The History of England
CATEGORY: Audiobook, Classics, History, Humour & Satire | Author: Jane Austen | Narrator: Hannah Grace | Length : 0hr26m | Released: 5th April 2024
The History of England from Henry IV to Charles I, by a partial, prejudiced, and ignorant historian. N.B. There will be very few dates in this History! Jane Austen wrote The History of England in 1791, at the age of just 15, as a satirical parody of 18th-century historical textbooks. It pokes fun at the apparent impartiality of contemporary historians and contains more opinions about the monarchs’ relative characters than any facts or dates. The History of England was not published until 1922, more than a century after Austen’s death.
