Alice's Adventures Under Ground + Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - Illustrated Edition

Lewis Carroll

Beschreibung

In "Alice's Adventures Under Ground" and its expanded version, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," Lewis Carroll crafts a whimsical yet profound exploration of the imagination, society, and the fluidity of identity. This narrative, peppered with nonsensical dialogues and quirky characters, reflects the Victorian era's fascination with childhood innocence juxtaposed with the complexities of adult realities. Carroll's playful use of language, riddles, and dreamlike sequences creates a rich tapestry that invites readers of all ages to delve into the realms of absurdity and logic, ultimately prompting reflection on the nature of reality and consciousness. Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, known by his pen name Lewis Carroll, was a mathematician, logician, and photographer. His deep engagement with mathematics and penchant for wordplay significantly informed his literary style. Inspired by a boating trip with the Liddell sisters, the original tale emerged as a whimsical narrative tailored for young Alice Liddell, encapsulating Carroll's longing for the simplicity and wonder of childhood while subtly critiquing the conventions of Victorian society. I wholeheartedly recommend this enchanting work to anyone seeking to rediscover the innocence of youth through the eyes of a curious child. Carroll's ability to blend fantasy with intellectual depth makes this a timeless classic that continues to resonate, challenging readers to embrace their imaginations while questioning social norms.

Before he wrote the Oz books, L. Frank Baum wrote this book which was the best selling book of 1897. Taking 16 beloved nursery rhymes, he explains their meaning and fascinating history. What is the true story of Little Boy Blue? Why was Mary contrary?
As he says in the introduction, "Many of these nursery rhymes are complete tales in themselves, telling their story tersely but completely; there are others which are but bare suggestions, leaving the imagination to weave in the details of the story. Perhaps therein may lie part of their charm, but however that may be I have thought the children might like the stories told at greater length, that they may dwell the longer upon their favorite heroes and heroines. For that reason I have written this book." L. Frank BaumBefore he wrote the Oz books, L. Frank Baum wrote this book which was the best selling book of 1897.
