Pride and Prejudice - أغر؟´«أ½ TV adaptation
Dancing in Jane Austen's novel 'Pride and Prejudice'
 
These are the four features we published for you in February:

Jane Austen's House
We visit a small, historic house in the south of England - once the home of the great English novelist, Jane Austen. Our guide is Louise West, the education officer at Chawton cottage.

Xiaolu Guo
We meet the young and highly-successful Chinese writer and film-maker, Xiaolu Guo. She talks about learning English, and how she had fun trying to find the right kind of English for a character in her best-selling novel, A Concise Chinese-English Dictionary for Lovers.

Richard Firestone
Our guest is Richard Firestone, an American scientist in Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory who has recently been involved in a fascinating research into an unusual meteor.

Robin Coupland
Today we are seeing ... a doctor. But not an ordinary doctor. Robin Coupland is the adviser on armed violence for the International Committee of the Red Cross in Geneva who has spent many years as a field surgeon treating victims of landmines.
