This is an annotated copy of “Through the Looking-Glass and what Alice foundt there”. The annotations don’t analyse ‘hidden meanings’ and references to actual people or events, like Martin Gardner’s “Annotated Alice” does, but they clarify the narrative structure of the story, and draw our attention to things like the gender of characters, death jokes, Carroll’s writing skills, possible errors in the story line, etc.

The Anniversary Deluxe Edition of this well-known ‘Alice bible’ compiles over half a century of scholarship by leading Carrollian experts to reveal the history and full depth of the Alice books and their author. It combines the previous ‘Annotated Alice’ editions and includes over 100 new or updated annotations, illustrations from other illustrators and a filmography.

In this book, Peter Hunt mainly discusses the three ‘layers’ that can be found in the Alice in Wonderland books (including Alice’s Adventures Under Ground): private jokes that only Alice and her sisters would understand, references to things in their society, and Dodgson’s private thoughts and feelings.

About the life, political cartoons and illustrations of John Tenniel, the illustrator of the ‘Alice’ books.

This very interesting book from Michael Hancher compares Tenniel’s illustrations for the ‘Alice’ books to his other work (a.o. for the magazine Punch), and illustrations from Tenniel’s contemporaries. It also explains the production process of the illustrations, and how this process influenced the final look of Tenniel’s illustrations.
