Timed to coincide with the 150th anniversary of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, this event is primarily aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers, although other scholars and the general public will be welcome
We are delighted to announce that Professor Diane Purkiss of Oxford University, who is also a creative writer of fantasy fiction (under the pseudonym ‘Tobias Druitt’), will give the Keynote Lecture, five years after her inaugural lecture at the Sussex Centre in 2010.

Other speakers may include 
Alice illustrator John Vernon Lord and creative writer and storyteller Steve O’Brien. The day will close with a series of performances from professional storytellers which engage with the theme of wonder lands.
