SUMMARY:LCSNA Fall Conference 2020 Virtual Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Watch the conference videos on YouTube  \n\n\n\n\nThe Hatter was the first to break the silence. “What day of the month is it?” he said\, turning to Alice: he had taken his watch out of his pocket\, and was looking at it uneasily\, shaking it every now and then\, and holding it to his ear.Alice considered a little\, and then said “The fourth.”“Six days wrong!”  sighed the Arnold Hirshon. \nThe LCSNA Fall Meeting is this coming Saturday\,  October 10\, 2020\, 12:00 – 4:45 PM\, EASTERN DAYLIGHT TIME\, USA. \nWe are excited about the opportunity to “see” so many of you. The program is exceptional and our program host is Arnold Hirshon\, Vice Provost and University Librarian at Case Western Reserve University and LCSNA Board member. \nRegistration\nThe meeting is free and open to the public. However to ensure there are virtual seats for the event we ask that you register. \nRegister \nClick here for a PDF version of the Agenda and Speaker Bios \n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n12:00 pm – 12:15 pm\nWelcome – Linda Cassady\, President\, LCSNA\n\n\n12:15 pm – 1:05 pm\nMichael Hancher will discuss “Revising The Tenniel Illustrations to the ‘Alice” Books (1985\, 2019)\,” including the updated original twelve chapters of the 1985 edition and six new chapters on book and image production concerning engraving\, electrotyping\, printing\, coloring\, reengraving\, and “Retrospect: Looking with Alice.”\n\n\n1:05 pm – 1:35 pm\nArnold Hirshon. “Beyond Tenniel: Trailblazing Illustrators of Alice.” Despite common assumptions\, the “long shadow of Tenniel” did not dictate the work of later illustrators\, nor was Tenniel always the best or right. Even the earliest editions contained many underappreciated innovations that went beyond what Tenniel imagined or delivered.\n\n\n1:35 pm – 2:40 pm\nJared Bendis\, Ben Gorham\, and Amanda Koziura\, three members of the Freedman Center for Digital Scholarship team at the Kelvin Smith Library of Case Western Reserve University will explore “Digital Alice”\, with presentations about interactive online displays of Alice\, applying geospatial information (GIS) to map developments in the dissemination of the works of Lewis Carroll\, and creating new printing woodblocks from the original images using laser technology.\n\n\n2:40 pm – 3:00 pm\nBreak\n\n\n3:00 pm – 3:35 pm\nAugust Imholtz. “The History of the Appleton edition of Alice.” This paper discusses the history of the Appleton Alice\, how it almost came not to be\, how it came to be\, what it is\, its variations\, its marketing\, its early reception in the United States\, and its survival.\n\n\n3:35 pm – 4:10 pm\nEdward Guiliano.   “Lewis Carroll: A Poet First.” Lewis Carroll’s first and last published works were both poems. Lost or under-appreciated in the universe of his Alice books\, the beauty of his photographs\, his games\, puzzles and mathematics is the centrality of poetry in his life and his creative expression. His talent for poetry was precious and prodigious. While his devotion to his Christian religion as well as to mathematics and logic were key constants in his life\, so too\, curiouser and curiouser\, was poetry a life-long anchor and friend.\n\n\n4:10 pm – 4:45 pm\nMatt Demakos. “The Blip: The Engraver’s Role in Tenniel’s Process.” This session will explore the engraver’s responsibility when cutting Tenniel’s finished drawings on the wood. Demakos will delve into the different types of engraving\, the process of physically cutting the block\, and\, most importantly\, the accuracy of the cutting. Who is exactly responsible for the final image?\n\n\n\nAbout the Speakers\nJared Bendis is the Creative New Media Officer at the Freedman Center for Digital Scholarship of the Kelvin Smith Library at Case Western Reserve University.

The guardian angel of her sense of humor\, Madison Hatta\, Sonneteer\, sprang fully-formed into April’s awareness in 2011\, sending through frequent doses of Levi-Tea that April endeavors to get out into the world in a form true to both of them. April plus Madison have published two chapbooks of Madisonnets—Madison Hatta’s Book of Unreasonable Rhymes\, and Madison Hatta’s Book of Unrelenting Rhymes—through Philadelphia’s Moonstone Press. Keep an ear out for their podcast series\, April Plus Madison’s Amusings on SoundCloud. \nBob Stek is a retired psychologist who spontaneously memorized Jabberwocky as a young teenager and purchased the “Annotated Alice” while in high school. Martin Gardner led him to the “Annotated Sherlock Holmes” several years later\, and he is now obsessed with both Carroll and Doyle and their literary creations. He has been a member of the Baker Street Irregulars since 1996 but was only introduced to the LCSNA and LCS by fellow Sherlockian/Carrollians Dayna Nuhn and Dana Richards about five years ago. \nCharlie Lovett is the New York Times bestselling author of The Bookman’s Tale\, First Impressions\, and The Lost Book of the Grail. His plays for children have been seen in over 4\,500 productions worldwide. He is the host of the podcast Inside the Writer’s Studio.

After a decade working in the restaurant industry\, it was a relief to finally have a chair\, a salary\, some health benefits\, and vacation days. Over the course of the last 11 years\, she has certainly seen her share of marvelous and rare books. In 2017\, however\, the curator of printed materials handed her a very special book: a work of literature! The APS holds collections on botany\, anthropology\, linguistics\, physics\, and early American history\, but it is rare to be met with literature\, much less a children’s classic. It has been a true pleasure to be met with literature\, much less a children’s classic. \nLinda Cassady\, LCSNA President. \nDavid McKnight is the Director of the Annenberg Rare Book and Manuscript Library at the University of Pennsylvania Libraries. Mr. McKnight possesses a BA in Classics and History (McGill University\, Montreal\, 1985)\, an MA in English Literature (Concordia University\, Montreal\, 1993) and an MLIS (McGill University\, Montreal\, 1992).

He has taught courses on disability\, queer\, and media studies at Penn and Bryn Mawr College. His most recent article\, Writing Novels\, Simulating Voices: Euphonia\, Trilby\, and the Technological Sounding of Identity\, is forthcoming in Victorian Literature and Culture. \nSibylla Benatova came to the United States in 2001 and joined the family of Rare Books and Manuscripts at the Penn library. After completing her M.A in Arts at the Sofia Theater and Film Academy\, Sibylla was naturally drawn to the world of paper conservation. In 2007 her first illustrated children’s book\, The Magic Raincoat\, was published by Front Street Press\, and in 2008 the book was granted the Junior Library Guild award. Several book cover designs\, both in Bulgaria and the United States\, carry her artwork. Her hand-made Asian paper paintings have been exhibited in multiple solo and group shows in Bulgaria and Philadelphia. In 2014 Benatova started the A Book a Day program. \nSherlockian Carrollians. Who better to balance the cold\, precise calculating mind of Sherlock Holmes than the cast of characters who wander around Wonderland? Ira Matetsky\, Dayna Nuhn\, Dana Richards\, and Robert Stek are all investitured members of the Baker Street irregulars and owe their current mental states to the combined influences of those complementary D’s of Victorian literature\, Dodgson and Doyle. \nEllie Schaefer-Salins is a third generation Carrollian collector. Her grandmother began collecting Alice books in the 1890’s and her parents\, Maxine and David Schaefer\, greatly expanded the collection and were founding members of the LCSNA.

Her books have won many awards\, and Krull has won honors for her body of work\, including the Children’s Book Guild of Washington\, D.C.\, Nonfiction Award (2011) and the Leo Politi Golden Author Award (2006). \n\n\n\nDr. Joseph T Thomas is Professor of English and Comparative Literature at San Diego State University\, where he also serves as Director of the National Center for the Study of Children’s Literature. Alongside Kenneth Kidd\, Thomas edited Prizing Children’s Literature: The Cultural Politics of Children’s Book Awards (Routledge 2016). Thomas is the author of a handful of essays and two books\, Poetry’s Playground: The Culture of Contemporary American Children’s Poetry (Wayne State UP\, 2007) and Strong Measures (Make Now P\, 2007). \n\n\n\nNYIT president emeritus Dr. Edward Guiliano is a renowned scholar of Victorian literature\, and the author and editor of an ever expanding number of Carrollian books and articles. He is a founding member of the LCSNA. Guiliano is the recipient of two honorary degrees and the Ellis Island Medal of Honor for his personal accomplishments\, social compassion\, and outstanding contributions to American society. His newest book\, Lewis Carroll: Worlds of His Alices\, will be published by Edward Everett Root in April\, 2019. \n\n\n\nPhillip Serrato is Associate Professor of English & Comparative Literature at San Diego State University. His research and teaching interests include gothic & horror studies\, children’s & young adult literature\, and Chicanx literary & cultural studies. The full title of his talk is: “It’s Not Easy Being a Girl in Heteropatriarchy: On Female Coalition and Mentorship (or the Lack Thereof) in Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland\, Tobe Hooper’s Texas Chain Saw Massacre\, Rob Zombie’s House of 1000 Corpses\, and Gloria Anzaldua’s Prietita and the Ghost Woman.” \n\n\n\nIain McCaig is a phenomenally creative storyteller and artist\, having been principal character designer\, concept artist\, or art director for such major films as Star Wars (Episodes I\, II\, III\, VI\, VII\, VIII\, and Solo)\, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire\, Charlotte’s Web\, Guardians of the Galaxy\, The Jungle Book\, Avengers: Infinity War\, Spiderman: Homecoming\, and Doctor Strange. He is also a script writer\, director\, and author (e.g.\, Shadowline: The Art of Iain McCaig\, Insight\, 2008). The title of his presentation refers to his talk at our Fall 2007 meeting in Seattle\, where he spoke about his work-in-progress\, illustrating Alice\, which he’d promised himself to finish by his 82nd birthday (2040). But a life-changing event changed his perspective and priorities\, and he will now be completing it by the Looking-glass anniversary in 2022. \n\n\n\nDr. Seth Mallios\, San Diego State University anthropology professor and University History curator\, will be leading a behind-the-scenes tour of previously lost campus murals from the 1930s\, ‘40s\, and ‘50s\, culminating at the recently restored Alice in Wonderland mural in Hardy Tower. This striking 12′ by 6′ artwork\, painted by Albert Joe Lewis in 1949\, showcases Carroll’s characters in spectacular color. The mural was long thought to have been destroyed during a building renovation\, but infrared photography revealed that it had merely been hidden beneath layers of white paint\, and painstaking conservation efforts have brought it back to life. Unveiled in 2016 as part of a campus-wide celebration of the legacy of Alice in Wonderland\, this mural speaks to Carroll’s lasting influence on young minds and the importance of fantasy and nonsensical fun following the horrors of global warfare.

SUMMARY:LCSNA Spring 2013 Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Stephanie Lovett and Charlie and Janice Lovett were our hosts in Winston-Salem\, North Carolina\, for a very full\, multiple-venue three days (April 19-21). The events included a fully-staged performance of Dan Singer‘s new play\, A Perfect Likeness\, about an imagined meeting between Dodgson and Dickens; a talk by Charlie on the influence of Rev. Charles Dodgson on his son’s religious thinking; a chamber music concert featuring some of Carroll’s favorite tunes; a talk by Dr. Morna O’Neill on Edward Steichen and Lewis Carroll as photographers; Mark Richards on Carroll and surrealism; a presentation by Jett Jackson about her Alice paintings and sculptures; a Victorian Choral Evensong service featuring a sermon by Mark Goodacre based on an outline by Rev. Dodgson (Carroll\, not his father)\, and an exhibition of the Lovett Collection\, “Lewis Carroll & The Writer’s World.” Handouts included a catalogue of exhibits\, an updated version of Charlie’s article about Carroll’s typewriter (with text actually typed on the machine and laid into every copy!)\, and there was more than the usual amount of wonderful dining and socializing events\, as well. By all accounts\, the weekend was nothing less than utterly frabjous.

SUMMARY:Alice in the Rosenbach Collection (Spring 2010 Meeting)
DESCRIPTION:The spring 2010 meeting of the LCSNA was held at the Rosenbach Museum & Library in Philadelphia\, PA on Saturday\, April 24th\, 2010. Canadian member Andy Malcolm presented a funny and illuminating talk and hands-on demonstration about his work as foley (sound effects) artist for Tim Burton’s new Alice in Wonderland film\, ably aided by ProTools expert Jenna Dalla Riva and sound engineer Jack Heeren. The enormously talented Nancy Wiley shared an entertaining history of her career as a doll artist (with a great Demi Moore story!) and spoke about her beautiful new doll-themed edition of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. She kindly signed copies of her book and displayed some of her Carrollian dolls afterward. Noted Harvard scholar Maria Tatar gave a fascinating talk about the importance of nonsense\, and our instinctive need to find some kind of sense in it. To close the meeting\, Rosenbach Librarian Elizabeth Fuller treated attendees to an up-close look at a wealth of rare Carrolliana\, including an 1865 Alice\, correspondence\, and photographs\, all selected especially for us. In addition\, Please Touch Museum held its Storybook Weekend\, perfect for a Friday or Sunday visit\, and Stacey Swigart kindly arranged for free admission for LCSNA members. From beginning to end\, it was a brillig meeting\, and those in attendance voted it one of the LCSNA’s best. After the meeting\, attendees reconvened at The Black Sheep Pub (taking over the entire first floor!) for a delicious dinner and delightful conversation. Our thanks again to everyone at the Rosenbach for being such gracious hosts.

SUMMARY:Alice in Fort Lee\, New Jersey (Fall 2009 Meeting)
DESCRIPTION:David Schaefer\, a founding member and past president of the LCSNA\, began the meeting by giving a succinct overview of Alice in films\, starting with the 1903 Cecil Hepworth production at Walton on the Thames in England\, through the 1910 Edison company film and up to the Alice films of the 1930s\, including the first “talkie” version\, made in Fort Lee. Our first speaker\, film historian Prof. Richard Koszarski of Rutgers University\, did a remarkable job of sketching for us the interrelated social\, cultural\, economic\, and artistic history which had made Fort Lee\, New Jersey\, the first American movie capital. Alan Tannenbaum\, another past president of our society\, gave an entertaining hands-on talk about Alice film strip toys. Dr. Greg Bowers\, Assistant Professor of Theory and Composition in the Music Department of William and Mary College\, and composer of the musical “Lewis Carroll and Alice\,” spoke about “Timid and Tremulous Sounds: What Film Scores Should Like to Explain about Alice’s Adventures.” This brilliant talk greatly helped this writer to just begin to see what he had been hearing\, consciously or not\, and hear what he had been seeing. We then screened the extremely rare 1930 Producer “Bud” Pollard Alice\, the first talkie\, shot at the Metropolitan (formerly Peerless) Studio\, in Fort Lee. Young Ruth Gilbert (later a TV regular on Milton Berle’s show) played Alice; members of her family were in the audience for this special screening. Her slight New Jersey accent would have perhaps horrified audiences accustomed to Oxbridge English but Ruth gave a perky performance as Alice. Some liberties were taken with the book. For example\, the film added a peculiar love relationship between the Duchess and the White Rabbit! The story concludes with Alice saying\, again in her American patois “Come on all of you\, who’s afraid of a paltry deck of cards?” Delightful fun.

SUMMARY:Alice\, Mooney and Spooney in Santa Fe (Spring 2009 Meeting)
DESCRIPTION:Our Santa Fe\, New Mexico\, meeting began with a brief talk by Theaterwork’s artistic director\, David Olson\, on their first performance of Lewis Carroll’s juvenile operetta La Guida di Bragia since the young Charles Lutwidge Dodgson staged it for his family. Together with LCSNA’s multi-talented Jonathan Dixon\, Olson talked about the marionette play we would see in the evening: how children’s dolls\, rescued from the local Goodwill store\, were turned into doll puppets representing the characters of Mooney\, Spooney\, Sophonisba\, and her husband Orlando; how they designed a stage that was a miniature theater\, about six feet tall with the stage window itself about three feet high and four feet wide\, with a recreation\, highly carrollized\, of a sitting room on the floor in front of it with miniature furniture and even a tiny tool set perhaps much like the one Lewis Carroll had made as a boy. After a hearty southwestern style lunch\, we were treated to a live performance of Gerald Fried’s chamber piece “The Chess Game” for narrator\, flute/piccolo\, oboe (played by the composer himself)\, violin\, cello\, and piano. Fried\, a composer of four symphonies and three operas\, is perhaps best known for his works for film and television\, including the score for Stanley Kubrick’s “Paths of Glory” and many “Star Trek” episodes \, including the Alice-themed “Shore Leave.” The Chess Game was a brilliant musical piece with narration of three scenes from Through the Looking-Glass: the running in-place scene\, how the flowers protect themselves\, and the two bumbling knights. It reminded one of us of the early 1950s Omnibus performance of Peter and the Wolf. Jonathan Dixon read the text passages introducing and separating the music\, which itself was simply wonderful – its perky leitmotifs and sequences capturing in another kind of language the quirkiness and beauty of Carrroll’s text. Next\, Jonathan Dixon\, Andrew Ogus\, and Mark Burstein treated us to an account of how the LCSNA produced a hardback book of La Guida di Bragia with illustrations by Dixon. It all started with a conversation Jonathan Dixon had with Prof. Morton N. Cohen in 1992. Cohen suggested that the society publish Carroll’s La Guida di Bragia\, which had only been published once before\, in the Christmas 1931 number of the British magazine The Queen. The original manuscript had been sold at Sotheby’s from a lot identified as “the property of Major C.H.W. Dodgson” on Feb. 14\, 1929 and much later was bought by the American pencil magnate\, Alfred Berol\, who gave it to the Fales Library of New York University with the rest of his magnificent Carroll collection. Former LCSNA president Peter Heath wrote an introduction to the text which with a transcription of the play and illustrations by Jonathan Dixon was published in the Knight Letter\, no. 61\, Fall 1999. Some years later\, Marvin Taylor at the Fales Library was able to supply us with digital copies of the pages of Carroll’s original text\, which we included in our 2007 hardback edition. To conclude the meeting\, LCSNA members and local attendees were treated to a private (and hilarious) performance of La Guida di Bragia. A remarkable achievement\, capping off a remarkable meeting.
