Results of the Janeite Survey 2008

Filed under: Austen Societies and Events — Mags @ 1:47 am

Gentle Readers will remember that Jeanne Kiefer took a survey earlier this year to learn more about the demographics of Jane Austen fans, and presented her findings at the JASNA AGM in Chicago last month. A summary of the results are now available, and if you would like to read the full report, you can e-mail Jeanne (information is at the link). We were not much surprised at the diversity of our little world, and found it all quite interesting reading. Check it out!

    That was interesting. I guess I’m median age! Well, for another 9 days. Thanks for following through with sharing the results.

    I am so happy to see the results of the survey! I was delighted to see that I made the intersting hobbies category. It is a little known fact that many flamenco dance aficionados are also Jane Austen fans.

    Bellydancing in Cairo….I’d bet that many who dance, are Austen fans…
    Interesting results.
