Uses of Translation: The Global Jane Austen

Abstract

In a small room at the Jane Austen’s House Museum in Chawton, there is a growing collection of secondary material on Austen’s life and works. In the early nineteenth century, the space was designated as ‘offices’; until 2009 (and the major renovations following the successful heritage lottery bid discussed in Chapter 7 in this collection) the room served as the museum shop. Visitors would leave Austen’s home by crossing this space, which overlooks the small courtyard and the outbuildings. Now the room has a clearly defined role, one that recognizes that books are one of the main reasons for any Austen-related pilgrimage. It is referred to as the reading room, and any visitor who would like to consult works in the collection can study there. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
