A Dream In Another Moment Down Went Alice By Alice

Late rabbits, talking cats, and dancing cards are just some of the un-natural occurrences that take place in Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. In today’s society with competing books, such as Harry Potter, these elements in the book may seem like no big deal, but for the time period the book was published, these were anything but normal. This children’s book was first published in 1865 in the United Kingdom; during the Victorian time period, named after Queen Victoria. The book, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland represents a satire on the Victorian Era and how people were expected to act, through which Carroll displays an overall theme of growing up.

I am Alice when I read; Alice goes seeking adventure in wonderland, just as I do when reading, to escape reality. Alice was finding out herself that people could be little pieces of something, something that could be exchanged by a senseless force. Lost in Wonderland, the little girl was confused and scared and nevertheless shows true bravery in the face of her insecurities. She exchanges sense for non-sense, in an all-encompassing attempt to be able to take hold of even the most intimate core of her, so that she is forced to discover who she really is and find her identity. Like a child who is sleeping, ideology in fictional stories, quietly seeps through the narrative cracks of novels. It is embodied as an unconscious knowledge, a knowledge that doesn't know itself, and that needs to be understood and pondered by the readers. ‘Alice in Wonderland’, seen to most as simply a children’s story, has so much more depth and deals with classis themes such as coming of

I open my eyes to the beeping of Alice’s alarm. She doesn’t get up. I go to her side, telling her to wake up. She rolls over, facing away from me. I touch her shoulder, causing her to shiver. She still doesn’t get up. I decide she needs to rest. She should take a day off. Her mother comes to the door and tries to wake her up, but fails too. She leaves Alice alone. I guess she decided to let Alice rest too.

Alice then began to sneak out, and explore the intricate hedge maze as she wanted to leave the unfortunate wedding. As she walked along she smelt the freshly picked white roses and felt the glistening sun on her, she loved the feeling of being alone; being isolated from everyone, she didn’t want to be like everyone else and end up getting married, settle down and have kids, she wanted to explore and adventure around the world.

Alice is forced to take control in Wonderland when she provides the teaching role in the adult-child relationship evident when Alice says “’Don’t grunt”, said Alice; “that’s not at all a proper way of expressing yourself’” (Carroll 47) to the Duchess. Alice seeks to find order in Wonderland by using her knowledge from home to navigate through the secondary world when she recalls book related advice such as, “if you drink from a bottle marked “poison”, it is almost certain to disagree with you, sooner or later”(11). This advice has no relevance, and her book knowledge is not applicable in a savage place such as Wonderland. Alice is automatically belittled by the narrator and portrays an unintelligent child. Alice is playing the role of an adult and child because she is in a transitory phase of life where she is maintaining good Victorian ideals distinct among adults yet still living in the imaginary childish fantasy of Wonderland where her adult maturity is often deflated, as well.
