SUMMARY:Book Club: The Pamphlets of Lewis Carroll\, Volume 6 & other works
DESCRIPTION:Watch The Pamphlets of Lewis Carroll\, Volume 6 on YouTube  \n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Charlie Lovett\, EditorHost: Heather SimmonsTime: 3:00pm [EST] \nThe Pamphlets of Lewis Carroll\, Volume 6: A Miscellany of Works on Alice\, Theater\, Religion\, Science\, and More. Published by the Lewis Carroll Society of North America/University Press of Virginia\, 2021 \nVolume 6 is divided into: Theater; Religion and Morality; Science and Mathematics; The Alice Books; Circular Letters; Photography; Letters and Postage; Humor; Stories; Undergraduate Papers; Poetry; Games\, Puzzles\, and Related Materials; and Miscellaneous\, along with informative illustrations\, appendices\, and a bibliography. \nThe sixth and final volume in the series collects over one hundred items which Lewis Carroll wrote on a wide variety of subjects. Drawn from separately published pamphlets\, contributions to periodicals\, and unpublished manuscripts\, many of these items have not been reprinted since the nineteenth century\, and more than a dozen are newly discovered. Dodgson here opines on the debate over children acting on stage\, religious and moral matters\, university affairs\, and more. His letters to the press cover a range of topics from the eight-hour workday to the problem of stray dogs in London to life on the island of Tristan da Cunha. This volume greatly expands our view of Carroll and shows him as a social activist\, moral philosopher\, and maverick. \nAbout Charlie Lovett\nCharlie Lovett\, a lifelong Carrollian scholar and collector\, as well as educator\, playwright\, and New York Times bestselling author\, provides detailed historical background and context for these writings with in-depth essays explaining why Dodgson wrote what he did and how others reacted to these writings at the time. \nOther Carroll related work in progress by Charlie includes: \n\nLewis Carroll Formed by Faith\, slated for publication by UVA Press in 2021.\nA Bibliography of the Works of Charles L. Dodgson (Lewis Carroll). Editor\, Charlie Lovett. To be published by the Lewis Carroll Society of North America. Unknown publication date. The book will revise and update information in the Lewis Carroll Handbook\, and add much new information and items that have come to light since the handbook’s most recent revision (1979). The work will be organized as a traditional bibliography\, including sections on separately printed items\, contributions to books\, contributions to periodicals\, cyclostyled items\, and miscellaneous other items. The purpose of the book will be to give both scholars and collectors a full and accurate description of the complete printed works of Lewis Carroll published in his lifetime. Much of the work in compiling this volume has been severely hampered by COVID-19.

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.

SUMMARY:LCSNA Keepsake Printing @ the Common Press
DESCRIPTION:The folks at Penn’s Common Press are creating a 2019 LCSNA Keepsake for the Society that you will letterpress print. We will meet at the Orrery Pavilion\, 6th Floor and make the short walk to the press in small groups. \nCommon Press is the letterpress and book arts studio at the University of Pennsylvania. With printing presses dating from the 1850’s to the 1960’s and a collection of wood and metal type available for use\, the facility provides an environment to learn about the history of the book\, to creatively experiment with hands-on analog technologies\, to explore the origins of digital typography\, and to use the constraints of the letterpress print shop to spark new ways of thinking about their research in any field. Common Press supports movement between digital and manual image making\, and exists to support teaching and to facilitate creative projects across the university. Common Press is a collaboration of Penn Libraries\, Penn Design\, and Kelly Writers House. \nTickets will be provided at 15 minute intervals to enable all to have a relaxed time at the Common Press.

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. He has written or edited eight books on Lewis Carroll\, with two more on the way. He is a former president of the LCSNA. He curated the exhibition Alice Live! at Lincoln Center in New York in 2015. \nIn the fall of 2008\, Estelle Markel-Joyet began working as a rare materials cataloguer at the American Philosophical Society. 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). Prior to coming to the University of Pennsylvania in 2006\, McKnight was the Director of the Rare Book and Manuscript Library and Head of the Digital Collections Program at McGill University Libraries. He worked for McGill Libraries for fifteen years. McKnight possesses a particular knowledge and interest in the history of late 19th and 20th century avant-garde publishing. Recently he curated two major exhibitions\, Wise Men Fished Here: A Centenary Exhibition in Honor of the Gotham Book Mart: 1920 – 2020 and Experiment: Printing the Canadian Imagination. \nRiley McGuire is a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of English at the University of Pennsylvania. He is currently working on a dissertation project entitled Figures of Speech: The Relational and Generic Forms of Vocal Impairment in Victorian Culture. 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. Ellie houses this collection that has been in her family for over 115 years. Her specialty interest is collecting Wonderland/Carroll teapots. She claims to have the largest such collection in the world with approximately 200 teapots. She is a Social Work professor at Salisbury University and a mental health therapist for individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing.

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.
