Orgoglio e pregiudizio.
Due veleni interiori.
Forme di difesa, spesso frutto di paure che nascono quando si vivono situazioni inquinate dalle ambiguità.
Interscambiabili tra i soggetti. Superabili.
Antidoto: umiltà.
Per ammettere i propri errori.
Per vuotare il sacco.
Per interessarsi alla conoscenza diretta dei fatti.
È un lavoro, reciproco.
Ti va di farlo?

La lettura ti insegna a trovare la strada che hai dentro diradando la nebbia che c’è fuori.

My friend #ChatGPT reliably informs me that there was an unpublished sequel to the #JaneAusten #novel #PrideAndPrejudice entitled "Hansom Driver".

It sees Mr Collins leading a double-life as a cabbie, in order to earn the trust of a child-prostitute with whom he has become enamoured - the climax being a pistol-duel with her pimp - and him celebrating a monsoon coming to clear the cobbles of horse-dung.

A dramatisation of this led to #JohnWilkesBooth killing Lincoln to impress #LouisaMayAlcott

Maureen O'Sullivan in a stunning portrait, published in the September 1940 issue of Motion Picture Magazine.

Original caption: "Having done her bit in Pride and Prejudice, Maureen has joined hubby Johnny Farrow, who is doing his bit for His Majesty's Navy, somewhere in Canada"

Sorry to hear that the composer Carl Davis has died. He wrote a lot of scores silent movie scores, also "The French Lieutenant's Woman", and "Scandal".

On television, he scored "The Naked Civil Servant", "Up Pompeii!", and the 1995 "Pride and Prejudice".

Carl Davis was 86; he is survived by wife Jean Boht, two daughters, three granddaughters.

Mark Twain absolutely hated Jane Austen. He once wrote to a friend: ‘Pride and Prejudice? Pride and Prejushit more like.’

Finished my regular rereading of Pride and Prejudice. One of the things that strikes me is how often Austen simply describes a scene or conversation rather than give it to us in actual dialogue or detail. She also will simply describe a person's personality - breaking that 'show don't tell' rule. All this is to say that if you are good, the rules are different. The trouble is that there are very few writers as good as she is.

At my « tender » age ... I thought it was time to approach Jane #Austen. Finally. By book and by movie. Here we go. Wish me luck. 😉 #PrideandPrejudice

Hahahahahahahhahahaa Facebook got mad at me for sharing a Sparknotes valentine quoting Mr. Darcy: "you're tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me."

Happy Valentine's Day, folks, especially all y'all Jane Austen fans ❤️

On this day in 1813, Jane Austen's 📖'Pride and Prejudice' was published.

Austen didn’t put her name on her novels, and would only say they were “By a Lady.” The title page of Pride and Prejudice said, “by the author of Sense and Sensibility.” It wasn’t until after her death that her brother revealed her name to the public.

Jane Austen wrote Pride and Prejudice in ten months during 1796-7, she later did some editing before publication in 1813. Rereading the book, I was struck by the mention of a sash, very much a 1790s fashion rather than Regency, and that inspired us to make the #historyofdress film and set it in the year the book was written rather than published.
