This Jane Austen Inspiration & Writing Journal is part of Natural History Collages' literary journal series—celebrating the natural worlds that exist just beneath the surface of classic novels.
The front cover collage draws from the natural and domestic imagery that quietly grounds Austen’s writing: animals, gardens, fruit, and the cultivated landscapes that frame her characters’ lives. On the back cover, a thoughtfully assembled list of species mentioned across Austen’s novels forms a gentle natural-history counterpart to her social worlds.
Inside, the journal opens with a sequence of literary excerpts paired with the collage's vintage natural history illustrations, drawn from across Austen’s work—including Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, and Emma. These pairings highlight the way animals, plants, and landscapes quietly inhabit her novels—present not as symbols, but as part of daily life, observation, and habit.
The inside covers feature selected 19th-century artwork that introduced early readers to Jane Austen's world.
Following the opening pages, the journal offers 200 lined pages (100 sheets)—calm, generous space for writing of all kinds. Like the others in this series, this is an inspiration journal, shaped by the person using it.
This journal is designed primarily as a writing space; the three illustrated pages at the front are intentionally chosen to explain the imagery on the cover and set the tone, rather than fill the book.
