Re: Janet Todd's Living with Austen


 

Yes it is.It shows the family were a literary bunch. Letters &
documents also survive when there is a huge house, with an attic that
no one is using. James Austen regarded himself as a poet & writer;
George, the father, was a scholar with a private library pof his own,
the mother wrote social verse ...

It is surprising that so many letters survived. Jane's brothers were not
settled in one place. Even Henry moved around. Letters have a better
chance of survival when both parties stayed in one place.
