Regency Manners and Customs | Nancy Lawrence

https://nancylawrenceregency.com/category/regency-manners-and-customs

Category Archives: Regency Manners and Customs. When a Prince Turns 21. August 12, 2015. The Prince Regent, about 1790. To a large extent, turning 21 was just as much of a landmark event during the Regency as it is today. It was a milestone that marked an age when a person became truly independent and was old enough to make life-altering decisions. That was true, for the most part, for the Prince of Wales. Queen Charlotte with her two eldest sons. The Princess Dowager of Wales. The Duke of Devonshire.

Regency Dress | Nancy Lawrence

https://nancylawrenceregency.com/category/regency-dress

Category Archives: Regency Dress. 8220;I like a red coat myself.”. August 10, 2015. There’s something about a man in uniform. At least, that’s what the Bennet women believed. And even though Elizabeth Bennet decried her sisters’ obsessions with men in uniform, there was a time when she liked Mr. Wickham in his regimentals more than any other man of her acquaintance. Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington, in 1815 just before he defeated Napoleon at Waterloo. Ignorant, idle, and vain. While there was an...

Mr Darcy and “That Shirt”. August 1, 2016. When it comes to Pride and Prejudice on the big and small screens, I’ve watched every available version, from Lizzie Bennet’s Diary to the this year’s Zombies to the 1940 Hollywood film starring Laurence Olivier and Greer Garson. Of all the different interpretations, the 1995 BBC series starring Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth remains my favorite. What makes that version different from all others? In fact, that Regency wet tee-shirt moment has made something of a ...

Austen in August | Nancy Lawrence

https://nancylawrenceregency.com/2015/08/01/austen-in-august

I’m totally buggin’! Austen in August – Part 2 →. August 1, 2015. It’s August and that means two things:. It’s time to start muttering, No way, is it really August already? If you’re like me, you don’t really need a reason to read a bit of Jane. I keep a copy of my favorite Jane Austen novels on the shelf beside by desk so I can read a chapter or two whenever the mood strikes me. My much-read copy of S&S needs a ribbon to hold the cover in place. For me, this is the motivation I need to reread. You are c...

Are You Watching Wolf Hall? | Nancy Lawrence

https://nancylawrenceregency.com/2015/05/14/are-you-watching-wolf-hall

Welcome, Princess Charlotte! I’m totally buggin’! Are You Watching Wolf Hall? May 14, 2015. Wolf Hall is my new favorite show. It chronicles Thomas Cromwell’s rise to power in the court of Henry VIII. However, in Wolf Hall, Damien Lewis plays Henry VIII, and he’s a much better physical match, helping make his portrayal much more believable. I’m addicted to this series about Henry VIII and his wives, told through the eyes of Thomas Cromwell. Lucky for me (and everyone else interested in the show). Notify ...

Review and Giveaway: Particular Intentions by L. L. Diamond – Every Savage Can Dance

https://everysavagecandance.wordpress.com/2016/11/21/review-and-giveaway-particular-intentions-by-l-l-diamond

Every Savage Can Dance. My little Austenesque corner of the 'net. Review and Giveaway: Particular Intentions by L. L. Diamond. November 21, 2016. November 21, 2016. By LL Diamond, staying up two nights to read: first to start it and again to finish it. That’s how compelling I found the story and the writing; I had to know what happened next! Every JAFF variation I’ve seen has its Darcy-and-Lizzy happily-ever-after ending. As does. Perhaps this would be a good juncture to interject my own opinion of Eliza...
