Hazel Jones has been running adult residential courses on Jane Austen since 1996. She is a Jane Austen addict, having fallen in love with Henry Tilney at eleven years old, although she has since been unfaithful to him with Mr Darcy, Captain Wentworth and Mr Knightley. She has written a book on marriage in Jane Austen's time, Jane Austen and Marriage (Continuum, 2009). This draws on Jane Austen's novels and letters and contemporary texts such as diaries, newspapers and conduct books.
Hazel taught English at Exeter University's Department of Lifelong Learning, specializing in Jane Austen. She tutored courses on the novelist for the thriving Summer Academy programme, which attracted students from all over the world. She continues to organize residential courses for adults at various venues in the UK.
Based just outside Exeter, Hazel will be pleased to hear from you if you wish to discuss booking her for Jane Austen talks or walks or have any thoughts on new venues for her courses.
