    " " " " " Alice in Wonderland " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " STUDY " GUIDE " " Designed and developed" " " by: Lexi Barnett" " : Meet the Author Lewis Carrol Lewis Carroll was the pseudonym of Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, a lecturer in mathematics at Christ Church, Oxford, who lived from 1832 to 1898. Carroll’s physical deformities, partial deafness, and irrepressible stammer made him an unlikely candidate for producing one of the most popular and enduring children’s fantasies in the English language. Carroll’s unusual appearance caused him to behave awkwardly around other adults, and his students at Oxford saw him as a stuffy and boring teacher. Underneath Carroll’s awkward exterior, however, lay a brilliant and imaginative artist. Carroll’s keen grasp of mathematics and logic inspired the linguistic humor and witty wordplay in his stories. Additionally, his unique understanding of children’s minds allowed him to compose imaginative fiction that appealed to young people. In 1856, Carroll and met the Liddell family. During their frequent afternoon boat trips on the river, Carroll told the Liddells fanciful tales. Alice quickly became Carroll’s favorite of the three girls, and he made her the subject of the stories that would later became Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. Almost ten years after first meeting the Liddells, Carroll compiled the stories and .1 submitted the completed manuscript for publication. pg If you lived all by yourself,Translating what would your housethe lookJabberwocky! like?

  • Alice in Wonderland Reasoning
    GEOMETRY Name: ________________________ Reasoning Activity – CHP. 2 Hour: _________ REASONING in LITERATURE Watch a short video clip from “Alice in Wonderland” : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oupIOmnLJs&feature=player_embedded • Watch for “awkward sayings”, instances of deductive/inductive reasoning, uses of Law of Detachment, or Law of Syllogism. Consider the following passage from Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter VII, “A Mad Tea Party.” "Then you should say what you mean." the March Hare went on. "I do," Alice hastily replied; "at least -- at least I mean what I say -- that's the same thing, you know." "Not the same thing a bit!" said the Hatter, "Why, you might just as well say that 'I see what I eat' is the same thing as 'I eat what I see'!" "You might just as well say," added the March Hare, "that 'I like what I get' is the same thing as 'I get what I like'!" "You might just as well say," added the Dormouse, who seemed to be talking in his sleep, "that 'I breathe when I sleep' is the same thing as 'I sleep when I breathe'!" "It is the same thing with you," said the Hatter, and here the conversation dropped, and the party sat silent for a minute. Lewis Carroll, the author of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, was a mathematics teacher who had fun playing around with logic. In this activity, you’ll investigate some basic ideas from logic and perhaps have some fun too. 1. Express each of the following statements from the Mad Tea Party as a CONDITIONAL in “if … then” form, CONVERSE, INVERSE and CONTRA POSTIVE.

  • Through the Looking-Glass: Translating Nonsense
    Through the Looking-Glass: Translating Nonsense In 1871, Lewis Carroll published Through the Looking- Glass, and What Alice Found There, a sequel to his hugely popular Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. In this sequel, Alice sees a world through her looking-glass which looks almost the same as her own world, but not quite. I'll tell you all my ideas about Looking-glass House. First, there's the room you can see through the glass – that's just the same as our drawing-room, only the things go the other way. [...] the books are something like our books, only the words go the wrong way[...] Alice goes through the mirror into the alternative world, which, not unlike Wonderland, is full of weird and wonderful characters. She finds a book there, which is “all in some language I don't know”. Below are the first few lines of the book – can you read it? Just the same, only things go the other way... ‘Some language I don’t know’, ‘the words go the wrong way’. Alice might almost be talking about the practice of translation, which makes a text accessible to a reader unfamiliar with the original language it was written in. And translation, too, can often feel like it is almost the same as the original, and yet somehow also different. We might say that translation is like Alice’s looking-glass: it reflects the original but in distorted and imaginative ways. Can you think of any other similes for translation? Translation is like ....................................................................................................................... because

  • Lewis Carroll 'The Jabberwocky'
    Lewis Carroll ‘The 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 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. Rudyard Kipling ‘The Way Through The Woods’ They shut the road through the woods Seventy years ago. W eather and rain have undone it again, And now you would never know There was once a road through the woods Before they planted the trees. It is underneath the coppice and heath And the thin anemones. Only the keeper sees That, where the ring-dove broods, And the badgers roll at ease, There was once a road through the woods. Yet, if you enter the woods Of a summer evening late, When the night-air cools on the trout-ringed pools Where the otter whistles his mate, (They fear not men in the woods, Because they see so few) You will hear the beat of a horse’s feet, And the swish of a skirt in the dew, Steadily cantering through The misty solitudes, As though they perfectly knew The old lost road through the woods… But there is no road through the woods.
