It took me like a month but i finally finished reading The Regency Revolution. It was really great too! The Regency era is my fave period of history so a whole book on it was fascinating. It explored politics, society and culture and referenced a bunch of my fave historical figures like all the romantic poets, jane austen, beau brummell, mary shelley, and of cause the prince regent himself.

I'd defs recommend it, although at points it did feel very name drop-y lmao like some patches felt a little hard to understand because there were so many names being dropped all at once. But otherwise hugely fun and interesting!

Ignore all my highlights LOL

Extracted from The Regency Revolution: Jane Austen, Napoleon, Lord Byron and the Making of the Modern World, by Dr Robert Morrison (2019). There’s more of what he says about Jane Austen and the world that formed the background to her work, but I thought I’d post up his analysis of Darcy’s (in)famous first proposal to Elizabeth in Pride and Prejudice for anyone who was interested!

Pride and Prejudice is the finest love story of the era---perhaps of any era---and it continues to exert an enormous hold on the popular imagination, for to "fall in love" today still means in many ways to fall in love like Elizabeth and Darcy. Yet their story is very different from what we might expect. Austen does not describe them as caught up in heated embraces or secretive trysts in the manner of so many romances both before hers and since. Instead, she conveys their passion for each other in fleeting moments that fall well within the confines of correctness but that carry a sexual charge that is all the more potent for being intermittent and so understated. Like Darcy and Elizabeth themselves, Austen makes us wait, interpret, agonise, and wonder. Nonetheless, their sexual attraction to each other is clear when they stare across the room, or touch hands, or dance, or even verbally spar, and eventually it proves overwhelming, both to them and to us.
