- The life of Jane Austen was extraordinary, and 250 years later we can walk in her footsteps and visit places Jane Austen lived or visited in her short but remarkable life.
From Jane Austen's birth to her death we have travelled to many of the places we know she lived and visited starting in Steventon her birth village, to the glamorous Georgian City of Bath where were fortunes were mixed and unsettling for the 6 years she lived there.
We follow her to Southampton where her brother Francis gave her a home, and then back to her beloved Hampshire and Chawton Cottage her final proper home. Along the way, we tell many stories of Jane Austen that give us a picture of her life, and how the luck of her brother Edward Austen Knight being adopted by the rich Knight family, enabled him to provide a home for Jane and to provide her with inspiration to write in part thanks to Edward and his Chawton House estate. We see out her final days in Winchester, follow the route her coffin took to Winchester Cathedral and visit the grave of Jane Austen to complete our final footsteps in her past. Jane Austen was arguably one of the best English novelists of her time we hope our video will give you further insight into her life.

Sie haben eine sehr schöne und angenehme Stimme , ich könnte Ihnen stundenlang zuhören.....Auch Ihre Beiträge sind sehr interessant !!! DANKE SCHÖN 💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹
With magical countrysides like this. It explains where a lot of English writers get their ideas from.
Hampshire is delightful and yes I think you are right! Inspiration aplenty!
No
this was such a beautiful and heartbreaking video on the life of jane austen. it's such a shame that she was recognized for her works after her death but nonetheless, i'm glad that her works are still appreciated by many till now.
Your Jane Austen series is beautiful and heartbreaking. Thank you.
Thank you for watching.
This has been so fascinating going to all these lovely places she was. What an incredible person she was for her time & such a talent & imagination. Thank you. This saw fabulous.
Wonderful, so respectful and thoughtful Thank you for treating this talented, wonderful woman with the reverence she deserves.
Thank you for watching, glad you liked it.
I was so taken with the prayer by Austen in the church that I was going to write it down, but then a small voice whispered, “Seek me on Amazon!” I did so immediately (the video still being paused) and found the loveliest little hard cover book of all of her prayers for about $8.00 US! I’ve ordered it and will happily add her prayers to my devotions!
These are lovely productions. Thank you for sharing. Gives me an opportunity to experience this beautiful history even if I can never make it to England.
Our pleasure!
I am a fan of Jane Austen and have been following your documentaries about Jane Austen for a while now. You have done an excellent work about the life of Jane Austen and her family. Your videos are clear and enchanting at the same time. Your works are much enjoyed and appreciated. Thank you.
Ahh! That’s great to hear - thanks so much!
Glad you have enjoyed the series 😀
Hope you enjoy our other videos too, we have lots more to come soon!
@@MemorySeekers Yes intend to watch your other videos too. Carry on the good works and keep well too.
Thank you! You too
Jane wrote so beautifully about places in her books because she naturally lived in such wonderful places... your video is like gift for Jane Austen books lovers
Thank you for your kind words.
The novelles of Jane Austen and the Brontë sisters changed my life about 30 years ago and I really want you to know how much I appreciate your videos and your efforts to give us such wonderful impressions of their lifes.My english is not very good but I just want to say thank you.
Hello again, glad you found the Jane Austen videos!
Absolutely charming….I love the Jane Austen telephone booth library. The literature of Jane Austen is timeless. Thank you for this lovely tour…a day maker to watch this.
Shawn loved your comment so glad you really enjoyed the video. Such a lovely place and we had great fun making the video.
I loved the phone box too ❤
I hope (and God allow me) to visit her place some day! One of my favorite writers!! ♥️📚
We hope you make it happen, you cannot beat an in person visit.
Sounds absolutely lovely, a quiet birthplace for an exceptional woman who succeeded in a man's world to be great 250 years and counting.
I am completely enchanted by this Jane Austin videos by you. It is as if I'm watching a documentary on her. I've read her novels: pride and prejudice, Emma, sense and sensibility. Emma was the course novel for English literature in college of my sister. But she found it to be too much so I read the novel and prepared the complete notes for her. And ha ha ha... she passed. Thank you for taking me down the memory lane and giving an insight into the life of this wonderful lady whose era has always fascinated me. You are a magician.
Thank you for the lovely comment Kasturi, glad you found the tour wonderful and interesting.
Absolutely lovely, picturesque, history filled video. Appreciate the quiet narration and style.
Thank you lovely to get good feedback! ☺
I love Jane's novels! I have read them all and watched the movies made from them, she was an amazing authoress. So sad she passed away so very young, how many more novels might she have written for our enjoyment. Thank you Jane for your lovely stories of your time.
Lovely comment Donna
@@MemorySeekers thank you for a look into her life and where she lived.
"Jane?"
Died so young is relative. Yes a little but at the time is wasn't that young.
@@margo3367 uh oh a Janeite takes umbrage.
What a beautiful video of Jane Austen's life...I am looking forward to next week!
Great to hear thank you 😊
Beautifully and sensitively filmed! Jane is one of Britain’s great novelists, and I’ve read all of them, so it’s wonderful to see some of the places she lived.
It was great fun travelling to the places and filming. So pleased you like it.
Agreed
Thank you so much for history, I probably never going to see this in my lifetime.
Well done. You're a very talented videographer and the editing is faultless.
Wow, thank you! Very kind, glad you liked it.
Absolutely loved this video from beginning to end...
Thank you so much 😊
Благодарю вас! Произведения читали и очень популярны в России. Спасибо.
So well researched, and beautifully filmed with stunning glimpses of beautiful English countryside.
I particularly admire the way you present the facts around Jane’s life in such an engaging manner: I almost felt as though you were talking to me alone!
And great choice for the accompanyIng music too.
Many thanks and greetings from a new subscriber in Sunny Queensland😎
Hello Jules. Thanks so much for the lovely words. Very nice to read. Welcome to the channel! 😀
Hi from Romania!I love Jane Austen!📚.Thank you and God bless you!
Hello thank you for watching! Glad you liked it.Greetings from London
I couldn't take my eyes off the screen, can't wait for another. greetings from pakistan
Loved reading your message 🙏 😊
It's a Beautiful Place & Memoirs of Jane Austen.👩
Glad you liked it, we had great fun visiting the places to make it!
Jane Austen and her writings . Wonderful. And some great places that I will visit in the future.
Hope you manage to visit some of these wonderful places.
@@MemorySeekers I have got plans.
Jane Austen is my favorite English writer. I have read all her novels. In fact a read them whenever I want.
😊
Thank you once again. This tour is so well researched and put together it's just so relaxing and inspiring at the same time. Take care =-)
Thank you 😊
I'm living in the middle east (Asia) and it is like a time travel video to me, I really like to feel this period of time, I have been read Jane Austen's book ''pride and prejudice'', she is also famous here, and because of her many movings, how sinusoidal life she has!
Also unlike us, I wondered that u r keeping these old buildings and structures like exactly they were in the past!
Hello thank you enjoyed the video and found it interesting. We do like to preserve the important historical places which is great for next generation to see.
Hi wonderful ,big Jane Austen and would love to see these places someday ,thanks for sharing ,
Hope you are able to.
Jane Austen
Life
Live
Forever
Thank you so much for this. I knew she had been unhappy in Bath, but didn't know they lived in so many houses there. It was quite touching that they ended up moving into houses/streets they originally rejected more than once. The final cottage must have felt like paradise in comparison.
Hi Lorri,
Yes, we didn’t realise they had to move so many times until we started researching it for the video. Bath is a fantastic city these days, but the quiet village would have been a welcome change after the sad memories from her time in Bath.
@@MemorySeekers Oh, I know Bath is fantastic, but if you have to live in a fantastic place in a house or on a street you don't like, you don't feel so fantastic.
Really love your English touring videos. I love your use of music and camera work and your voice is lovely as narrator. My sister and mother and I did our own tour of the key places Jane lived back in 1998. So nice to relive the tour with your help! Lovely thank you!
Hello Sarah, thank you for the lovely comment. So pleased you enjoy our content and we stirred some memories of your Jane Austen adventure 😊
Thank you very much for your 3 beautiful and informative videos on the life of Jane Austen. They are much appreciated.
You are so welcome!

Greetings from Italy 🚶♂️🇮🇹

One of my favorite authors! Delightful video to watch!
Wonderful, Thank you.
My favourite too. 😊
I'd like to thank you for such a wonderful work. It has allowed us, the Jane Austen fans, a closer look at her life, regardless how far we all may be.
No problem very welcome.
I live in New Zealand 🇳🇿 and agree with your comment.👏👏⭐️
I really liked the story. I love Jane Austen's books. Thank you.
Пожалуйста!
I love that church. Just beautiful.
Yes very cute
Excellent video I enjoyed it. I saw her books turned into movies back in the 1990s can't wait to see more, greetings from Canada 😃
Thank you glad you enjoyed the video, where in Canada are you? I’ve travelled there quite a bit for work and loved Toronto and Vancouver and the rocky mountains. Somewhere we hope to visit this November.
@@MemorySeekers I'm from Ontario Canada. It's a great place to visit I've been everywhere in canada. I've been to England. But not all the towns. 😃
I adored this video! Thank you so much. Lovely work!

Thank you very much! Really lovely to hear.
Gracias gracias gracias!!!!!!!!. Me apasiona todo lo referente a Jane Austen. No me canso de ella!!! Abrazo desde Buenos Aires Argentina.
Hi guys thank you so much for your video it was very informative and so well done .My husband and I had a house very similar to janes but it became too much for me to cope with as we aged.I have to say it brought back some very happy memories.We have always loved Jane Austin’s books she was ahead of her time .
Hi Liz, lovely to hear from you. So pleased that the video brought back memories of your home. I can imagine something similar to Jane’s house requiring a lot of attention.
Such a treat to watch this.
Thank you
Another wonderful and entertaining video. The visuals are interesting and well-supported by knowledgeable narration. Thank you.
Many thanks!
So beautiful i have read almost all of her books and to see her home was so special Lovely narration as always.❤❤❤
Glad you liked it and found it interesting 😃
MemorySeekers why did women not attend funerals back then? Thank you. Nicely done! I can’t believe how many women writers passed so young! Love her books! (Across the pond) 😊
Hello apparently they were deemed to be to fragile and emotional and it was therefore not appropriate to attend. Life expectancy during that era was much lower so it was everyone not just the writers dying young sadly.
@@MemorySeekers thank you for answering. That made me think of the Bronte siblings! Only the fathers lived long in both cases! How odd... Love your channel! Thanks again! 🙏🏼🌟
The English countryside is so beautiful! Nice video
It really is!
I was so happy seeing this video
Jane is my favourite writer and was amazing knowing pieces of her life that I didn't know
Congratulations!!!!🤗
Thank you for watching, glad you learnt something new about her life.
So wonderful video. You brought tears in my eyes... and I sending much LOVE from Brazil. Thanks & Kisses!
So glad you liked it. Greetings from London.
Love all her books.
Thanks a million for all the stories.
Glad you like them!

Glad you enjoyed it!
Very Beautiful. Thanks for the vidéo and the lovely music👍👍
Thank you, so glad you enjoyed the tour and the music! We had great fun making it.
historic documentary
Wonderful! Great work! I was born and raised in Hampshire 😎 but never heard of Steventon.
Nice place to live, glad u learnt something new about the county.
I just love your videos. I thank you for sharing you knowledge ❣️.The church is priceless. I would love to live in a church like that. It’s breathtaking. I forgot how beautiful the countryside is in England. Thank you for this video. Wonderfully done.✨ I definitely have to visit these places.
Thanks Cindy, glad you liked it. We've had to research which has been fun to put the videos together. So we too have learnt a lot about Jane and her life.
I am enjoying this series about Miss Austen although I only read her works in grade school they had an effect on me as they are quite deep, but I really am much more a fan of the Bronte's. I am not sure why exactly. Austen's world was a bit pretentious but I don't believe that was the intent as the dialogue really pulls you in. Thank you so very much for sharing.
Thankyou very much for this from Brisbane Australia 🍹
What a wonderful and informative tour of the lives of these people. We have such a rich heritage.
Absolutely stunning beautiful historical documentary love it love it
Thank you! 😊
We have one coming on the Bronte sisters in a few weeks if that is of interest.
@@MemorySeekers yes loved the Bronte sisters my favorite book is Jane Eyre so can not wait
Es tan maravilloso tu canal, que no tengo palabras para expresar la alegría que me produce haberlo encontrado.
Que trabajo tan magnífico!!!
Es emocionante poder ver estos lugares de la vida de Jane Austen en la actualidad.
Muchísimas muchísimas gracias!!! 🌼
Gracias por el hermoso comentario, ¡nos mantiene activos y nos anima a hacer más! Tan amable de tu parte. Atentamente.
This another lovely podcast... thank you😊
You are so welcome!
Another lovely video and so interesting , Jane lived in The most beautiful places too ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it
Just for the record: actually, JA wrote an additional novel, "Lady Susan," which is not usually included in the "canon."
Love Jane Austen. Have watched documentaries, movies, mini-series of her books. Plus one of my emails is named after her.
Thanks Simon/Will for posting about Jane.
Спасибо большое! Замечательный фильм!
пожалуйста! счастлив, что тебе понравилось видео
This channel is something I have dreamed of ever since
Wonderful presentation.
Thank you Kay
I really enjoyed this. And the music made sad. Clearly, you put in a lot effort which we aren't privy to. I respect that. Will you cover other homes like Deane Park, Haddon hall, Ripley Castle etc.? As an anglophile, I intend to visit them. Cheers!
We have many of these places on the list but don't know when we will be in the areas to film at this time. Hopefully one day!
lovely but sad thankyou
So interesting - thank you!
Glad you liked it.
Beautifully shown and explained and Loved the Music
Ah thank you nice to hear.
Amazing narration would love to see more of Jane Austen s life
wonderful video, esp. for a jane austen devotee.
We had such fun making this film!
Love your videos, so much for me to learn
I'm so glad!
Many Thanks.
Most welcome!
Thank you
So it appears that the character Catherine, in Northanger Abbey, was based on Jane herself. Very similar background, experiences, and a desire for romance.
Yes, appears to be very similar and would follow from some of the other novels themes being based on her life experiences.
Great video always nice the history that goes along with your videos.
Thanks 👍
Beautiful video and so respectful. It is so lovely to see these beautiful places where we live.
Thank you for watching 😊
Excellent! Thanks!
You're welcome!
Thank you! ! !
You're welcome!
It Is marvelous to visit all historical places relates to English culture . I would Iike to know about Turner and Constable , the two great painters of romanticism ! 😌
Certainly sounds interesting as I know nothing about them. One to add to the list to find out more 😊
Wonderful. Thank you.
Well done! Loved this from beginning to end
Thank you!!! Glad you enjoyed it
Your videos are always entertaining and informative I learn something new every video I watch. The filming and editing is so professional. You make history even more fun and interesting. Look forward to your next adventure!!!
Ah thank u means a lot! It was a tricky video to make over quite a few weeks. Pretty happy with how it turned out and we learnt a lot about Jane Austen as well.
