in the sequel, she stepped through a mirror to find an entirely new wonderland populated by anthropomorphic red and white chessmen.

so interesting that the black was changed to RED.

It makes sense that the two dominant symbols of the story are the mirror and the chess board—after all, the pieces on a board at the start of play are a reflection of one another.

as are chess & mirrors two recurring symbols in the crumbs.

Carroll’s notation displays a flagrant disregard for the basic rules of chess. At best, it was viewed as a careless game

oh, that's gonna drive the chessfags nuts...

As the chess-problem…has puzzled some of my readers, it may be well to explain that it is correctly worked out, so far as the moves are concerned. The alternation of Red and White is perhaps not so strictly observed as it might be, and the “castling” of the three Queens is merely a way of saying that they entered the palace; -L.C.

Coincidence that it's being held this year in Turin, the Devil's City?

Turin Is Getting a Devil of a Time : Religion: The city has a reputation as a haven for Satan and his disciples. The Catholic Church has six exorcists on duty.

June 17, 1990 | STEPHEN R. WILSON | ASSOCIATED PRESS

But Turin has a darker reputation as a haven for Satan and his disciples.

There is no proof, of course. But what is certain is that the city has six official exorcists, an underground corps of devil worshipers and thousands of people dealing in the occult.

Specialists in the occult maintain that Turin forms part of two "magic" triangles representing good and evil.

Along with Prague, Czechoslovakia, and Lyon, France, the city is reputedly a center of "white magic," a positive force. Turin is also said to join London and San Francisco as a stronghold of "black magic," which is considered harmful or diabolic.

"Turin has always been a place of great spiritual and magical ferment," says Giuditta Dembech, a journalist and author of the book "Torino: Citta Magica" (Turin: Magic City). "It has some of the qualities of places like Mecca, Jerusalem and Lourdes."

The city first attracted widespread notoriety as a devil's playground four years ago when Turin's archbishop at the time, Cardinal Anastasio Ballestrero, appointed six official exorcists.

In fact, the interest in Satan's possible presence in Turin is only part of a broader discussion going on in the Roman Catholic Church about the personification of evil referred to variously in Scripture and church teaching as the prince of this world, the power of darkness, the ancient serpent, the slanderer, the fallen angel, the adversary, Lucifer or Beelzebub.

In naming exorcists, the Turin Archdiocese was responding to a plea by Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, the Prefect of the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, for more formal church control over the practice of exorcism.
