pity Colonel Brandon, and after some hints at past slights, she starts to talk to him kindly, regardless of the jests from Willoughby and Marianne.

After a tantalizing slip of information from Lydia, Elizabeth has been eager to learn why Mr. Darcy was at the Wickhams' wedding, and a letter from her aunt Gardiner has arrived that answers all her questions and more. It turns out that Mr. Darcy was the one who arranged the entire thing, from finding Lydia and Wickham in London, to paying off Wickham's debts to secure the marriage. It's more than Elizabeth can handle, but she does not want to allow herself to hope too much, lest she be disappointed. At least she can sleep a little easier having learned the truth, and you will too, as our latest Friday Favorites carries you away into a night of sweet and gentle sleep. -----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Dmitry Ivanovich Khvostov (1757-1835) might be the worst poet who ever lived. Pathologically prolific and delusional dedicated to a craft for which he had no talent, he continued to write and publish his poetry despite the pleadings of friends, loved ones, critics, and the public. In this episode, Jacke talks to author Ilya Vinitsky and translator James H. McGavran III about their book, The Graphomaniac: A Literary-Historical Discussion of Dmitry Khvostov as a Reprieve from Teaching, the Vanity of Worldly Affairs, and Melancholy Reflections Brought On by the Loss of a Front Tooth, Together with the Current Cultural and Political Situation. PLUS Stephanie Sandler (The Freest Speech in Russia: Poetry Unbound, 1989-2022), an expert in Russia's Golden Age of literature and Russian contemporary poetry, stops by to discuss her choice for the last book she will ever read.

We definitely have a hope became reality hangover this morning, but we also have a very fun episode for you today! We're talking romance shorts -- not novellas, not short novels, but actual short stories under 15,000 words (or about 50 pages). We talk about why this is such a difficult goal to hit, about why romance lends itself to longer formats, and about why short fiction is a really great way to keep reading when things feel chaotic.We also chat about Sarah's new short story, a part of the Ladies in Waiting anthology, out this week and providing minor characters from Jane Austen their own happily ever afters. Sarah is joined by romance greats Diana Quincy, Nikki Payne and Eloisa James, among others. Get the collection at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Apple Books or wherever you get your books.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that Jane Austen is one of England's best-loved and most-read authors. This year is the 250th anniversary of her birth in December 1775, and her works are as popular as they ever were. But her own story is far less known than that of her heroines. So we're here today to learn all about Jane Austen. Our guest this week is Paula Byrne, one of the world's leading Jane Austen experts. Paula's new book, Six Weeks by the Sea, is a novel that imagines Jane Austen in love herself. Buy a copy of Paula's new novel Six Weeks By The Sea (affiliate link).

Sir John Middleton called on them every day for the first fortnight and urged them to mix with the people in the area. The girls go on many walks and have fallen in love with the country about them. One morning, Margret and Marianne, in spite of the rain, go on a walk together on the hills. Though the clouds were originally keeping away from their path, they soon closed in on top of them and showered their heads. The girls decided to run back to the cottage, but Marianne tripped and fell down the hill. A gentleman was walking nearby and came to her assistance and carried her down the hill to Barton cottage. The man exchanged some polite pleasantries with the family and then left. In the afternoon, Sir John Middleton came by, and the girls flooded him with questions about the handsome stranger, called Willoughby. Sir John seemed to be shocked that he was in the area but went on to explain that no better man existed, and after mentioning that he danced all night at a ball held last year, Marianne became attached. SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations. Love is not easy however, and Elinor finds her sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.

Costume designer Mona May joins Paris Chong to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the iconic film "Clueless." Mona shares insights into her creative process for the movie's memorable fashion, including Alicia Silverstone's 63 costume changes, and how the script, based on Jane Austen's "Emma," influenced the high-fashion yet youthful looks. She discusses reinventing 90s grunge with plaids, Mary Janes, and berets, drawing inspiration from runways while adapting for 16-year-olds.Mona also talks about her continued work with "Clueless" stars like Alicia Silverstone and Elisa Donovan, and the challenges facing the film industry in Los Angeles, with many productions moving overseas for cost-saving measures. She recounts her experiences working in places like Bulgaria and Berlin, highlighting the difficulties of sourcing materials and adapting to different working styles. Mona expresses her passion for color, influenced by her birth in India, and how it translates into her signature costume designs for films like "Enchanted" and "Romy and Michele's High School Reunion."The conversation also touches on Mona's recently published book about "Clueless," her upcoming book tour and master classes at film schools, and her dream costume design projects (like "Barbie"). She offers advice to aspiring costume designers, emphasizing passion, flexibility with travel, and the importance of mentoring. Mona also discusses the significance of costume design in character development and the current state of the industry.Show Notes:www.theparischongshow.com/episodes/mona-may-costume-designer-of-clueless-and-your-other-favorites-moviesChapter Times:(00:00:00) Intro(00:00:42) Mona May / 30years of Clueless(00:03:49) Actor's Request(00:07:39) Romy & Michele's(00:08:24) Book Tour(00:13:00) Teaching at SCAD(00:14:31) Dream Costume Job(00:17:37) Sourcing Materials(00:19:29) Awards(00:24:20) Advice for Costume Designers(00:28:16) Outro

Thanks for listening. Do text us with topic ideas or reactions.There's trend for involving Jane Austen in murder. What would she make of that?

In the spring of 2022, Jacke dropped everything to plummet into one of the strangest poems he had ever read, "Goblin Market" by Christina Rossetti (1830-1894). The result was a two-part episode that never quite found its home. In this special Halloween episode, we've combined the best parts of both of those episodes to bring you the full story of an idiosyncratic Victorian poet and her bizarre tale of two sisters seduced by the fruits being sold by a pack of river goblins.
