Sex, Money and Power in Death: Obituaries in the Time of Jane Austen
Newspaper obituaries were well established by the time of Jane Austen. Yet then (as now) they were generally afforded to the rich, the powerful and the male of the species. Austen was none of these; thus notifications of her death were sparse in content. This session compares those that did appear with other obituaries of her time, in particular the widespread lamenting of the death of Princess Charlotte, who died a few months after Austen.
Tim Bullamore, Editor of Jane Austen’s Regency World Magazine, is also an award-winning obituary writer who has contributed to major British newspapers as well as undertaking research into the genre.
