The Lewis Carroll Society of North America (LCSNA) is a learned, not-for-profit organization[1] dedicated to furthering interest in the life and works of the Rev.
[2] Founded in Princeton in 1974[3] by a small group including Morton Cohen, Martin Gardner, Edward Guiliano, Michael Patrick Hearn, and Elizabeth Sewell, the Society has been meeting twice a year since then in cities around the U.S. and Canada.
In 2015, they put on a week-long celebration, Alice150, of the 150th anniversary of the publication of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, in New York City.
[4][5] Speakers have included both leading Carroll scholars such as Morton Cohen, Charlie Lovett, Edward Guiliano, Mark Burstein, and Elizabeth Sewell, and Carroll admirers such as Kathryn Beaumont, Christina Björk, Lou Bunin, David del Tredici, Michael Dirda, Adam Gopnik, Adolph Green, Douglas Hofstadter, Iain McCaig, American McGee, Barry Moser, Joyce Carol Oates, Jon Scieszka, William Jay Smith, Raymond Smullyan, and Craig Yoe.
Twice a year the LCSNA issues the Knight Letter,[8] an illustrated magazine with substantive articles, reviews, meeting reports, correspondence, and information about Carrollian events, books, products, scholarship, exhibits, media, websites, and the like.
