		The Annotated Hunting of the Snark by Lewis Carroll
		Gardner's annotations run the gamut from the factual and historical to the speculative and are, in their own way, quite as fascinating as the text they refer to.
		The Annotated Alice provides a treasure chest of information on the two Alice books and on the man, Lewis Carroll who was responsible for their creation.

		Gardner's annotations run the gamut from the factual and historical to the speculative and are, in their own way, quite as fascinating as the text they refer to.
		In the case of Alice, we are dealing with a very curious, complicated form of nonsense, which explores the possibilities of the uses and abuse of language and is actually based on a profound knowledge of the rules of logic.
		This annotation version helps by telling us about some aspects of the era and setting that Alice and Charles Lutwidge Dodgson lived in, about Christ Church, and Duckworth etc. but it misses the details about the main points of logic that are being made by Carroll.

		Alice in Wonderland is not technically a fairy tale, so don't think about it too much as one.
		While the connection between Alice and folklore is fuzzier, the theme of a hero or heroine entering an alternate reality and having tasks to accomplish in order to complete a quest is based in myth.

		My introduction to Alice came with The Annotated Alice, a lofty tome that my parents purchased at a garage sale when I was smaller than the book itself.
		Gardiner also defends his reasons for creating The Annotated Alice, pointing out that a story written in 19th century England is rife with mentions of concepts that 20th (and 21st) century American children will gloss over and not understand as more than random nonsense if no explanation is given.
		The Annotated Alice, however, is not really aimed at children, but rather serious lovers of literature.

		Dodgson's favorite among the sisters was named Alice, and he used her name for the protagonist of a fantastic story he improvised along the way.
		Gardner published his original annotated edition, which inspired the modern trend of such books, in 1959, and there are more than a half-million copies in print worldwide.
		Her Alice is a modern blond girl in a blue dress, but the rest of the characters seem appropriately fantastic.

	The Jabberwocky \| Lenny's Alice in Wonderland site
		Alice's reaction to Lewis Carroll's poem "Jabberwocky" is relatively typical.
		The generally accepted meaning during the 1800s was in reference "to blowing unsteadily in short puffs, hence it came to be a slang term for being variable and evasive" (Gardner The Annotated Alice 196).
		The third, and final, technique that Carroll used to keep his poems from becoming meaningless is the fact that he used the sound of his words rather than the meaning of the words to express the meaning of the poem.

	Mali in Wonderland
		Much as Alice “thought that she was now the right size for going through the little door into that lovely garden,”[2] I thought that in having no particular direction I was in the right frame of mind to find my calling.
		It is this question that led Alice to admit that she “should like to be a little larger… three inches is such a wretched height to be.”[10] Much as Alice, this question prompts me think about how I truly feel about my current situation.
		I felt much like Alice when she was attempting to find a height somewhere in between three inches and thirty feet high.

		Alice has another run-in with skewed social etiquette when she encounters the Mock Turtle and the Gryphon in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
		Merely by allowing Alice to question the authority of the King and point out the stupidity of his rules he is pointing out the stupidity of contemporary behavioral standards.

	Books by Alice Miller, Ph.D. - The Natural Child Project
		Alice Miller demonstrates that this centuries-old tradition also finds expression in Freud's notions of the "Oedipus complex" and "infantile sexuality" - his drive theory - which put the blame on the child.
		She draws from her discoveries the conclusion that human beings are not "innately" destructive, that they are made that way by ignorance, abuse, and neglect, particularly if no sympathetic witness comes to their aid.
		Alice Miller shows us people who have suffered great loneliness in childhood and who now, in adulthood, despite their yearnings for contact and communication, are still trapped in inner isolation.

	Alice in Wonderland and Other Lewis Carroll
		As the story goes, "Alice's Adventures Underground" virtually flowed out of the mouth of Charles Dodgson (forever afterwards known to the world as Lewis Carroll) to entertain the three Liddell sisters as he and Canon Duckworth paddled up the river from Oxford to Godstow on the afternoon of July 4th, 1862.
		The original title "Alice's Hour in Elfland" was discarded, and three years later "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" was published by Macmillan and Company.
		Despite its temporary withdrawal from circulation due to the poor reproduction of its illustrations, it was soon printed again, and again, and again, to the delight of Victorians and everyone who came after, right up to the present day.

		Tenniel's pictures of Alice are not pictures of Alice Liddell, who had dark hair cut short with straight bangs across her forehead.
		Alice's one major romance, before she married Reginald Hargreaves, was with England's Prince Leopold.
		It is hard to believe that when Alice called her third son Caryl she did not have her old mathematician friend in mind, but according to Anne Clark, in her marvelous book The Real Alice (Stein & Day, 1982), Alice always insisted that the name came from a novel.

	Alice's Adventures in Wonderland Summary & Essays - Lewis Carroll
		Lewis Carroll's book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was not originally written for the general public but for a single child: Alice Pleasance Liddell, second daughter of the Dean of Christ Church College, Oxford.
		According to an account written many years later by Alice Liddell, she pestered Carroll—the pseudonym for mathematician and dean Charles Lutwidge Dodgson—to write the story down for her.
		The two Alice books remain in print today, over a century after their publication.

	New Statesman - Dirty old man
		So, Gardner's annotations, with their obsessive dwelling upon the minutiae of factoids about the texts, rather than their symbolism, are themselves a gloss upon a displacement activity.
		What, in my view, makes the Alice books so enduringly central to the English literary canon is precisely their quality of heightened repression: the struggle by a tormented paedophile to keep the manifest object of his desire straitjacketed in a fallacious - yet socially condoned - dreamlike realm of sexual ignorance.
		It is this that made everything in the Alice books - from the distortions in scale, to the surreal elisions, to the banjaxed language - such a rich source of inference for those avatars of modernism, Joyce, Eliot and Nabokov.

		"The time is past when a child under fifteen, even in England, can read Alice with the same delight as gained from, say, The Wind in the Willows or The Wizard of Oz," he writes in a preface to The Annotated Alice: The Definitive Edition (Norton, $29.95, 340 pp).

		The man dressed in white paper, who Alice meets when she travels by train through the 3rd square, is a political joke; Tenniel's illustration shows a cartoon of Benjamin Disraeli, who was Prime Minister when Carroll lived.
		The drawing of Alice is a composition of ‘My First Sermon’ and ‘My Second Sermon’, two paintings by the Victorian artist John Everett Millais.
		In case you're wondering whose name it is that you see on most of the illustrations (not Tenniel's monogram): it is the last name of Edward Dalziel, the engraver.

		Alice never could quite make out, in thinking it over afterwards, how it was that they began: all she remembers is, that they were running hand in hand, and the Queen went so fast that it was all she could do to keep up with her: and still the Queen kept crying "Faster!
		The most curious part of the thing was, that the trees and the other things round them never changed their places at all: however fast they went, they never seemed to pass anything.
		Faster!" And they went so fast that at last they seemed to skim through the air, hardly touching the ground with their feet, till suddenly, just as Alice was getting quite exhausted, they stopped, and she found herself sitting on the ground, breathless and giddy.
