One winter night, at half-past nine, Cold, tired, and cross, and muddy, I had come home, too late to dine, And supper, with cigars and wine, Was waiting in the study. There was a strangeness in the room, And Something white and wavy Was standing near me in the gloom -- I took it for the carpet-broom Left by that careless slavey. But presently the Thing began To shiver and to sneeze: On which I said "Come, come, my man! That's a most inconsiderate plan. Less noise there, if you please!" "I've caught a cold," the Thing replies, "Out there upon the landing." I turned to look in some surprise, And there, before my very eyes, A little Ghost was standing!....... Charles Lutwidge Dodgson ( 27 January 1832 - 14 January 1898), better known by his pen name Lewis Carroll, was an English writer, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon, and photographer. His most famous writings are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, its sequel Through the Looking-Glass, which includes the poem "Jabberwocky", and the poem The Hunting of the Snark - all examples of the genre of literary nonsense. He is noted for his facility at word play, logic and fantasy. There are societies in many parts of the world dedicated to the enjoyment and promotion of his works and the investigation of his life. From a young age, Dodgson wrote poetry and short stories, contributing heavily to the family magazine Mischmasch and later sending them to various magazines, enjoying moderate success. Between 1854 and 1856, his work appeared in the national publications The Comic Times and The Train, as well as smaller magazines such as the Whitby Gazette and the Oxford Critic. Most of this output was humorous, sometimes satirical, but his standards and ambitions were exacting. "I do not think I have yet written anything worthy of real publication (in which I do not include the Whitby Gazette or the Oxonian Advertiser), but I do not despair of doing so some day," he wrote in July 1855. Sometime after 1850, he did write puppet plays for his siblings' entertainment, of which one has survived: La Guida di Bragia. In 1856, he published his first piece of work under the name that would make him famous. A romantic poem called "Solitude" appeared in The Train under the authorship of "Lewis Carroll". This pseudonym was a play on his real name: Lewis was the anglicised form of Ludovicus, which was the Latin for Lutwidge, and Carroll an Irish surname similar to the Latin name Carolus, from which comes the name Charles. The transition went as follows: "Charles Lutwidge" translated into Latin as "Carolus Ludovicus". This was then translated back into English as "Carroll Lewis" and then reversed to make "Lewis Carroll".This pseudonym was chosen by editor Edmund Yates from a list of four submitted by Dodgson, the others being Edgar Cuthwellis, Edgar U. C. Westhill, and Louis Carroll. In 1856, Dean (i.e., head of the college) Henry Liddell arrived at Christ Church, bringing with him his young family, all of whom would figure largely in Dodgson's life over the following years, and would greatly influence his writing career. Dodgson became close friends with Liddell's wife Lorina and their children, particularly the three sisters Lorina, Edith, and Alice Liddell. He was widely assumed for many years to have derived his own "Alice" from Alice Liddell; the acrostic poem at the end of Through the Looking Glass spells out her name in full, and there are also many superficial references to her hidden in the text of both books. It has been noted that Dodgson himself repeatedly denied in later life that his "little heroine" was based on any real child, and he frequently dedicated his works to girls of his acquaintance, adding their names in acrostic poems at the beginning of the text. Gertrude Chataway's name appears in this form at the beginning of The Hunting of the Snark, and it is not suggested that this means that any of the characters in the narrative are based on her...........

When Alice travels through the looking glass, she enters a fantastical world where everything is backwards and nothing makes sense. Thrust into a chess game on a life-size board, Alice must navigate her way through a host of absurd characters, including Humpty Dumpty, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, and the formidable Red Queen. But if Alice can play her way safely to the other side, she might just become a queen herself!Andrew Biliter's adaptation skillfully captures Lewis Carroll's delightfully madcap tale of self-discovery, absurdity, and pretend.

Sylvie e Bruno, pubblicato nel 1889, è il terzo e ultimo romanzo di Lewis Carroll, ben più famoso come autore di "Alice nel paese delle meraviglie". Il romanzo è piuttosto eterogeneo, e parti decisamente adatte ai ragazzi con semplici storie e filastrocche, si alternano con discussioni di tipo filosofico e religioso, o dialoghi che si svolgono sulla vena dell'assurdo, tipici dell'autore. Nelle due prefazioni che accompagnano i due volumi di cui si compone il libro (che infatti fu pubblicato in due tempi diversi) l'autore illustra la teoria che ispira il libro, e che propone uno stato di coscienza ordinaria (che si accompagna ad avvenimenti di vita reale del libro) e uno stato di coscienza "magica" (in cui il protagonista interagisce con una realtà non ordinaria, e incontra le due fate, Sylvie e Bruno, che danno il titolo al libro). Un libro complesso e apprezzabile che ovviamente non ebbe lo stesso successo della storia di Alice, ma che fu poi rivalutato nella seconda metà del Novecento, insieme a molta letteratura fantastica. Impreziosiscono il libro le illustrazioni originali di Harry Furniss.Traduzione di Silvia Cecchini.

It is a classic, written in 1865, that is enjoyed by both children and adults. As Alice slips into a dream, she finds herself chasing after a white rabbit with a waist coat and pocket watch. He heads down a rabbit hole but as Alice follows, she falls into a world very different from her own. A world with Cheshire cats, mad-hatters, packs of living playing cards, and an array of characters which will make Alice's head spin as she manoeuvres cautiously through Wonderland. She meets a lot of characters, some helpful while others plain evil. In her Wonderland, everyone has a story and a lesson to teach.

Through the Looking-Glass, (1871) is a novel by Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson), the sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865). Set some six months later than the earlier book, Alice again enters a fantastical world, this time by climbing through a mirror into the world that she can see beyond it. Through the Looking-Glass includes such celebrated verses as "Jabberwocky" and "The Walrus and the Carpenter", and the episode involving Tweedledum and Tweedledee.

Alicia en el país de las maravillas, es una obra de literatura creada por el matemático, lógico y escritor británico Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, más conocido bajo el seudónimo de Lewis Carroll. El cuento está lleno de alusiones satíricas a los amigos de Dodgson, la educación inglesa y temas políticos de la época. El País de las Maravillas que se describe en la historia es creado básicamente a través de juegos con la lógica, de una forma tan especial que la obra ha llegado a tener popularidad en los más variados ambientes, desde niños o matemáticos hasta psiconautas. En esta obra aparecen algunos de los personajes más famosos de Carroll, como el Conejo Blanco, El Sombrerero, la Oruga azul, el Gato de Cheshire o la Reina de Corazones; quienes han cobrado importancia suficiente para ser reconocidos fuera del mundo de Alicia. El libro tiene una segunda parte, menos conocida, llamada A través del espejo y lo que Alicia encontró allí. Alice was published in 1865, three years after Charles Lutwidge Dodgson and the Reverend Robinson Duckworth rowed in a boat on 4 July 1862 (this popular date of the "golden afternoon" might be a confusion or even another Alice-tale, for that particular day was cool, cloudy, and rainy) up the Isis with the three young daughters of Henry Liddell (the Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University and Dean of Christ Church): Lorina Charlotte Liddell (aged 13, born 1849, "Prima" in the book's prefatory verse); Alice Pleasance Liddell (aged 10, born 1852, "Secunda" in the prefatory verse); Edith Mary Liddell (aged 8, born 1853, "Tertia" in the prefatory verse). The journey began at Folly Bridge near Oxford and ended five miles away in the village of Godstow. During the trip, Dodgson told the girls a story that featured a bored little girl named Alice who goes looking for an adventure. The girls loved it, and Alice Liddell asked Dodgson to write it down for her. He began writing the manuscript of the story the next day, although that earliest version no longer exists. The girls and Dodgson took another boat trip a month later when he elaborated the plot to the story of Alice, and in November he began working on the manuscript in earnest. To add the finishing touches, he researched natural history for the animals presented in the book, and then had the book examined by other children-particularly 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 had been well liked by children. On 26 November 1864, he gave Alice the handwritten manuscript of Alice's Adventures Under Ground, with illustrations by Dodgson himself, dedicating it as "A Christmas Gift to a Dear Child in Memory of a Summer's Day". Some, including Martin Gardner, speculate that there was an earlier version that was destroyed later by Dodgson when he wrote a more elaborate copy by hand. But before Alice received her copy, Dodgson was already preparing it for publication and expanding the 15,500-word original to 27,500 words, most notably adding the episodes about the Cheshire Cat and the Mad Tea-Party.

In 1865, Charles Lutwidge Dodson composed a fantasy tale for a trio of young sisters. His creative genius and childlike ability to imagine a universe like no other took form in one of the most treasured children's books of all time. Under the pen-name of Lewis Carroll, Dodson's tale of an intrepid little girl who discovers a surreal, beautiful, and dangerous land would has shared its magic with generations of readers. His Cheshire Cat, Mad Hatter, and Queen of Hearts have become cultural icons, to say nothing of the heroic young Alice herself.

Una cosa era certa: che il micino bianco non c'entrava affatto: la colpa era tutta del nero. Durante l'ultimo quarto d'ora Dina, la gatta madre, aveva lavata la faccia al micino bianco (operazione che il micino dopo tutto, aveva sopportato con dignità); era quindi chiaro che esso non aveva potuto aver parte nel misfatto. Il modo come Dina lavava la faccia ai figli era questo: prima teneva il poverino per l'orecchio con una zampa, e poi con l'altra gli stropicciava tutto quanto il muso, contro pelo, principiando dal naso; e proprio poco prima, come ho detto, era stata occupatissima col micino bianco, che se ne stava tranquillo e calmo tentando di far le fusa, certo col sentimento che tutt...

A través del espejo y lo que Alicia encontró allí es una novela infantil escrita por Lewis Carroll en 1871. Es la continuación de Las aventuras de Alicia en el país de las maravillas (aunque no hace referencias a lo que ocurre en ese libro). Muchas cosas de las que acontecen en el libro parecen, metafóricamente, reflejadas en un espejo. Mientras Alicia está meditando sobre cómo debe de ser el mundo al otro lado del espejo de su casa, se sorprende al comprobar que puede pasar a través de él y descubrir de primera mano lo que ahí ocurre. Así lo hace, y llega a una sala en la que las piezas de ajedrez parecen cobrar vida. En esta ocasión Alicia se ve envuelta en una loca partida de ajedrez.

Alicia a traves del Espejo es la continuación de Las aventuras de Alicia en el país de las maravillas (aunque no hace referencias a lo que ocurre en ese libro). Muchas cosas de las que acontecen en el libro parecen, metafóricamente, reflejadas en un espejo. Mientras que el primer libro juega con cartas vivientes, en esta ocasión Alicia se ve envuelta en una loca partida de ajedrez. Carroll nos proporciona una lista de los movimientos que en ella se producen, aunque algunos de ellos van en contra de las reglas del juego, como si fuera un niño pequeño el que estuviera jugando. No aparecen personajes exactos de Alicia en el país de las maravillas, sólo se toma la imagen del Sombrerero como Hatta (cuya pronunciación en inglés suena muy parecido a Hatter, sombrerero) y la Liebre de Marzo como Haiga (cuya pronunciación en inglés suena como a Hare, liebre) que aparece en el capítulo séptimo (El León y el Unicornio), un personaje diferente en este segundo libro.

"...In the last two decades we've experienced an onslaught of such twisted logic that if Alice were visiting America, she might think she'd never left Wonderland..."-President Ronald Reagan - September 25, 1982 Ronald Reagan's Adventures in Wonderland answers the question: What experience might the most emblematic figure of classic American values have in present-day America? Reagan in Wonderland is a fan-fiction literary mashup tribute placing 40th US President Ronald Reagan in the place of Alice in Lewis Carroll's beloved Alice in Wonderland; literature's most-legendary whimsy starring the world's most-legendary president. Alice's frustrations in the nonsensical world of Wonderland are a perfect metaphor for Reagan-era values seemingly at odds with our nation's current political expressions, both conservative and liberal. As Alice never seemed to "fit" in Wonderland, nor would it seem President Reagan fit in the seismic chaos of modern-day cultural faultlines. Through Alice's words, however, the late president and Great Communicator is a granted a voice once again. And in this modified rendering, featuring 42 original and Reagan-ized illustrations, The Gipper has a lot to say. Is this book a mere Alice in Wonderland with Ronald Reagan in Alice's place? Nay, friend; it is so much more: Ronald Reagan fans and historians alike will revel at the Reagan trivia and references which trickle down throughout the book. The original British English of Carroll's text has been converted to American English because America is the Undefeated World War Champion (also, for readability). Where Alice's age is referenced, Mr. Reagan here is presented during his presidency. As such, even Vice President Bush makes an appearance! For the ultimate Ronald Reagan fan, collector of Alice in Wonderland ephemera, or anyone who enjoys a thoughtful read, Ronald Reagan's Adventures in Wonderland is a fun mashup that is not only hysterical, but topical, too.

Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There is the sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (aka Alice in Wonderland). The book plays out in sort-of a mirror image of the first adventure, but uses a chess motif. This Large Print Edition is presented in easy-to-read 16 point type.

Alice, qui s'ennuie, s'endort dans un fauteuil et rêve qu'elle passe de l'autre côté du miroir du salon.Le monde du miroir est à la fois la campagne anglaise, un échiquier, et le monde à l'envers, où il faut courir très vite pour rester sur place. Alice y croise des pièces d'échecs (reine, cavalier) et des personnages de la culture enfantine de l'époque victorienne.On retrouve dans ce roman le mélange de poésie, d'humour et de non-sens qui fait le charme de Lewis Carroll. Il vaut mieux connaître les règles de base du jeu d'échecs pour apprécier toutes les subtilités du roman.
