There was a sound of many footsteps, and Alice looked round, eager to see the Queen. Lewis Carroll wrote Alice as a children's fantasy, but I believe he and his friends must have had a quiet smile at no one guessing the source of his inspiration. These are the Liddell sisters: Elsie is L. I'm really upset. She then discovers a bottle on a table labelled "DRINK ME," the contents of which cause her to shrink too small to reach the key which she had left on the table. This was quite a new idea to Alice, and she thought it over a little before she made her next remark. Mary Ann! The story was originally told by Carroll to Lorina, Alice, and Edith Liddell the daughters of Henry George Liddell , dean of Christ Church, Oxford , where the author had studied and held a fellowship on a picnic in July The Atlantic. Alice had never been in a court of justice before, but she had read about them in books, and she was quite pleased to find that she knew the name of nearly everything there. After a while she remembered that she still held the pieces of mushroom in her hands, and she set to work very carefully, nibbling first at one and then at the other, and growing sometimes taller and sometimes shorter, until she had succeeded in bringing herself down to her usual height. Oh, how I wish I could shut up like a telescope! So they sat down, and nobody spoke for some minutes. Alices Adventures in Wonderland Writer And children, chuckling and listening to the novel, several times are wondering: "What's going on? Alice was very glad to find her in such a pleasant temper, and thought to herself that perhaps it was only the pepper that had made her so savage when they met in the kitchen. The book is commonly referred to by the abbreviated title Alice in Wonderland , which has been popularised by the numerous stage, film and television adaptations of the story produced over the years. There is a lovely innocence to Alice and a startling and surprising freshness to all the creatures and characters she meets. The judge, by the way, was the King; and as he wore his crown over the wig, look at the frontispiece if you want to see how he did it, he did not look at all comfortable, and it was certainly not becoming. However, these questions do add to the depth of the reading experience. The Hatter shook his head mournfully. Even though Tweedle Dee And Tweedle Dumm are actually from "Through the Looking Glass", this scene fits well into this tale, and is one of the most effective sequences of them all.

And so she went on, taking first one side and then the other, and making quite a conversation of it altogether; but after a few minutes she heard a voice outside, and stopped to listen. She did it so quickly that the poor little juror it was Bill, the Lizard could not make out at all what had become of it; so, after hunting all about for it, he was obliged to write with one finger for the rest of the day; and this was of very little use, as it left no mark on the slate.

A dodo decides that the best thing to dry them off would be a Caucus-Race, which consists of everyone running in a circle with no clear winner. Alice had been to the seaside once in her life, and had come to the general conclusion, that wherever you go to on the English coast you find a number of bathing machines in the sea, some children digging in the sand with wooden spades, then a row of lodging houses, and behind them a railway station. The Cat only grinned when it saw Alice. So she set the little creature down, and felt quite relieved to see it trot away quietly into the wood. He poured a little hot tea on the Dormouse's nose, making it wake with a start. Alice Liddell herself is there, while Carroll is caricatured as the Dodo because Dodgson stuttered when he spoke, he sometimes pronounced his last name as Dodo-Dodgson. The cook threw a frying-pan after her as she went out, but it just missed her. If this book wasn't so short, I think it would have became a DNF for me.

Alices Adventures in Wonderland Reviews This piece of rudeness was more than Alice could bear: she got up in great disgust, and walked off; the Dormouse fell asleep instantly, and neither of the others took the least notice of her going, though she looked back once or twice, half hoping that they would call after her: the last time she saw them, they were trying to put the Dormouse into the teapot.

  • Alice in Wonderland: Chapter Seven: a Mad Tea Party
    ALICE IN WONDERLAND: CHAPTER SEVEN: A MAD TEA PARTY CHAPTER VII A Mad Tea-Party There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it: a Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head. `Very uncomfortable for the Dormouse,' thought Alice; `only, as it's asleep, I suppose it doesn't mind.' The table was a large one, but the three were all crowded together at one corner of it: `No room! No room!' they cried out when they saw Alice coming. `There's plenty of room!' said Alice indignantly, and she sat down in a large arm-chair at one end of the table. Mad Tea Party `Have some wine,' the March Hare said in an encouraging tone. Alice looked all round the table, but there was nothing on it but tea. `I don't see any wine,' she remarked. `There isn't any,' said the March Hare. `Then it wasn't very civil of you to offer it,' said Alice angrily. `It wasn't very civil of you to sit down without being invited,' said the March Hare. `I didn't know it was your table,' said Alice; `it's laid for a great many more than three.' 1 ALICE IN WONDERLAND: CHAPTER SEVEN: A MAD TEA PARTY `Your hair wants cutting,' said the Hatter.

In such an hour, To put the subject by, Beneath such dreamy weather, “The rest next time –” “It is next time!” To beg a tale of breath too weak The happy voices cry. To stir the tiniest feather! Thus grew the tale of Wonderland: Yet what can one poor voice avail Thus slowly, one by one, Against three tongues together?

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?

Lewis Carroll was the nom de plume of Charles L. Dodgson. Born on January 27, 1832 in Daresbury, Cheshire, England, Charles Dodgson wrote and created games as a child. At age 20 he received a studentship at Christ Church and was appointed a lecturer in mathematics. Dodgson was shy but enjoyed creating stories for children. Within the academic discipline of mathematics, Dodgson worked primarily in the fields of geometry, linear and matrix algebra, mathematical logic, and recreational mathematics, producing nearly a dozen books under his real name. Dodgson also developed new ideas in linear algebra (e.g., the first printed proof of the Kronecker-Capelli theorem,) probability, and the study of elections (e.g., Dodgson's method); some of this work was not published until well after his death.

  • Lewis Carroll: Author, Mathematician, and Christian
    Lewis Carroll: Author, Mathematician, and Christian David L. Neuhouser Mathematics Department Taylor University Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832-1898), better known as Lewis Carroll, is best known as the creative and imaginative author of the Alice stories, but he was also a mathematician at Christ Church College, Oxford University and a devout Christian. His mathematics, especially mathematical logic, contributed much to the charming “nonsense” in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. However, his Christian thought is not evident in those books. In fact, they contain many parodies of morality poems for children. As a result of reading just these books, one might conclude that he was not even interested in morality. But to those who knew him personally, he seemed to be a rather pious, stodgy person. Also, he wrote essays and letters in defense of morality and Christianity as well as books and articles on mathematics. His writings on morality showed little of his literary imagination and his writings on mathematics give no indication of his Christianity. Only in Sylvie and Bruno and Sylvie and Bruno Concluded did Dodgson attempt to bring his literary creativity, mathematics, and Christianity all together in one artistic creation. This paper will attempt to answer the following questions. What motivated him to make this attempt and how successful was it? The Alice stories were the first really successful children’s stories which did not have obvious moral teachings. They were just for fun. However he wrote articles and letters against “indecent literature,” joking about sacred things, and immorality in plays. Some projects that he planned but never completed were: selections from the Bible to be memorized, selections from the Bible with pictures for children, and selections from Shakespeare with inappropriate content for young girls deleted.

    Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland Chapter 12 ~ Page 1 © Gay Miller ~ Created by Gay Miller CHAPTER XII. Alice's Evidence 'Here!' cried Alice, quite forgetting in the flurry of the moment how large she had grown in the last few minutes, and she jumped up in such a hurry that she tipped over the jury-box with the edge of her skirt, upsetting all the jurymen on to the heads of the crowd below, and there they lay sprawling about, reminding her very much of a globe of goldfish she had accidentally upset the week before. 'Oh, I beg your pardon!' she exclaimed in a tone of great dismay, and began picking them up again as quickly as she could, for the accident of the goldfish kept running in her head, and she had a vague sort of idea that they must be collected at once and put back into the jury-box, or they would die. 'The trial cannot proceed,' said the King in a very grave voice, 'until all the jurymen are back in their proper places—all,' he repeated with great emphasis, looking hard at Alice as he said do. Alice looked at the jury-box, and saw that, in her haste, she had put the Lizard in head downwards, and the poor little thing was waving its tail about in a melancholy way, being quite unable to move. She soon got it out again, and put it right; 'not that it signifies much,' she said to herself; 'I should think it would be quite as much use in the trial one way up as the other.' As soon as the jury had a little recovered from the shock of being upset, and their slates and pencils had been found and handed back to them, they set to work very diligently to write out a history of the accident, all except the Lizard, who seemed too much overcome to do anything but sit with its mouth open, gazing up into the roof of the court.

  • Annihilating Nihilistic Nonsense Tim Burton Guts Lewis Carroll’S Jabberwocky
    Annihilating Nihilistic Nonsense Tim Burton Guts Lewis Carroll’s Jabberwocky Alice in Wonderland seems to beg for a morbid interpretation. Whether it's Marilyn Manson's "Eat Me, Drink Me," the video game "American McGee's Alice," or Svankmajer's "Alice" and "Jabberwocky," artists love bringing out the darker elements of Alice’s adventures as she wanders among creepy creatures. The 2010 Tim Burton film is the latest twisted adaptation, featuring an older Alice that slays the Jabberwocky. However, unlike the other adaptations, Burton’s adaptation draws most of its grim outlook by gutting Alice in Wonderland of its fundamental core - its nonsense. Alice in Wonderland uses nonsense to liberate, offering frightening amounts of freedom through its playful use of nonsense. However, Burton turns this whimsy into menacing machinations - he pretends to use nonsense for its original liberating purpose but actually uses it for adult plots and preset paths. Burton takes the destructive power of Alice’s insistence for order and amplifies it dramatically, completely removing its original subversive release from societal constraints. Under the façade of paying tribute to Carroll’s whimsical nonsense verse, Burton directly removes nonsense’s anarchic freedom and replaces it with a destructive commitment to sense. This brutal change to both plot and structure turns Alice into a mindless juggernaut, slaying not only the Jabberwock, but also the realm of nonsense, non-linear narrative and real world empires. At first, nonsense in Lewis Carroll’s books seems to just a light-hearted play with language. Even before we come into Wonderland, the idea of nonsense as just a simple child’s diversion is given by the epigraph.

  • Alice in Wonderland
    Alice in Wonderland Grade Level: Third Grade Presented by: Mary Beth Henze, Platte River Academy, Highlands Ranch, CO Paula Lowthian, Littleton Academy, Littleton, CO Length of Unit: 13 lessons I. ABSTRACT This literature unit was designed to assist students at various reading levels to both understand and enjoy Alice in Wonderland. It was our feeling that this novel is very challenging for the average 3rd grade reader. The story line can be difficult to follow and the author, Lewis Carroll, uses English terms and various “sayings and phrases” in his writing. First, we developed an Interest Center around the Alice theme, complete with pictures from the story and activities for the students to enjoy as a way to activate their prior knowledge and a way to incorporate fun thematic opportunities for the students. Second, we wrote a novel study complete with comprehension questions for each chapter. The questions ask the students for both explicit and implicit information, require the students to answer in complete sentences, touch on vocabulary and grammar, and invite them to make connections between themselves, other texts, or the outside world as they read Alice in Wonderland. The novel was read together as a whole class, and then students were sent off to individually work on their novel study questions. Together we reviewed the questions and answers as we enjoyed our progression through the novel. Finally, we took our lead from the students as they often ask us if they “can act out” a part of a story that they are reading by writing a script for the trial scene from Alice.

  • 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

  • The Female Rebel in Pan's Labyrinth, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass
    GOTHIC AGENTS OF REVOLT: THE FEMALE REBEL IN PAN'S LABYRINTH, ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND AND THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS Michail-Chrysovalantis Markodimitrakis A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2016 Committee: Piya-Pal Lapinski, Advisor Kimberly Coates © 2016 Michail-Chrysovalantis Markodimitrakis All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Piya Pal-Lapinski, Advisor The Gothic has become a mode of transforming reality according to the writers’ and the audiences’ imagination through the reproduction of hellish landscapes and nightmarish characters and occurrences. It has also been used though to address concerns and criticize authoritarian and power relations between citizens and the State. Lewis Carroll’sAlice’s Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking Glass are stories written during the second part of the 19th century and use distinct Gothic elements to comment on the political situation in England as well as the power of language from a child’s perspective. Guillermo Del Toro’s Pan’s Labyrinth on the other hand uses Gothic horror and escapism to demonstrate the monstrosities of fascism and underline the importance of revolt and resistance against State oppression. This thesis will be primarily concerned with Alice and Ophelia as Gothic protagonists that become agents of revolt against their respective states of oppression through the lens of Giorgio Agamben and Hannah Arendt. I will examine how language and escapism are used as tools by the literary creators to depict resistance against the Law and societal pressure; I also aim to demonstratehow the young protagonists themselves refuse to comply with the authoritarian methods used against them byadult the representatives of Power.
