Alice's Adventures in the Land of Magic (usually abbreviated as Alice in Wonderland ) is a novel written in 1865 by the author British Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. It tells of a girl named Alice falling through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world inhabited by a strange, anthropomorphic creature. This story plays with logic, giving the story of enduring popularity with adults as well as with children. This is considered to be one of the best examples of genre of literary crap. Narrative courses and structures, characters and imagery are very influential both in popular culture and literature, especially in the fantasy genre.

Alice was published in 1865, three years after Charles Lutwidge Dodgson and Reverend Robinson Duckworth rowed by boat, on July 4, 1862 (this popular date of the "golden afternoons" may be confusion or even another Alice-tale, for the day it's cool, cloudy and rainy), up Isis with three daughters Henry Liddell (Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University and Dean Christ Church): Lorina Charlotte Liddell (13 years, born 1849) ("Prima" in the introductory textbook); Alice Pleasance Liddell (age 10, born 1852) ("Secunda" in introductory verse); Edith Mary Liddell (8 years, born 1853) ("Tertia" in the introductory verse).

The journey begins at Folly Bridge near Oxford and ends five miles away in Godstow village. During the trip, Reverend Dodgson told the girls the story that featured a bored little girl named Alice who went looking for adventure. The girls love it, and Alice Liddell asks Dodgson to write it for her. He began writing the story script the next day, although the earliest version was no longer available. The girls and Dodgson took another boat trip a month later when she explained the plot of Alice's story, and in November she began to do the scripts in earnest.

To add the finishing touches, he examines the natural history for the animals presented in the book, and then has books examined by other children - especially the children of George MacDonald. He added his own illustrations but approached John Tenniel to illustrate the book for publication, telling him that the story was favored by the children.

On November 26, 1864 he gave Alice Alice's Handwritten script in the Underground, with his own illustrations by Dodgson himself, dedicating it as "Christmas Gift for the Beloved Son in Memory of Summer Day". Some, including Martin Gardner, speculate there was an earlier version that Dodgson later destroyed when he wrote more complicated copies by hand.

But before Alice received his copy, Dodgson had prepared it for publication and expanded the original word 15,500 to 27,500 words, mainly adding episodes about Cheshire Cat and Mad Tea-Party.

Synopsis

Chapter One - Lower the Rabbit Hole : Alice, a seven-year-old girl, was bored and sleepy as she sat by the river with her sister. He then sees a white Rabbit dressed in white with a pocket watch running through. She follows him to the rabbit hole when suddenly he falls deep into the curiosity room with many locked doors of all sizes. He finds a small key to a door that is too small for him to traverse, but through it he sees an attractive garden. He then found the bottle on the table labeled "DRINK ME," the contents that caused him to shrink too small to reach the key he left on the table. He eats a cake with "EAT ME" written in a raisin when the chapter is closed.

Round Two - The Pool of Tears : Chapter Two opens with Alice growing with incredible size her head touching the ceiling. Alice was unhappy and, as she cried, her tears flooded the hallway. After shrinking again because of the fan she was taking, Alice swam through her own tears and met a Rat, who also swam. He tried to exchange small talk with him in French elementary school (think he might be a French rat) but his first opening "OÃÆ'¹ est ma chatte?" ("Where is my cat?") Rattles a mouse and he tries to run away.

Chapter Three - Caucus and Long Story Competition: The ocean of tears is overcrowded with animals and other birds swept away by rising water. Alice and the other animals are sitting in the bank and the question between them is how to be dry again. Mouse gave them a very dry talk about William the Conqueror. Dodo decided that the best thing to dry them was the Caucus Race, which consisted of everyone who ran in a circle without a clear winner. Alice ends up scaring all the animals, unknowingly, by talking about her cat (which is pretty fierce).

Chapter Four - Rabbits Send Little Charges : The White Rabbit appears again to search for Duchess gloves and fans. Thinking he was his maid, Mary Ann, he ordered Alice to come in and take her, but as soon as she went inside, she started to grow. The horrifying rabbit orders his gardener, Bill the Lizard, to climb up to the roof and down the chimney. Outside, Alice heard the sounds of animals that had gathered to glare at her giant arm. The crowd threw pebbles at him, which turned into a small cake. Alice ate it, and they reduced her size again.

Chapter Five - Suggestions from Caterpillar : Alice appears above the mushroom and sits on it is a blue snake smoking a hookah. Caterpillar questioned Alice and she acknowledged her current identity crisis, compounded by her inability to remember a poem. Before crawling away, the caterpillar tells Alice that one side of the mushroom will make it taller and the other side will make it shorter. He breaks two pieces of mushrooms. One side makes it shrink smaller than before, while the other causes its neck to grow high into the trees, where a pigeon thinks of him as a snake. With little effort, Alice brings herself back to its normal height. He stumbles on a small plantation and uses mushrooms to reach a more precise height.

Chapter Six - Pig and Pepper : A Fish-Footman has an invitation to the Duchess home, which he gives to Frog-Footman. Alice observes this transaction and, after a confusing conversation with a frog, lets herself into the house. The Duchess's Cook is throwing plates and making too much pepper soup, which causes Alice, Duchess, and the baby (but not the cook or the Cheshire Cat) to sneeze loudly. Alice was given a baby by the Duchess and to her surprise, the baby turned into a pig. The Cheshire cat appeared on the tree, leading it to March Hare's house. She disappears but her smile stays behind to float herself in the air prompting Alice to comment that she often sees a cat without a smile but never smiles without a cat.

Chapter Seven - Crazy Tea Party : Alice is a guest at a "crazy" tea party with a very tired March Hare, Hatter, and Dormouse who often fall asleep just to be rude. woke up moments later by March Hare and Hatter. The character gives Alice a lot of puzzles and stories, including the famous 'Why the crow like a desk?'. The Hatter reveals that they have tea all day because Time has punished him by staying up at 6 pm (tea time). Alice becomes humiliated and tired of being bombarded with riddles and she goes claiming that it is the stupidest tea party she ever did.

Chapter Eight - The Queen's Croquet Ground : Alice leaves the tea party and enters the park where she comes on three playing cards painting a white rose in a red rose tree because The Queen of Hearts hates white roses. A procession of more cards, kings and queens and even the White Rabbit entered the park. Alice then meets the King and Queen. The Queen, an unflattering figure, introduces her distinctive phrase "Dead with her head!" which he said a bit of dissatisfaction with the subject. Alice is invited (or some might say ordered) to play a croquet game with the Queen and all her subjects but the game quickly descends into chaos. The live flamingo is used as a hammer and hedgehog as a ball and Alice once again meets the Cheshire Cat. The Queen of Hearts then orders the Cats to be beheaded, just so that his executioners complain that this is impossible because his head is all that can be seen from him. Since the cat belongs to the Duchess, the Queen is required to release the Duchess from the prison to resolve the matter.

Chapter Nine - The Mock Turtle Story : The Duchess was taken to the cricket pitch at Alice's request. He contemplates finding moral in everything around him. The Queen of Hearts fired her for the threat of execution and she introduced Alice to Gryphon, who took her to the Mock Turtle. The Mock Turtle is very sad, though he has no sadness. She tries to tell her story of how she used to be a real turtle at school, which Gryphon interrupts so they can play the game.

Chapter Ten - Lobster Quadrille : Mock and Gryphon Turtles dance to Lobster Quadrille while Alice reads (somewhat wrong) "" This is a Lobster Sound "The Mock Turtle sings" Beautiful Soup "where Gryphon dragging Alice away for the upcoming trial.

Chapter Eleven - Who Steals Tarts? : Alice attends a trial where Knave of Hearts is accused of stealing a Queen's tart. The jury consists of various animals, including Bill the Lizard, White Rabbit is a court trumpet, and the judge is King of Hearts. During the trial, Alice finds that she keeps getting bigger. The rats reprimand Alice and tell her that she has no right to grow that fast and take all the air. Alice scoffs and calls the dormouse's allegations ridiculous as everyone grows and she can not help it. Meanwhile, witnesses at the trial included Hatter, who disappointed and frustrated the King through his indirect answers to questions, and the Duchess chef.

Chapter Twelve - Alice Evidence : Alice is then called as a witness. He accidentally knocked the jury box with the animals inside and the King ordered the animals to be placed back to their seats before the trial continued. The King and Queen ordered Alice to leave, quoting Rule 42 ("Everyone is more than a mile tall to leave the palace"), but Alice denies their judgment and refuses to leave. He argued with the King and Queen of Heart over a ridiculous process, eventually refusing to hold his tongue. The Queen shouted familiar, "Dead with her head!" but Alice was not scared, calling them only a pack of cards; just as they began to swarm around him. Alice's sister awakens her from the dream, brushing what turns into a leaf and does not shower the playing cards off Alice's face. Alice leaves her sister in the bank to imagine all the curious things for herself.


Character

The following is a list of main characters in Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland .

Character allusions

In Alice Annotated , Martin Gardner provides background information for the characters. The members of the boating group who first heard Carroll's story appeared in Chapter 3 ("A Caucus-Race and Long Long"). Alice Liddell himself was there, while Carroll's caricature as Dodo (because Dodgson stammered when he spoke, he sometimes pronounces his last name as Dodo-Dodgson). The Duck refers to Canon Duckworth, and Lory and Eaglet to Alice Liddell's sisters, Lorina and Edith.

Bill the Lizard may be a game on behalf of British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli. One of Tenniel's illustrations at Through Looking-Glass - the sequel to 1871 to Alice - describes a character called "Man in White Paper" (which Alice met) as a fellow passenger riding on the train with him) as a caricature of Disraeli, wearing a paper hat. Illustrations from Lions and Unicorns (also in Looking Glass) also have a striking resemblance to Tenniel's Illustrations Blow from Gladstone and Disraeli.

It has been suggested by several authors that The Hatter is a reference to Theophilus Carter, a furniture dealer known at Oxford. Tenniel apparently pulled the Hatter to resemble Carter, at Carroll's suggestion. However, it is unlikely Carter is a model for The Hatter, and there is no evidence that Carroll ever invited Tenniel to Oxford for any purpose. The Dormouse tells the story of three younger sisters named Elsie, Lacie, and Tillie. This is Liddell's sister: Elsie is L.C. (Lorina Charlotte), Tillie is Edith (the nickname of her family is Matilda), and Lacie is an anagram of Alice.

The Mock Turtle speaks of a Drawling-master, the "old conger eel", who comes once a week to teach "Drawling, Stretching, and Fainting in Coils". This is a reference to art critic John Ruskin, who comes once a week to Liddell's home to teach children drawing, sketching, and painting in oil. >. (The children, in fact, learn well: Alice Liddell, for one, produces a number of skilled watercolors.)

The Mock Turtle also sang "Turtle Soup". This is a parody of a song titled "Star of the Evening, Beautiful Star", performed as a trio by Lorina, Alice and Edith Liddell for Lewis Carroll at Liddell's house during the same summer where he first told the story of Alice Adventure in the Underground .


Poems and songs

Carroll wrote several poems and songs for Alice's Adventures in the Wonderland , including:

  • "All on a golden afternoon..." - a preparatory verse, an original poem by Carroll reminiscent of the oar expedition he first told of Alice's underground adventure
  • "How Doth the Little Crocodile" - Isaac Watts' parody poem, "Against Idleness and Mischief"
  • "The Mouse's Tale" - an example of concrete poetry
  • "You Are Old, Father William" - a parody of Robert Southey's "The Old Man's Comforts and How He Gaining Them"
  • The Duchess sleep lover, "Talking roughly to your little boy..." - a parody of David Bates' "Speak softly"
  • "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Bat" - a parody of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" Jane Taylor
  • "The Lobster Quadrille" - a parody of Mary Botham Howitt's "The Spider and the Fly"
  • "'Tis the Voice of the Lobster" - a parody of Isaac Watts' "The Sluggard"
  • "Beautiful Soup" - a parody of James M. Sayles, "Star of the Evening, Beautiful Star"
  • "The Queen of Hearts" - true children's rhyme
  • "They told me you were with him..." - Proof of the White Rabbit



Writing style and theme

Symbolism

Martin Gardner and other scholars have shown the book to be filled with many parodies from the popular culture of Victoria, which suggests it included in the spirit with Gilbert & Sullivan Topsyturveydom .

Much of the book's adventure may be based on and influenced by people, situations and buildings in Oxford and in Christ Church, for example , "Rabbit Hole," which represents the actual ladder behind the main hall of Christ Church. A carved griffon and a rabbit, as seen at Ripon Cathedral, where Carroll's father was a canon, may have inspired the story.

Since Carroll was a mathematician at Christ Church, it has been suggested that there are many mathematical references and concepts in both of these and Through Looking-Glass; examples include:

  • In chapter 1, "Down the Rabbit-Hole", in the middle of shrinking, Alice wax philosophically about what her final size will end up as, maybe " go out altogether, like a candle "; this reflection reflects the concept of limits.
  • In chapter 2, "The Pool of Tears," Alice tries to duplicate but produces some strange results: " Let me see: four times five is twelve, and four times six is ​​thirteen, and four times seven is - oh dear! I will never get to twenty at that level! "This explores the representation of numbers using different bases and positional number systems: 4 ÃÆ'â €" 5 = 12 in basis of 18 notations, 4 ÃÆ'â € " 6 = 13 in base notation 21, and 4 ÃÆ'â € "7 can be 14 in 24 basis notation. Continuing this sequence, up three bases each time, the result will continue to be less than 20 in the corresponding base notation. (After 4 ÃÆ'â € "12 = 19 in Basis 39, the product will be 4 ÃÆ'â €" 13 = 1A in Base 42, then 1B, 1C, 1D, and so on.)
  • In chapter 7, "A Mad Tea-Party", March Hare, Hatter, and Dormouse give some examples where the semantic value of the sentence A is not the same value of the opposite of A (for example, " Why, you might also say that 'I see what I eat' is the same as 'I eat what I see'! "); in logic and mathematics, it discusses the inverse relationship.
  • Also in chapter 7, Alice ponders what it means when the turn of seats around the round table puts them back at the beginning. This is an addition observation on the integer ring of modulo N.
  • The Cheshire cat fades until it completely disappears, just a big grin, hanging in the air, making Alice awe and realizing that she has seen a cat without a smile, but never smiled without a cat. The profound abstraction of concepts, such as non-Euclidean geometry, abstract algebra, and early mathematical logic, took over mathematics at the time Dodgson was writing. Dodgson's delineation of the relationship between a cat and a smile can be taken to represent the mathematical concept and the number itself. For example, instead of considering two or three apples, one can easily consider the concept of 'apple', on which the two and three concepts may appear dependent. A much more sophisticated leap is to consider the concept of 'two' and 'three' by itself, just like a smile that originally relies on a cat, conceptually separated from its physical object.

The literary student Melanie Bayley asserted in the New Scientist magazine that Dodgson wrote Alice in Wonderland in his final form as a hint of the new modern mathematics that emerged in the mid-19th century.

It has been suggested by several people, including Martin Gardner and Selwyn Goodacre, that Dodgson has an interest in French, choosing to make reference and play the words in the story. It is likely that this is a reference to French lessons - a common feature of Victorian middle-class girl education. For example, in the second chapter, Alice states that the mouse is probably French. Therefore he chose to speak the first sentence of his French textbooks: " Oa est ma chatte? " ("Where is my cat?"). In the French translation of Henri BuÃÆ'Â ©, Alice argues that the mouse was probably Italian and spoke Italian with it.

Pat's "Digging for apples" can be a cross-language wording, such as pomme de terre (literally "apple of the earth") means potato and pomme meaning apple, -the little English girl learning French will be easy to guess.

In the second chapter, Alice initially discusses the mouse as "O Mouse", based on her memory of the noun declensions "in her Latin Grammar brother, 'A mouse - from mouse - to mouse - mouse - O mouse!' "These words correspond to the first five of the six Latin cases, in the traditional order established by medieval grammars: musical (nominative), sissy (genitive) , muri (Dative), murem (accusative), (O) mus (vocative). The sixth case, mure (ablative) is not in Alice's reading.

In the eighth chapter, three cards paint a rose on a red rose tree, because they accidentally planted a white rose tree that the Queen of Hates hated. The red rose symbolizes the House of Lancaster in England, while the white roses are a symbol for their rival house, York. This scene is an allusion to Wars of the Roses.

While this book remains in print and continues to inspire new adaptations, the reference cultural material has become a very special knowledge. Dr Leon Coward affirmed the book 'suffering' from "readings that reflect today's interest with postmodernism and psychology, rather than exploring historically informed interpretations," and speculated that this has been partially driven by audiences confronting narratives through the 'hands of the source' explains' our impression of the original text is based on the number of reinterpretations. We do not need to realize that we are missing something in understanding the original product, because we usually never deal with original products. "

Eat and devour

Carina Garland notes how the world is "expressed through the representation of food and appetite," which Alice calls for consumption (both food and words), 'Curious Appetite'. Often, the idea of ​​eating coincides to make the image horrible. After the puzzle "Why is a crow like a desk?", The Hatter claims that Alice might also say, "I see what I eat... I eat what I see" and the puzzle solution, filed by Boe Birns , it could be "A crow eating a worm, a worn-out writing station"; this idea of ​​food summarizes the idea of ​​a life that feeds on life, because it is eaten and then becomes the eater - a horrible picture of death.

Nina Auerbach discusses how this novel revolves around eating and drinking that "motivates many of her [Alice] behaviors," because her story is basically about things "entering and leaving her mouth." Animals in the Wonderland are of special interest, for Alice's relationship with them shifting steadily because, as reported by Lovell-Smith, Alice's size change is constantly repositioning itself in the food chain, serving as a way to make him very conscious of the 'eat or eat' attitude that permeates Wonderland.


Illustration

The manuscript was illustrated by Dodgson himself who added 37 illustrations - printed in a facsimile edition in 1887. John Tenniel gave 42 woodcutting illustrations for published versions of the book. The first printed line was destroyed (or sold to America) at Carroll's request because he was not satisfied with the quality. The book was reprinted and published in 1866.

John Tenniel's illustration of Alice does not depict the real Alice Liddell, who has black hair and short edges.

Alice has challenged other illustrators, including those in 1907 by Charles Pears and a full line of color plates and line drawings by Harry Rountree published in an edition of the Inter-War (Glasgow) edition. Other important illustrators include: Arthur Rackham (1907), Willy Pogany (1929), Mervyn Peake (1946), Ralph Steadman (1967), Salvador DalÃÆ' (1969), Graham Overden (1969), Max Ernst (1970), Peter Blake 1970), Tove Jansson (1977), Anthony Browne (1988), Helen Oxenbury (1999) and Lisbeth Zwerger (1999).


Accept by reviewers

The book Alice in Wonderland failed to be mentioned in an 1888 poll of the most popular children's stories. Generally got bad reviews with reviewers giving more credit to Tenniel illustrations than Carroll's story. On the release of Looking Through Glass, Alice's story first gained popularity and by the end of the 19th century Sir Walter Besant wrote that Alice in Wonderland is a very rare book that will be belongs to all generations that will come until language becomes obsolete ".


Publishing history

In 1865, the story of Dodgson was published as Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland by Lewis Carroll with an illustration by John Tenniel. The first print of 2,000 was held back because Tenniel objected to the print quality. The new edition, released in December of the same year, but carrying the date of 1866, was quickly printed. The original edition text block was removed from the bindery and sold with Dodgson's permission to the New York D. Appleton & amp; Company. The binding to Appleton Alice is almost identical to 1866 Macmillan Alice , except for the name of the publisher at the leg of the spine. The title page of Appleton Alice is an insertion that canceled the original Macmillan title page 1865, and contained tracks of New York publishers and dated 1866.

All prints are sold out quickly. Alice is a publishing sensation, loved by children and adults alike. Among the first avid readers were Queen Victoria and young Oscar Wilde. The book has never been printed. Alice Adventure in the Wonderland has been translated into at least 97 languages, or 174 languages. There are now more than a hundred book editions, as well as countless adaptations in other media, especially theater and film.

The book is often referred to as the abbreviated title of Alice in Wonderland, which has been popularized by the various stages, films and television adaptations of stories produced over the years. Some of the prints from this title contain Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland and the sequel Through Glass Looks, and What Alice Found Is There .

Parody

This book has inspired some parodies including:

Live performance

The first major production of Alice's books during Carroll's lifetime was Alice in Wonderland, a musical by H. Saville Clark (book) and Walter Slaughter (music), which was screened in 1886 at Prince. Theater Wales in London.

Because the book and its sequel are Carroll's most widely known works, they also inspire many live performances, including drama, opera, ballet, and traditional British pantomime. These works range from adaptations that are quite loyal to those who use stories as the basis for new works. The last example is the Eighth Square , a murder mystery made in Wonderland, written by Matthew Fleming and music and lyrics by Ben J. Macpherson. This gothic rock music was aired in 2006 at the New Theater Royal in Portsmouth, England. The TA Fantastika, the popular black light theater in Prague performs the "Aspect of Alice"; written and directed by Petr KratochvÃÆ'l. This adaptation is not faithful to the book, but rather explores Alice's journey into adulthood while combining satire into the history of the Czech Republic.

Over the years, many famous people in performing arts have been involved in the production of Alice . Actress Eva Le Gallienne famously adapted Alice's second book to the stage in 1932; this production was revived in New York in 1947 and 1982. One of America's most famous productions was the 1980 Joseph Papp performance of Alice in Concert at the Public Theater in New York City. Elizabeth Swados wrote books, lyrics, and music. Based on both Alice Adventure in the Wonderland and Under Glass View, Papp and Swados previously produced the version at the New York Shakespeare Festival. Meryl Streep plays Alice, White Queen, and Humpty Dumpty. The players also included Debbie Allen, Michael Jeter, and Mark Linn-Baker. Performing on a nude stage with actors in modern attire, this drama is a loose adaptation, with a style of song starting from the world. Alice's community theater production is Olivia de Havilland's first film on stage.

Similarly, the 1992 opera production Alice uses both Alice books as its inspiration. It also uses scenes with Charles Dodgson, young Alice Liddell, and adult Alice Liddell, to frame the story. Paul Schmidt wrote the drama, with Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan writing music. Although the original production in Hamburg, Germany, received only a small audience, Tom Waits released the songs as Alice album in 2002.

The musical adaptation was written by Michael Sirotta and Heather M. Dominick in 1997, titled Alice in Wonderland, a Musical Adventure .

A ballet by Christopher Wheeldon and Nicholas Wright was assigned to The Royal Ballet entitled "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" premiered in February 2011 at the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden, London. The ballet is based on the novel Wheeldon who grew up as a child and is generally true to the original story, although some critics claim that it may be too loyal. The overall ballet is generally still lighthearted because of the running time of one hour and forty minutes. Ballet back to the Royal Opera House in 2012.
