Assembly & Diversity in Jane Austen’s Bath

16 September @ 4:00 pm 5:00 pm

Jane Austen

Jane Austen’s Bath was a city of spectacle, sociability, and surprising diversity. This talk, with Dr Tim Moore, explores the vibrant world of Georgian Bath and the radical inclusivity of its world-famous assemblies. From fashionable elites to cross-dressing non-conformists, and from plantation owners to abolitionists and people of colour, discover the melting pot of identity that made up Georgian Bath, and how it shaped the world that Austen knew and wrote about.
