Due to the imaginative nature of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, it has been commonplace among scholars, students, readers, and most individuals familiar with the novel to wonder about the motive behind the unique perspective, or if the motive was ever intentional. This thesis explores the intentionality, or lack thereof, of the motives behind the novel along with elements of a close reading of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. It additionally explores the origins of the concept of childhood along with the qualifications in relation to time period, culture, location, and age. It identifies common stereotypes and presumptions within the subject of mental illness. It aims to achieve a connection between the contents of Carroll’s novel with

  • Edition 1 | 2018-2019
    Message from the President Paul Helfrich, President & CEO, Dayton Performing Arts Alliance Welcome to Dayton Ballet’s epic production of Dracula: Bloodlines! We’re glad you’re here. On July 1, we celebrated the sixth birthday of the historic merger of the Dayton Ballet, Dayton Opera, and Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra into one operating entity, the first and only merger of its kind in the United States. As we begin our seventh year of working together, I’d like to take a brief look back at some of our activities and accomplishments in the past season. We saw some exciting audience growth, with subscription sales up from the prior year by 7%, single-ticket sales up by 13%, and overall attendance up by 7%. Strong sales for productions including the Verdi Requiem, Swan Lake, Turandot, and a pops series concert with Jackie Evancho played a key role in these encouraging numbers. We thanked some departing staff members for a job well done and welcomed a few newcomers to the team. Pam Eyink and Ellen Bagley retired from our staff after 35 and 18 years, respectively, of outstanding service. We also said farewell to our longtime Ballet Production Manager, Stacie Bigl. Milena Treer now keeps all in order for Dayton Opera in her role as Artistic Administrator–Opera, and Cory Wilhite is the new Artistic Administrator for Dayton Ballet. We’re also pleased to welcome Emily Duffin in her new role as Production Stage Manager. In other staff news, Jeremy Davit succeeded Amber Rose as Chief Development Officer, and we also welcomed Dennis TenWolde and Karen Dempsey Volke to our fundraising team.

  • Progress Report #1
    Welcome to the first progress report for the 2021 World Fantasy Convention! We are pressing on, in times of Covid, and continuing to plan a wonderful in person convention in Montréal, Canada. We have a stunning guest list and a superlative team for both planning and the creation of the gathering not to be missed. We will be at the Hôtel Bonaventure, an iconic landmark in the city. The hotel is located in the heart of downtown and just outside the Old Port of Montréal. It is near major roads, right across the street from Gare Centrale, the Montréal train station, and is directly connected to two Metro stations, making it easily accessible for both motorists and public transport users. We will be able to enjoy a lavish 2.5 acres of gardens with streams inhabited by ducks and fish as well as a year-round outdoor heated pool. Our committee is busy excitedly planning a convention that will surpass your every expectation. Our theme will be YA fantasy. The field of young adult fantasy has grown from being popular to becoming a dominant category of 21st century literature, bringing millions of new readers to hundreds of new authors. We are working on a diverse program that will explore this genre that celebrates fantasy fiction in all of its forms: epic, dark, paranormal, urban, and other varieties. We invite members to share what they enjoy, what they have learned, what they have written themselves, and what they hope to see coming in the field of young adult fantasy fiction. We look forward to seeing you all in Montréal! Diane Lacey Chair Diversity Statement The committee for the 2021 World Fantasy Convention is unconditionally devoted to promoting diversity within our convention.
