• Persuasion Cancelled Chapters

  Today, we're covering the original ending of Persuasion, otherwise known as the "Cancelled Chapters." The original Volume 2, Chapter 10 replaces the Chapters 10 and 11 that we ended up with, and the original Chapter 11 is essentially the same as our Chapter 12. The Cancelled Chapters were published posthumously. Anne has just found out Elliot's true nature when she runs into Admiral Croft, who locks her in a room with Wentworth after begging Wentworth to talk to Anne on his behalf. Wentworth reveals that the Crofts are concerned that Anne and Elliot are going to take Kellynch back when they get married. Anne tells him that she and Elliot are not going to be married, and the rest is history. Read the Cancelled Chapters here.Glossary of Terms and Phrases: mantua-maker (n): a dressmaker who created fitted women's clothing before mass-produced clothing.Glossary of People, Places, and Things: Better Call Saul, Breaking BadPatron Study Questions:Avi: Why do you think Jane Austen discarded this ending? Did her family do her a service or disservice by bringing it to light?Katrine: How do the two endings differ emotionally — and what do they tell us about the love between Anne and Wentworth? 🤍Quote: "No truth in any part of it?" or "I cannot stay, because I must go to the P. Office, but if you will only sit down for 5 minutes I am sure Sophy will come--and you will find nobody to disturb you--there is nobody but Frederick here--" opening the door as he spoke.--Such a person to be passed over as a Nobody to her!"Who wins the chapter?

• Persuasion Chapter 24

  We made it to the final chapter of Persuasion! Anne and Wentworth face no opposition from Anne's family, Lady Russell admits she was wrong, and Mary takes credit for the match. Mr. Elliot and Mrs. Clay run off together, and Wentworth helps Mrs. Smith sell her husband's estate in the West Indies.Glossary of People, Places, and Things: Moana, Sex and the City, Wuthering Heights, I Will Always Love You, Happier, The One That Got Away, The Good Witch, I Can Do It With A Broken Heart, Cornelia Street, Back to December, Anne Elliot's Sad Girl Playlist.Patron Study Questions:Megan: What 3 songs are definitely on Anne’s breakup playlist? Katrine: Aside from Anne & Wentworth — do the other people in the novel get a happy ending? Think of Mrs Clay and Louisa, will they be happy in life or have they potentially made a mistake in choosing a partner? Similarly with Elizabeth and Sit Walter — is happiness in their future?Avi: Who changed more in the course of the novel, Anne or Wentworth?Becca's Study Questions: Topics discussed include who would be worse to be married to out of Sir Walter and Mr. Elliot, why Austen put Elliot and Mrs. Clay together, what it does to the story to have a happy ending, convenient vs. inconvenient love.Quote: "Of all the family, Mary was probably the one most immediately gratified by the circumstance. It was creditable to have a sister married, and she might flatter herself with having been greatly instrumental to the connexion, by keeping Anne with her in the autumn."Who wins the book?
