One day you wake up, and your sister is a Janeite. You think it might be a coincidence about her name, Jane, but as Emma says, this does not signify. Friends and family hover between amused and clueless since maybe, like you, they\u2019ve seen the movies but probably never actually read Jane Austen. And now that Austen\u2019s become a pop phenomenon, folks figure it\u001efinally got easy to get your sister a gi\u00adft; you name it\u2014Jane Austen doll, mug, puzzle, Post-its, apron, newest rip-off zombie bodice ripper. Just to be clear, your sister sneers at this consumerist appropriation; she\u2019s moved on to a higher level of Janeitism. This is a serious field of inquiry. She\u2019s a gentlewoman and a scholar. She\u2019s also become an haute couture Regency seamstress, fashioning with meticulous attention to outward authenticity (the Velcro and metal hooks are hidden) the most extravagant gowns with matching headgear and purses. And you thought it was all about the empire dress fashioned aft\u00ader some Greek goddess. Someone asked about your sister\u2019s interest in cosplay, but you think if Austen became a Disney princess, it also wouldn\u2019t signify.<\/p>\n

You love your sister; she has her thing, and you have yours. But isn\u2019t it time you read Jane Austen, at least one book? You\u2019ve read Edward Said\u2019s essay \u201cJane Austen and Empire,\u201d but not Mansfield Park<\/em>. You agree with Said, but then aren\u2019t you a fraud? So you buy the complete novels of Jane Austen with an introduction by Karen Joy Fowler. Hey, KJ is a fan; couldn\u2019t hurt to crack it open. To be honest, you don\u2019t read<\/em> any of them, but you do listen on audio. You cook and clean, pay bills, answer email, write syllabi, oft\u00aden fall asleep, and listen to one novel a\u00adfter another. Does this count? The English accents are authentic. It\u2019s true that imperialism and colonialism are alive and fueling the second-tier aristocracy and the nouveau landowners; guys disappear to the New World, the Middle Passage, and Indian assignments, and return eligibly wealthy. Someone has got to fund all those balls, concerts, carriages, and month a\u00adfter month living on the considerable resources in the many rooms and extensive gardens of those grand estates. Austen isn\u2019t telling; she\u2019s just showing. When home gets reproduced in other worlds, you figure that this is the memory that builds those plantations. If there are six main characters, there has to be sixty servants who pretty much never appear or speak, but this is not their story. And this is not the point. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s the turn of the seventeenth to the eighteenth century. Was that a sexual innuendo? You\u2019re making a vat of Meyer lemon marmalade. Turns out it\u2019s seven and a half pounds of lemons to nine pounds of plantation sugar, but that\u2019s confidential information. You check the temperature on the Meyer lemon marmalade, then press a sticky finger to the Thirty Seconds Back icon on the iPad. You press the icon a couple of times, because what\u2019s a sexual innuendo in Regency? The protagonist has been sitting the entire dance. Totally snubbed. Bummer. Your sister has said they probably didn\u2019t wear panties; too much trouble under all those layers of Indian silk and indigo muslin. It\u2019s all about the clothing, the pushed-up bosoms, and the perfect curls. Beautifully powdered Anglo-Saxon people. It\u2019s got to take hours of fine preparation. You think you could wear one of your sister\u2019s Regency gowns without panties, too. The candy thermometer creeps up to 220. The thing is, it wasn\u2019t sexual innuendo per se, just innuendo. Like the blue mercury creeping surreptitiously to the jam point, you might miss it entirely. You realize that this is a romance without romanticism; it\u2019s antiromantic, all about calculating your chances to make the right choice, which for most of the characters, except the heroine, is the wrong choice. Marriage is like marmalade\u2014you could miss 220 and reject Mr. Knightley or Mr. Darcy or Captain Wentworth, and, well, c\u2019est la vie. You had a boss who was an old Reaganite, and though you both agreed to disagree about most things, your boss once said a true Janeite thing: Nobody knows why they do that<\/em>. By \u201cthat\u201d he meant get married. Society moves around the question, and despite what Janeites know, everyone makes the same mistakes.<\/p>\n

You grasp for some kind of relationship, and it occurs to you that maybe you can compare this Janeite society to growing up sansei. Not the carriages and grand plantation estates; face it, you grew up in city ghettos and plotted suburbs. Still, growing up sansei was very confusing. Fortunately no one has to do this again. Your parent\u2019s generation, the nisei, were generally closed-mouthed, diffident people who had been burned big-time. Everything that should have been obvious about American society and its promises of freedom and the future was on a standby basis, depending on you. And everything the nisei passed on to sansei was unspoken innuendo about what kind of people you were supposed to grow up to be. Apparently the Chinese are fortunate enough to have loud-mouthed tiger moms, but in the day, the sansei were supposed to get it by just being born.<\/p>\n

There was some sociological statistic about sansei outmarriage, something like 50 percent back in the day. You can speculate about the conditions of an attraction and subtraction, but maybe your sister and the Janeites can make marmalade of something a South Asian friend of yours once said: All marriages are arranged<\/em>.<\/p>\n
