The Annual General Meeting of the Jane Austen Society of North America was held October 21-23, 2016, in Washington DC. JASNA’s 2016 AGM celebrated the bicentennial of the publication of Jane Austen’s masterpiece Emma. The conference theme “Emma at 200: ‘No One But Herself’” echoed Jane Austen’s statement, “I am going to take a heroine whom no one but myself will much like”, as well as Emma’s realization that “Mr Knightley must marry no one but herself!”
Included in the sessions offered was a visit to the Will and Jane exhibit at the Folger Shakespeare Library.
