Dr. Colón returns to discuss Mansfield Park

June 14th, 10am via Zoom only
 

For a third time, Dr. Christine Colón of Wheaton College will speak to our chapter—this time about the challenges of navigating the topic of slavery in Austen's third novel Mansfield Park.

 

It doesn't matter if you have read the novel multiple times or if you haven't gotten around to it yet, Dr. Colón will (as always) enthrall us with her vast research, perceptive insights, and actually funny English professor quips!

​

Please RSVP by jasna.alabama@gmail.com in order to receive the Zoom meeting link.

 

We look forward to seeing you and be sure to bring your questions and favorite Jane Austen teacup/mug to show off to the camera!
