Humpty Dumpty's Explanation
Humpty Dumpty’s Explanation Humpty Dumpty’s explanation of the first verse of Jabberwocky from Through the Looking Glass and Alice’s Adventures there. 'You seem very clever at explaining words, Sir,' said Alice. 'Would you kindly tell me the meaning of the poem called "Jabberwocky"?' 'Let's hear it,' said Humpty Dumpty. 'I can explain all the poems that were ever invented--and a good many that haven't been invented just yet.' This sounded very hopeful, so Alice repeated the first verse: 'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. 'That's enough to begin with,' Humpty Dumpty interrupted: 'there are plenty of hard words there. "BRILLIG" means four o'clock in the afternoon--the time when you begin BROILING things for dinner.' 'That'll do very well,' said Alice: and "SLITHY"?' 'Well, "SLITHY" means "lithe and slimy." "Lithe" is the same as "active." You see it's like a portmanteau--there are two meanings packed up into one word.' 'I see it now,' Alice remarked thoughtfully: 'and what are "TOVES"?' 'Well, "TOVES" are something like badgers--they're something like lizards--and they're something like corkscrews.' 'They must be very curious looking creatures.' 'They are that,' said Humpty Dumpty: 'also they make their nests under sun-dials--also they live on cheese.' 'Andy what's the "GYRE" and to "GIMBLE"?' 'To "GYRE" is to go round and round like a gyroscope. To "GIMBLE" is to make holes like a gimlet.' 1 'And "THE WABE" is the grass-plot round a sun-dial, I suppose?' said Alice, surprised at her own ingenuity.

For instance, soon after Alice had entered the world created by Gilbert Adair beyond a needle's eye, she witnessed how kittens and puppies, followed by cats and dogs, fell out of the sky: 'Hundreds of cats and dogs .... were pouring down as far as she could see. Once they landed, they would all make a rush for lower ground, gathering there in huddles --- "or puddles, I suppose one ought to say" --- .... ' [TNE 41] In Needle's Eye World, one could accordingly say It rained cats arui dogs, and mean it literally.

ARTICLE: Jan Susina: Playing Around in Lewis Carroll's Alice Books
Playing Around in Lewis Carroll’s Alice Books • Jan Susina Mathematician Charles Dodgson’s love of play and his need for rules came together in his use of popular games as part of the structure of the two famous children’s books, Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, he wrote under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. The author of this article looks at the interplay between the playing of such games as croquet and cards and the characters and events of the novels and argues that, when reading Carroll (who took a playful approach even in his academic texts), it is helpful to understand games and game play. Charles Dodgson, more widely known by his pseudonym Lewis Carroll, is perhaps one of the more playful authors of children’s literature. In his career, as a children’s author and as an academic logician and mathematician, and in his personal life, Carroll was obsessed with games and with various forms of play. While some readers are surprised by the seemingly split personality of Charles Dodgson, the serious mathematician, and Lewis Carroll, the imaginative author of children’s books, it was his love of play and games and his need to establish rules and guidelines that effectively govern play that unite these two seemingly disparate facets of Carroll’s personality. Carroll’s two best-known children’s books—Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking- Glass and What Alice Found There (1871)—use popular games as part of their structure. In Victoria through the Looking-Glass, Florence Becker Lennon has gone so far as to suggest about Carroll that “his life was a game, even his logic, his mathematics, and his singular ordering of his household and other affairs.

'Twas Brillig, and the Slithy Toves Did Gyre and Gimble in the Wabe: All Mimsy Were the Borogoves, and the Mome Raths Outgrabe
The Jabberwocky By Lewis Carroll 'Twas brillig, and the slithy* toves* Did gyre* and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy* were the borogoves*, And the mome raths outgrabe*. "Beware the Jabberwock, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun The frumious* Bandersnatch!" He took his vorpal sword in hand: Long time the manxome foe he sought- So rested he by the Tumtum* tree, And stood awhile in thought. And, as in uffish* thought he stood, The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, Came whiffling through the tulgey wood, And burbled as it came! One, two! One, two! And through and through The vorpal blade went snicker-snack*! He left it dead, and with its head He went galumphing* back. "And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? Come to my arms, my beamish* boy! O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!" He chortled* in his joy. 'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. slithy: is a variant of "sleathy", meaning slovenly (untidy, messy, lazy); a combination of 'lithe and slimy' - lithe meaning flexible, graceful. toves: rhymes with "groves” (like the pine grove in Bridge to Terabithia). Humpty Dumpty says toves are 'something like lizards and something like corkscrews. They make their nest under sundials and live on cheese.’ gyre: means to turn or whirl around. mimsy: is a nonsense word. Humpty Dumpty says it is a combination of "flimsy and miserable". borogoves: the first O is said like the O in worry.

Ambivalent Texts, the Borderline, and the Sense of Nonsense in Lewis Carroll’S “Jabberwocky”
International Journal of IJES English Studies UNIVERSITY OF MURCIA http://revistas.um.es/ijes Ambivalent texts, the borderline, and the sense of nonsense in Lewis Carroll’s “Jabberwocky” MICHAEL TEMPLETON Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University (Saudi Arabia) Received: 13/11/2017. Accepted: 18/08/2018. ABSTRACT Taking Carroll‘s ―Jabberwocky‖ as emblematic of a text historically enjoyed by both children and adults, this article seeks to place the text in what Kristeva defines as the borderline between language and subjectivity to theorize a realm in which ambivalent texts emerge as such. The fact that children‘s literature remains largely trapped in the literary–didactic split in which these texts are understood as either learning materials and primers for literacy, or as examples of poetic or historical modernist discourse. This article situates Carroll‘s text in the theories of language, subjectivity, and clinical discourse toward a more complex reading of a children‘s poem, one that finds a point of intersection between the adult and the child reader. KEYWORDS: Ambivalent text, The borderline, Children‘s literature, Nonsense poems. 1. INTRODUCTION Maria Nikolajeka demonstrates that children‘s literature occupies a middle place in the world of literary studies. Children‘s literature is either studied exclusively as a didactic tool—a literary form that exists entirely to provide stepping stones toward literacy for young readers—or else children‘s literature is understood as a projection of the author‘s imagination, a nostalgic portrait of some feature of the author‘s own youth. This is commonly referred to as the ―literary–didactic split‖ (Nikolajeka, 2005: xi).

Thinking Activity 6.2: Nonsense Words Lewis Carroll, “Jabberwocky” ’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. “Beware the Jabberwock, my son!

In Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, Humpty Dumpty recites this poem to Alice. She goes on to ask for an explanation, which he patiently gives her: "It seems very pretty," she said when she had finished it, "but it's rather hard to understand!" (You see she didn't like to confess, even to herself, that she couldn't make it out at all.) "Somehow it seems to fill my head with ideas -- only I don't exactly know what they are! However, somebody killed something: that's clear, at any rate --" … "You seem very clever at explaining words, Sir," said Alice.

Charles Dodgson) is a language specialist who has verifiably altered our lexicon and created fictional worlds that serve as commentary on our ability to effectively create meaning within our existing communicative systems. This ability to create language and illustrations of everyday language issues can be traced back to his personal quest for order and meaning; the logician and teacher has uncovered the accepted language and language practices that can result in verbal confusion and ineffective speech, as well as the accepted practices that can help us to avoid verbal confusion and social conflict—all of which reveals a theorist in his own right, one who aides our understanding of signification and pragmatic social skills. Dodgson’s fictive representations of our ordinary language concerns serve as concrete examples of contextual language interactions; therefore, they serve as appropriate material for the teaching of rhetorical theory and, most especially, language arts.

Alice Through the Looking-Glass
ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING-GLASS Alice Through the Looking-Glass – Resource Pack Welcome to the Britten Sinfonia interactive family concert 2018! We are very much looking forward to performing for you at the festival. The Concert This concert has been devised by musician and presenter Jessie Maryon Davies. Each concert will last approximately 50 minutes. Jessie will explore the story and main characters with the audience, assisted by a chamber quintet from the Britten Sinfonia. The narrative will be interwoven and brought to life with fantastic pieces of classical music, songs and actions. Participation The audience will be encouraged to participate fully throughout the concerts. We will sing songs, create actions together and make a soundscape. The better you know the story, the more fun we can have exploring the main themes in the concert. The story We don’t expect you to read the whole book before the show, but it would be very helpful to have an overview of the story and to read the chapters on the specific characters we have selected to feature in our show. Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There is the sequel to Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and was written by Lewis Carroll in 1871. The sequel is set six months later than the original, so rather than a balmy summer’s day in the garden, we find Alice in the depths of a wintry November afternoon. She is playing with her two kittens and falls into a deep sleep, dreaming of a world beyond her mirror. This book explores her journey across Looking-Glass Land, as she tries to discover the mystery of The Jabberwock, and plays a giant game of chess to become the new Queen.
