Tristan and the Classics | JANE AUSTEN at Home Book Tag @tristanandtheclassics6538 | Uploaded July 2021 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
Jane Austen at home book tag is a 10 question video presentation based upon quotes from Jane Austen novels. I will present my answers to these questions based upon my classic books.
Below are the questions. Leave your own answers in the comments below and check out what others have said.
1. Mansfield Park: “The grandeur of the house astonished, but could not console her.” – Name a grand book (that may or may not have been difficult to read!)
2. Barton Cottage (Sense & Sensibility): “In comparison of Norland, it was poor and small indeed!” Name a book about a household in difficult circumstances.
3. Hartfield (Emma): “I believe few married women are half as much mistress of their husband’s house as I am of Hartfield.” – Name a book that you feel entirely the mistress (or master) of.
4. Fullerton (Northanger Abbey): “Now, there was nothing so charming to her imagination as the unpretending comfort of a well-connected parsonage, something like Fullerton.” Name a book containing a contented family.
5. Rosings Park (Pride & Prejudice): “He declared he might almost have supposed himself in the small summer breakfast parlour at Rosings; a comparison that did not at first convey much gratification.” Name a book that other books are constantly being compared to.
6. HMS Sloop the Asp (Persuasion): “Quite worn out and broken up. I was the last man who commanded her.” Show us a book that is looking the worse for wear.
7. Northanger Abbey: “An abbey! Yes, it was delightful to be really in an abbey! But she doubted, as she looked round the room, whether anything within her observation would have given her the consciousness.” Name a book that wasn’t as creepy or dramatic as you thought it would be.
8. Portsmouth (Mansfield Park): “The smallness of the house and thinness of the walls brought everything so close to her, that, added to the fatigue of her journey, and all her recent agitation, she hardly knew how to bear it.” Name a book that disappointed you when you revisited it.
9. Kellynch Hall (Persuasion): “Principal seat: Kellynch Hall, in the county of Somerset.” Name a book from your “ancestral home.”
10. Pemberley (Pride & Prejudice): “They had now entered a beautiful walk by the side of the water, and every step was bringing forward a nobler fall of ground.” Name a book that you are ready to dive into.
