judifilksign Today, it being a chilly day, I wore a long, black, empire waisted dress, paired with a long sweater, almost a shawl.
My two classes who are reading Pride and Prejudice both thought I was dressing up like the characters in the book and film in order to keep interest up. (Not that I am beyond this, but it was actually just a coincidence. One that I will repeat in the future as a non-coincidence, to engender interest, because it did so very well!)
I asked them if they thought I was more Lady Catherine, or Elizabeth. Both classes said I was neither; I was Jane. Sweet Jane, who is so nice and never says a bad word about anybody. (I'd much rather be a Lizzy, but at least they think I'm nice, and not Lady Catherine!)
I will be viewing the Kiera Knightly film version soon, to compare it to the BBC's Colin Firth's Darcy performance. We'll see which version I'll use in the future for school.
