Description

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland began as a tale told by Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson to three young girls (Lorina, Alice, and Edith Liddell) as the group took a rowing expedition up the Thames River.

Enthralled by the story, Alice Liddell asked Dodgson to write it down for her, and he eventually did.

In 1865, three years after their initial boat trip, Dodgson published Alice's Adventures in Wonderland under the pen name Lewis Carroll.

Like its sequel, Through the Looking Glass, Alice is a story filled with imagery, symbolism, and unforgettable characters. As the critics in this volume attest, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland has sparked the imagination of countless children and adults alike, and has served as an influence to storytellers the world over.

The critical essays in this volume reflect a variety of schools of criticism accompanied by notes on the contributing critics.

Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is an essential resource for those interested in the interpretations of top scholars in the literary field.
