SUMMARY:Mothers and Fathers of the Digital Archive: The Endangered Archives Programme in Iquitos\, Peru
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California \nAcross North American and European imaginaries\, the Amazon River Basin has figured as both a region rich in “natural resources” ready for the taking\, and\, consequently\, a geography of lands and peoples in need of saving. Both Amazonian exploration and salvation have been characterized by a hyper-masculine discourse of evangelists\, explorers\, and entrepreneurs seeking both riches and redemption in the jungle. But Amazonian cultures have long generated their own counter-narratives\, documented in oral histories\, visual cultures\, and through spaces such as the Biblioteca Amazónica\, a library located in Iquitos\, Peru\, which houses the second-largest collection of Amazonian maps\, images\, and texts in the world. This talk describes an alternate set of exploration and saving practices\, framed through the lens of a feminist ethics of care.   \nSince 2020\, Dr. Smith and Dr. Silverstein have worked to secure funding for and supervise a project to create an open access digital archive of materials housed in the Biblioteca Amazónica. They describe how this process was enacted alongside practices of mothering their own children\, nurturing an inexperienced research team to develop skills in digital archiving\, and negotiating with the “fathers”—Augustinian priests—who controlled access to the archive. In describing this process\, they engage with a series of questions: What are the complexities of digitally preserving endangered cultural objects as foreigners in a region where endangerment has been produced by patriarchal ideals? How can mothering serve as a metaphor and a practice for programs like the EAP? What does one gain by bringing mothering into the discussion of archival preservation? The speakers will touch on their work with the Biblioteca Amazónica\, their relationship with the Spanish priests—the fathers of the archive—who are its de facto custodians\, the mothers on their team whom they accommodated through birthing and child rearing\, and what it takes to manage a project from thousands of miles away. \nAn in-person and virtual presentation by Amanda Smith\, Associate Professor of Latin American Literature and Culture\, University of California\, Santa Cruz and Sydney Silverstein\, Assistant Professor of Population and Public Health Sciences\, Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine\, Ohio \n **Co-presented & co-hosted by The American Trust for The British Library \nTo register for the online event\, click here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_aBv1gTPITqWzZ3v–8-VCw#/registration

SUMMARY:Paul F. Gehl on Bob Middleton\, The Designer-Craftsman Par Excellence
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Caxton Club \nMarch Midday Program \n \nRobert Hunter Middleton (1898-1985) was a Caxton Club stalwart for half a century. He is now remembered primarily as a pioneer in the revival of the great engraver on wood\, Thomas Bewick. In his own day\, however\, Middleton was best known as the prolific designer of types for the Ludlow Typograph Company of Chicago. In 1985\, the Caxton Club published a retrospective of Middleton’s career as RHM: The Man and His Letters\, still the standard reference. In this talk\, Paul Gehl will illustrate how Middleton embodied (and wrote about) the relationship of fine press printing and other craft practices to design for mass-market\, industrial scale printing. \nPaul is Curator Emeritus at the Newberry Library. At the Newberry\, he processed the Middleton archive\, and after retirement he authored a book on Middleton’s early career as type designer. Just this year he edited a volume with the title\, The Designer-Craftsman Speaks: Writings of Robert Hunter Middleton. \nBoth of Paul’s books and the Caxton Club’s memorial volume will be available for purchase upon registering for the program. See details below. Prices include tax and shipping. \nRegister today. \nFor more information and to register\, follow the link: https://caxtonclub.org/event-6090568/Registration \nEven if you can’t attend at the scheduled time\, if you’re interested\, please register. After the program\, we’ll send an email to all registrants\, asking if you’d like a link to the complete recording. That way you can see the program even if you couldn’t attend live\, ran into technical issues\, or simply wanted to watch it again. \n

SUMMARY:Oren Margolis on Aldus Manutius
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Caxton Club. \nMarch Midday Program \nDr. Oren Margolis\, associate professor of Renaissance Studies at the University of East Anglia in Norwich \n \n“So\, are you going out with that Aldus guy again?” \n“I don’t know. Not sure I like that type.” \nAldus. Aldine Press. Italics. Octavo. All immensely influential in the history of printing innovations. So let’s Zoom to Venice in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries to meet that fascinating and exacting printer\, publisher\, and nurturer of writing talent: Aldus Manutius. \nOur guide on this journey will be Dr. Oren Margolis\, associate professor of Renaissance Studies at the University of East Anglia in Norwich\, a UNESCO City of Literature. Much published\, Margolis created an exhibition called Aldus Manutius: The Struggle and the Dream at Oxford’s Bodleian Library and is the author of Aldus Manutius: The Invention of the Publisher (Reaktion Books\, 2023). \nEven though he was awarded his PhD from Oxford and his MA in Medieval History from King’s College London\, Oren speaks passable American\, having earned his BA from that traditional Big Ten school the University of Southern California. \nAldus printed incunabula\, was instrumental in publishing and printing works of Desiderius Erasmus\, and in a remarkable feat that outshone anything Nostradamus forecast\, once predicted that he would be the subject of a well-attended Caxton Club meeting. Don’t let Aldus down. \nEven if you can’t attend at the scheduled time\, if you’re interested\, please register. After the program\, we’ll send an email to all registrants\, asking if you’d like a link to the complete recording.

SUMMARY:Kevin Mac Donnell on the History of Collecting Mark Twain
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Grolier Club \nIn connection with the public exhibition: A First-Class Fool: Mark Twain and Humor\, from the collection of Susan Jaffe Tane\, which runs in the ground-floor Exhibition Hall from January 15 – April 5\, 2025\, Kevin Mac Donnell will speak on the history of Mark Twain collecting\, beginning in the 1880s down to the present day. He will highlight the major collectors\, including two who communicated directly with Twain himself\, and talk about how various books\, letters\, and manuscripts entered the market (or did not). He will also discuss how Twain collecting trends have evolved\, and speculate on where Twain collecting might be headed. \nThis is a Virtual Lecture available on YouTube. Register to receive a link here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/virtual-lecture-kevin-mac-donnell-on-mark-twain-collecting-tickets-1259663430229?aff=ebdsoporgprofile \nAbout the Exhibition \nA First-Class Fool: Mark Twain and Humor examines the humorist Samuel Clemens\, who crafted the great “Mark Twain” persona. Twain identified as a “first-class fool\,” capturing his dual literary role as a simple\, folksy author and speaker on the one hand\, and an intelligent\, cultured\, and nuanced literary craftsman on the other. Twain worked carefully to construct his public persona\, and his legacy continues to influence humorists to the present day. With more than 120 works drawn from the private collection of Susan Jaffe Tane\, A First-Class Fool presents first and rare editions of Twain’s published works\, including presentation copies\, first periodical appearances\, and uncommon variants; books from Twain’s library and other personal effects; autograph letters and manuscripts; photographs; and a wide variety of ephemera. Many of these items are displayed for the first time in this exhibition. An accompanying book\, published by the Grolier Club\, features scholarly essays edited by Kevin MacDonnell.

DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by FABS \nIn the Cover of Darkness: Three Works from the Press of Isaiah Thomas. \nThis year represents the 250th Anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord.  While our nation celebrates that momentous event\, few will be celebrating another significant event that happened three days earlier.  On April 16\, 1775\, Revolutionary patriot and printer Isaiah Thomas snuck his printing press out of Boston and into Worcester in the middle of the night to avoid British confiscation.  It remains there to this day.  Thomas would later go on to found the American Antiquarian Society\, which remains in Worcester today\, and is one of our nation’s most cherished treasures.  Early Americana Collector (and AAS Councillor) Doug Brown will share three fascinating items from his collection\, all relating to Thomas\, as a way to tell this important story.   These items include an issue of Thomas’s Massachusetts Spy from 1774\, a first edition of his book\, The History of Printing in America\,inscribed to a co-founder of AAS\, and Thomas’s book plate\, which was designed by Paul Revere.  These items will also be part of a new member Grolier Club exhibit later this Spring. \nDouglas S. Brown is a seasoned executive with over thirty-five years of senior leadership experience in law\, medicine and government. He currently is a partner at Manatt Health\, a multidisciplinary\, integrated professional services firm. Doug collects antiquarian books and manuscripts of early America\, and his entry Fighting for The Crown Jewel: America\, 1735-1775\, was selected as the winner of the 2024 Ticknor Society Book Collecting Prize. He is a member of the Grolier Club and the American Antiquarian Society\, and currently serves on the AAS Council. \nTo receive links and announcements from the FABS Handpress Group\, contact Jennifer Larson (info@fabsocieties.org)

SUMMARY:When Mountain Lions Are Neighbors
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California \nWildness beats in the heart of California’s urban areas. In Los Angeles\, residents are rallying to build one of the largest wildlife crossings in the world because of the plight of one lonely mountain lion named P-22. Porpoises cavort in San Francisco Bay again because of a grassroots effort to clean up a waterway that was once a toxic mess. And on the Facebook campus in Silicon Valley\, Mark Zuckerberg and his staff have provided a home for an endearing family of wild gray foxes. Through actions as sweeping as citizen science initiatives and as instantaneous as social media posts\, a movement of diverse individuals and communities is taking action to recast nature as an integral part of our everyday lives. When Mountain Lions Are Neighbors explores this evolving dynamic between humans and animals\, including remarkable stories like the journey of the wolf OR-7 and how Californians are welcoming wolves back to the state after a ninety-year absence\, how park staff and millions of visitors rallied to keep Yosemite’s famed bears wild\, and many more tales from across the state. Written by Beth Pratt-Bergstrom of the National Wildlife Federation\, these inspiring stories celebrate a new paradigm for wildlife conservation: coexistence. \n An in-person and virtual presentation by Beth Pratt\, wildlife advocate\, author\, and California Regional Executive Director for the National Wildlife Federation. \nTo register\, click here.

SUMMARY:Death of a Bookman: The Publishing Misadventures of Charles Rideal
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Book Club of Washington \nThe Annual Meeting encompasses a brief business meeting followed by a special presentation. A keepsake created for the occasion will also be featured and light refreshments served. The business portion includes electing officers\, approving new board members\, and presenting the Monroe Award and student book collecting awards. \nThis year’s speaker is Dr. Solveig C. Robinson\, who will be presenting “Death of a Bookman: The Publishing Misadventures of Charles Rideal”. \nIn January 1900\, the New York Times reported that Charles Rideal\, Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and a “[man] of ideas and enterprise\,” had established the Abbey Press to publish “fine and high-class works.” Not quite 30 years later\, the paper reported Rideal was dead in federal custody. What had happened? \nThis talk will trace the publishing misadventures of Rideal (1858–1929)\, an author and publisher on both sides of the Atlantic. Active in London in the 1890s\, he conducted two small publishing houses and served as editor of a range of periodicals\, from a leading nursing journal to magazines dedicated to palm-reading and lady bicyclists. And then\, under shadowy circumstances\, he abandoned London and decamped to New York\, where he began to recreate the literary world he had left behind. Initially successful\, Rideal’s new life also took a terrible turn\, leading to arson\, assault\, fraud\, and ultimately death in prison. \nDr. Solveig C. Robinson is an Associate Professor of English at Pacific Lutheran University and has been the Director of the Publishing & Printing Arts Program at PLU since 2001. She is the author of The Book in Society: An Introduction to Print Culture (2014) and A Serious Occupation: Literary Criticism by Victorian Women Writers (2003) and numerous peer-reviewed and invited articles.  \nFor more information and to register\, follow this link: https://www.bookclubofwashington.org/events-1/annual-meeting-with-presentation-by-solveig-c-robinson \n  \n

SUMMARY:Background Artist: The Life and Work of Tyrus Wong
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California \nYou might not know the name Tyrus Wong\, but you probably know some of the images he created\, including scenes from the beloved Disney classic Bambi. Yet when he came to this country as a child\, Tyrus was an illegal immigrant locked up in an offshore detention center. How did he go on to a long and prosperous career drawing animation cels\, storyboards\, and greeting cards that shaped the American imagination? \nBackground Artist shares the inspiring story of Tyrus Wong’s remarkable 106-year life and showcases his wide array of creative work\, from the paintings and fine art prints he made working for Roosevelt’s Works Progress Administration to the unique handmade kites he designed and flew on the Santa Monica beach. It tells how he came to the United States as a ten-year-old boy in 1920\, at a time when the Chinese Exclusion Act barred him from legal citizenship. Yet it also shows how Wong found American communities that welcomed him and nurtured his artistic talent. Covering everything from his work as a studio sketch artist for Warner Bros. to the best-selling Christmas cards he designed for Hallmark and other greeting card companies\, this book celebrates a multi-talented Asian American artist and pioneer. \nAn in-person and virtual presentation by Karen Fang\, film scholar\, cultural critic\, author\, and professor\, Department of English\, University of Houston. \nTo register\, click here. \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Information-Graphic Masterpieces: Designing Data Stories
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California. \nInformation graphics transform data into compelling visual narratives\, illuminating insights that might otherwise remain hidden. From the earliest printed charts and maps to today’s innovative designs\, these visuals bridge art and science\, helping us engage with complex phenomena. Often featured within books—whether rare historical volumes or contemporary publications—information graphics elevate how we understand the world around us. \nThe presentation explores extraordinary examples of these visual tools\, spanning from rare Enlightenment works to monumental statistical atlases. Alongside examining their unique aesthetic flourishes\, this talk delves into the stories behind their creation and highlights key contributions from California. Many of the discussed publications will be on display for in-person attendees\, showcasing the remarkable craftsmanship and vision that bring data to life. \nAn in-person and virtual presentation by RJ Andrews\, author of Info We Trust\, series editor of Information Graphic Visionaries\, and consulting data storyteller. \nTo register\, click here.

SUMMARY:Ian Gadd On A History of the Stationers Company
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Caxton Club \nMay Midday Program \n \nJoin Caxton Club members and Ian Gadd\, Professor in English Literature\, Bath Spa University\, UK\, for his talk on the “History of the Stationers Company.” \nWell\, here comes another of those Johnny-come-lately organizations that seem to pop up now and then. The Worshipful Company of Stationers in the City of London didn’t even get going until 1403 and wasn’t recognized with a royal charter until 1557. Practically yesterday. \nYet somehow this ragtag group of limners\, bookbinders\, booksellers\, and text writers seemed to make a go of it. They came up with this strange idea of a “copyright” and were early adopters of those new fangled moveable types. \nNot sure that there’s enough “English literature” produced since the fifteenth century to weave into a bookish tale\, but our speaker\, Dr. Ian Gadd from Bath Spa University will give it a go in a generously illustrated presentation about the History of the Stationers’ Company — of which he is a freeman. \nThough he was educated at Oxford and the University of Edinburgh he speaks enough American to be a faculty member of Virginia’s Rare Book School. He was editor of the first volume of The History of Oxford University Press and is general editor of the Cambridge Edition of the Works of Jonathan Swift. \nSo don’t be stationary! Get moving and register today to join us at the Union League Club or to slip into this hot bubble Bath of a program at the Caxton Zoom Spa. (Towels not provided.) \nTo register\, click here\, This is a hybrid event. \n

SUMMARY:The Gilded Edge: Two Audacious Women and the Cyanide Love Triangle that Shook America
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California. \nNora May French and Carrie Sterling arrive at Carmel-by-the-Sea at the turn of the twentieth century with dramatically different ambitions. Nora\, a stunning\, brilliant\, impulsive writer in her early twenties\, seeks artistic recognition and Bohemian refuge among the most celebrated counterculturalists of the era. Carrie\, long-suffering wife of real estate developer George Sterling\, wants the opposite: a semblance of the stability she thought her advantageous marriage would offer\, threatened now that her philandering husband has taken to writing poetry. \nAfter her second abortion\, Nora finds herself in a desperate situation but is rescued by an invitation to stay with the Sterlings. To Carrie’s dismay\, George and the arrestingly beautiful poetess fall instantly into an affair. The ensuing love triangle\, which ultimately ends with the deaths of all three\, is more than just a wild love story and a fascinating forgotten chapter. It questions why Nora May—in her day a revered poet whose nationally reported suicide gruesomely inspired youths across the country to take their own lives\, with her verses in their pockets no less—has been rendered obscure by literary history. It depicts America at a turning point\, as the Gilded Age groans in its death throes and young people\, particularly women\, look toward a brighter\, more egalitarian future. In an unfortunately familiar development\, this vision proves to be a mirage. But women’s rage at the scam redefines American progressivism forever. \nA virtual presentation by Catherine Prendergast\, literary scholar\, author\, and professor emerita\, University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign. \nTo register\, click here.

SUMMARY:From Page to Stage and Back: The Theatrical Adventures of Writer and Illustrator Edward Gorey
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California. \nEdward Gorey’s creations as a book artist are distinctive: sparse\, oblique story lines paired with intricate\, oblique drawings. Yet even his most ardent fans may not know that the author-illustrator of The Beastly Baby\, The Doubtful Guest\, and The Curious Sofa also directed these and dozens of unpublished texts on stages from Cape Cod to Los Angeles. Gorey’s comrade-in-arts Carol Verburg helped make it happen. Now\, with privileged access to his archives\, she’s chronicled her friend’s underground career as a dramatist in The Theatrical Adventures of Edward Gorey. Verburg will talk about some of the hidden gems Gorey transformed from script to manuscript and vice versa\, and how his lifelong curiosity about form was shaped by his experiments with collaboration. \n An in-person and virtual presentation by Carol J. Verburg\, playwright\, theatre director\, and author. \nTo register\, click here.
