Lecture & Seminar on Alice in Wonderland, Universität Leipzig 13.&15.12.2016

I am excited to return to my alma mater to lecture on Lewis Carroll & Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and what potential for original research historicist and interdisciplinary approaches to literature have to offer. In an accompanying seminar I will explore the aspects of play and game in children’s literature through Lewis Carroll’s interest in the two fields. Examining Alice and children’s literature as play or game, the seminar will explore what is being played with, by what means, and what insights into Victorian culture this can offer.
