Book Alice s Adventures in Wonderland Decoded

Download or read book Alice s Adventures in Wonderland Decoded written by David Day and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This gorgeous 150th anniversary edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is also a revelatory work of scholarship. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland--published 150 years ago in 1865--is a book many of us love and feel we know well. But it turns out we have only scratched the surface. Scholar David Day has spent many years down the rabbit hole of this children's classic and has emerged with a revelatory new view of its contents. What we have here, he brilliantly and persuasively argues, is a complete classical education in coded form--Carroll's gift to his "wonder child" Alice Liddell. In two continuous commentaries, woven around the complete text of the novel for ease of cross-reference on every page, David Day reveals the many layers of teaching, concealed by manipulation of language, that are carried so lightly in the beguiling form of a fairy tale. These layers relate directly to Carroll's interest in philosophy, history, mathematics, classics, poetry, spiritualism and even to his love of music--both sacred and profane. His novel is a memory palace, given to Alice as the great gift of an education. It was delivered in coded form because in that age, it was a gift no girl would be permitted to receive in any other way. Day also shows how a large number of the characters in the book are based on real Victorians. Wonderland, he shows, is a veritable "Who's Who" of Oxford at the height of its power and influence in the Victorian Age. There is so much to be found behind the imaginary characters and creatures that inhabit the pages of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. David Day's warm, witty and brilliantly insightful guide--beautifully designed and stunningly illustrated throughout in full colour--will make you marvel at the book as never before.

Book Alice s Second Trip to Wonderland

Download or read book Alice s Second Trip to Wonderland written by Charles Lewis Dettering and published by World Audience Incorporated. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alice's Second Trip to Wonderland by Charles Lewis Dettering ISBN: 978-1-934209-46-6 Author Charles Lewis Dettering dedicates his book, Alice's Second Trip to Wonderland, to "the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (Lewis Carroll) and to everyone in the world who has wished that his tales had not ceased and the adventures of Alice would continue." In this work of fantasy that has striking parallels to the real world, Alice is now 19 years old, a student at Wedgepeth College. Still a believer in what most folks consider impossible, she takes a trip to a far different Wonderland than before: this time, it appears, via a black hole. Arriving in a country that is primarily a racecourse, she experiences new adventures and encounters a variety of characters even more fascinating than she did in her childhood: an ebunnyonics-talking Brown Rabbit who is the "greatest journalist in the world," Humpty Dumpty the 600th, the Flowers of the World, a cockney dodo bird, a foul-mouthed parrot, and a Joker sentenced to death for his refusal to stop punning. The highlight of the story is, arguably, the most hilarious court trial in the history of literature. This book is illustrated with a few of Sir John Tenniel's drawings for the original Alice in Wonderland and new scenes and characters - plus a rare photo of the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson/aka Lewis Carroll holding hands on a London street with his frequent companion, little Alice Liddell, whom he made famous with his stories about her trips down a rabbit hole and through a looking glass. If you liked Lewis Carroll's childhood Alice stories, you will love this mature Alice tale still more. It is full of the kind of apparent "nonsense" in Carroll's work that had a certain amount of symbolism to it, but always was too esoteric and is now mostly irrelevant. The messages in this story of an Alice trip into a new wonderland retain the subtlety of a Carroll tale, but the satire in it produces more relevance to the present day, and is a whole lot funnier, than what you find in his Victorian era fantasies. I love the cover, the racecourse analogy, and Humpty Dumpty the 600th. The play on ebonics is very clever --Peggy Nash, Professor of Psychology, Broward College Though this new Alice tale will be considered as fantasy, the kind of world and the characters in it come across as all too real, but a whole lot funnier. I made the mistake of beginning to read it just before bedtime. Once I started I could not stop reading and laughing. It cost me a lot of sleep. --Michael C. Pantazis, President, Tembeles Real Estate As a journalist I covered a lot of funny court trials, but none equal to the humor in the trial of Alice. Anyone but a judge or lawyer (guess why) will laugh her or his head off, even while the Queen demands that the head of Alice be taken off in a different manner, for the dissection of this strange creature identifying herself as a member of the "Hu" species or, as the Dodo bird says it, a "hooman bean." The only one in the courtroom who seems to be able to get it right is the Brown Rabbit, covering the trial as "the greatest journalist in the world." Though he thinks Alice has her identification backwards in calling herself a "hu-man," since she is obviously a female, the Brown Rabbit accepts the term and, since it has never been defined before, gives it the definition in his working pocket dictionary as "a freak of nature." --Burton H. Wolfe, author of Pileup on Death Row and No Lawyer Necessary
