Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

Product Information

En mi caso tenía muy presente las adaptaciones que había visto, o los cuentitos recortados que había leído de pequeño y aunque todos me habían gustado, ninguno me había atrapado tanto como la historia original. Muchos personajes entrañables no han pasado a la gran pantalla, y por lo tanto, muchas de estas situaciones extravagantes se quedaban en el olvido. Personajes como la duquesa eran desconocidas totalmente para mí.

Carroll began writing the manuscript of the story the next day, although that earliest version is lost. The girls and Carroll 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. [20] To add the finishing touches he researched natural history in connection with the animals presented in the book and then had the book examined by other children—particularly those of George MacDonald. Though Carroll did add his own illustrations to the original copy, on publication he was advised to find a professional illustrator so the pictures were more appealing to its audiences. He subsequently approached John Tenniel to reinterpret Carroll's visions through his own artistic eye, telling him that the story had been well liked by the children. [20] Ray, Gordon Norton (1976).

This is one case where I think the movies (at least the ones I have seen) have done a pretty good job stream-lining the story to improve the delivery. The essence of each of Alice's adventures is usually captured perfectly with excessively trippy material edited perfectly so as to not lose the viewer. Not often you can say the movie is better than the book! Jaques, Zoe; Giddens, Eugene (2012). Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass: A Publishing History.

During the trip Carroll told the girls a story that he described in his diary as "Alice's Adventures Under Ground" and which his journal says he "undertook to write out for Alice". [9] Alice Liddell recalled that she asked Carroll to write it down: unlike other stories he had told her, this one she wanted to preserve. [10] She finally received the manuscript more than two years later.
