Show and Tell object for Persuasion by Jane Austen?

I have to do a reading project. One of the projects is a show and tell item. We are supposed to bring an item from the book we are reading and read a paragraph about it and what role it plays in the book. THe problem is I can't think of any object that would be good for the show and tell. If you have read the book and have any suggestions that would be so helpful. I have to have it by tonight.

Wentworth's letter is the only really significant object that I can think of. Just copy it out on a piece of paper (maybe if you have some good stationary handy?) and that's that.


Good luck with the showing-and-telling. :)Show and Tell object for Persuasion by Jane Austen?
Captain Wentworth's letter is, I agree, pivotal.





You could also bring in a book of poetry by either Sir Walter Scott or Lord Byron. If you look at chapter 11, when they all go to Lyme, Anne and Captain Benwick discuss literature. Several titles were mentioned such as The Lady of the Lake and Marmion (Scott) and The Bride of Abydos and The Giaour (Byron). It may not be as important as the letter, but it was the turning point for Captain Benwick. It also set the stage for what followed with Louisa.





You could also bring in a picture of English naval vessels or naval uniforms worn during that period of the early 1800s (1816). There are several important characters in the story who were naval men, Frederick Wentworth most notably.





You could bring in a mirror to represent shallow Sir Walter Elliot and his vanity. If you remember, Admiral Croft mentioned (chapter 13) ';sending away some of the large looking-glasses from my dressing-room, which was your father's.';
