"Once upon a time, there was a little girl called Alice: and she had a very curious dream. Would you like to hear what it was that she dreamed about? Well, this was the first thing that happened. A White Rabbit came running by, in a great hurry; and, just as it passed Alice, it stopped, and took its watch out of its pocket."

The first French translation of Alice''s Adventures in Wonderland (there have been no less than seventeen others) was supervised by Lewis Carroll himself. In the opinion of many experts, and countless older and younger French readers, it is still the best. It has a remarkable freshness and originality, and admirably renders the English puns and parodies with French equivalents. "How Doth the Little Crocodile?" for instance, is turned into a parody of La Fontaine, the staple of French lesson books. Carroll picked Henri Bué as translator on the recommendation of Bué''s father, who was an Oxford colleague. The younger Bué was just at the beginning of his career, and Carroll could not have known that he would go on to distinguish himself both as a translator and as an author and editor. Bué worked rapidly, and had the translation done in a couple of months. Carroll, on the other hand, spent another two years making certain of it. He solicited the opinions of many friends to test the puns and verses. The prose he seems to have been able to judge for himself, and he wrote to his publisher that he was highly pleased with it. This reprinting of the first edition is complete with the forty-two Tenniel illustrations that were originally included. 8.5x11'''' Large Print Matte Cover

In 1862 Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, a shy Oxford mathematician with a stammer, created a story about a little girl tumbling down a rabbit hole. Thus began the immortal adventures of Alice, perhaps the most popular heroine in English literature. Matte Cover 8.5x11'' Can be used as a coloring book

A translation of ''Alice''s Adventures in Wonderland'' into Ulster Scots.

"Alice''s Adventures in Wonderland" estas somera rakonto, unue publikigita de Lewis Carroll (plumnomo de Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) en julio 1865. Multaj el la personoj kaj aventuroj en tiu libro bazi as sur ludkartaro, ekzemple la malbonhumora Re ino de Keroj. "Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There," alimane, estas vintra rakonto, unue publikigita de Carroll en decembro 1871, en kiu la plejmulto de la personaro kaj aventuroj bazi as sur akludo. (Du personoj el la unua historio, la Marta Leporo kaj la apelisto, denove aperas en la dua sub aspekto de mesa istoj de la Blanka Re o, Haigha kaj Hatta.) En "Through the Looking-Glass" Carroll anka pli celas al plena aj legantoj ol en sia anta a libro, uzante pli da vortludado kaj logikaj paradoksoj. e la fino de tiu i libro oni anka trovos la "subpremitan" epizodon "La Vespo en Peruko." Carroll originale intencis ke i tio estu parto de apitro VIII de "Through the Looking-Glass," sed li forigis in nelonge anta publikigado pro la instigo de John Tenniel, ilustristo de la unuaj eldonoj de amba verkoj. La Esperanta traduko de "Through the Looking-Glass" de Donald Broadribb estis unue eldonita de Bookleaf Publishing (Beverley, Okcidenta A stralio) en 1996, sub la titolo "Tra la Spegulo kaj kion Alico trovis tie." i tiu verko de Broadribb restas la sola kompleta Esperanta traduko de "Through the Looking-Glass," kvankam aliuloj estas tradukintaj kelkajn el la unuopaj poemoj en la libro, plej notinde "Jabberwocky," kiu ekzistas en ne malpli ol kvar Esperantaj versioj krom tiu de Broadribb. i tiuj kvar tradukoj aperas i-volume en apendicoj post "La Vespo en Peruko." -- "Alice''s Adventures in Wonderland" is a summer tale, published by Lewis Carroll (pen-name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) for the first time in July 1865. Many of the characters and adventures in that book are based on a pack of playing cards, such as the ill-tempered Queen of Hearts. "Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There," on the other hand, is a winter tale, first published by Carroll in December 1871, in which most of the characters and adventures are based on the game of chess. (Two characters from the first tale, the March Hare and the Hatter, reappear in the second in the guise of the White King''s messengers, Haigha and Hatta.) "Through the Looking-Glass" is also more a book for adults than than its predecessor, featuring more word-play and logical paradoxes. At the end of the book you will also find the "suppressed" episode "The Wasp in a Wig." This was originally intended to be part of Chapter VIII of "Through the Looking-Glass," but Carroll omitted it shortly before publication at the urging of John Tenniel, who illustrated the first editions of both books. Donald Broadribb''s Esperanto translation of "Through the Looking-Glass" was first published by Bookleaf Publishing (Beverley, Western Australia) in 1996, under the title "Tra la Spegulo kaj kion Alico trovis tie." To date Broadribb''s work remains the only Esperanto translation of Carroll''s sequel, though several of the individual poems in "Through the Looking-Glass" have been translated by others, most notably "Jabberwocky," which exists in no fewer than four Esperanto versions besides Broadribb''s. These four translations are presented in this volume as appendices following "The Wasp in a Wig."

A delightfully twisted pair of tales published first in 1865 and 1872 respectively, these beloved children''s stories were rife with political satire and social commentary of the day, even as they included friends of the author among the peculiar and anthropomorphic characters. Their nonsensical logic has influenced virtually every author of fantasy since, as well as inspiring countless worlds of wonder and the imagination. They remain as popular, and as profound today as when they first came into print; a feat remarkable in the fact that neither has ever not been available. This edition restores the original illustrations of Sir John Tenniel, a topical cartoonist whose classic caricatures gave us the most memorable depictions of Alice, and her adventures both in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. As life imitates art, these exploits came about as a way to entertain a very real little girl named Alice, whose alter ego was very bored, and let her young imagination carry her away...Alice in Wonderland - in which Alice follows a white rabbit in a waistcoat and hurriedly checking a pocket watch down what she believes to be the hole to his burrow. Instead, she falls slowly down a tunnel lined with curious objects, to land softly in a room with doors of different sizes. With the smallest of them behind a curtain before a table upon which sits a golden key and a potion labeled "Drink Me", she makes a fateful decision that leads her into a series of equally improbable and unforgettable situations...Through the Look Glass - in which Alice, now playing with the kitten of her cat in the first book, ponders the reflection in the wall mirror hung above the fireplace. Climbing up the mantle over the hearth, she leans against the glass and in a moment has passed through to its opposite side. Once there, she learns again just how contrary and unpredictable this other world beyond the one we know can be...

"Alice''s Adventures in Wonderland" is a summer tale published by Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) for the first time in July 1865. Nicholas Williams translated this into Irish under the title "Eachtrai Eilise i dTir na nIontas" (Evertype 2007). Many of the characters and adventures in that book belong to a pack of cards. "Lastall den Scathan agus a bhFuair Eilis Ann Roimpi"-a winter tale-is Williams'' Irish translation of "Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There," which Carroll first published in December 1871. Its characters and adventures are based on a game of chess. This book contains the famous illustrations of Sir John Tenniel, which first appeared in the original English edition. -- Sceal samhraidh ata in "Alice''s Adventures in Wonderland" a d''fhoilsigh Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) den chead uair i mi Iuil 1865.

Famed for his Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, Lewis Caroll produced comic verse, puzzles and much more, all of which are included in this complete illustrated collection.

Durch ein Kaninchenloch gelangt Alice in ein seltsames Land, in dem alles anders funktioniert, als sie es gewohnt ist.

In his satires of the medieval revival in Punch in the 1850s, Tenniel deyeloped a purely visual, gestural, historicist burlesque that parodied the revival but was also a genuine adaptation of historical forms to a contemporary context. He created a traditionalistic cosmos in which the past permeated and enriched the present - culminating in the great high satire of his Alice work; a triumph of English common sense.

An anthology of Carroll''s fiction and poetry features Alice''s Adventures in Wonderland, Through the Looking-glass, Alice''s Adventures Underground, The Hunting of the Snark, and Rhyme? and Reason?

This book explores the work of Sir John Tenniel, the artist who illustrated the first editions of Lewis Carroll''s best-known works. Although Tenniel and Carroll parted ways after publication of Through the Looking-Glass, the artist''s designs fixed in the public''s mind images of Carroll''s characters that thrive down to the present day.
