Corrections and clarifications

• It is a truth universally acknowledged, that Guardian proofreading is sometimes found wanting: a feature in last Saturday’s Review section in which seven authors named their favourite Jane Austen book (The magnificent seven, page 2) quoted a passage from Northanger Abbey and described this as a vigorous remonstration from General Tilney; the words were actually those of General Tilney’s younger son, Henry. Furthermore, an illustration on the front page of the section showed Austen characters reading “Northern Abbey” and “Pride and Predjudice” [sic].

• There is a memorial to the 329 people who died in 1985 when a terrorist bomb destroyed Air India flight 182 on the south coast of the Sheep’s Head peninsula in southern Ireland, not its north coast as we said (Empire wove together the histories of Ireland and India – and of my family, 15 July, page 33).
