Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland has entertained not only children but adults for over one hundred years. The tale has become a treasure of philosophers, literary critics, psychoanalysts, and linguists. It also has attracted Carroll's fellow mathematicians and logicians. There appears to be something in Alice for everyone, and there are almost as many explanations of the work as there are commentators. It may be perhaps Carroll's fantastical style of writing that entertains the reader

Or so her father had always told her. “Be careful out there, Margaret,” he would say, his eyes hard and sharp like ice. “There are people who would take advantage of a pretty thing like you. Always keep your guard up.” This trip, as thrilling as it was, was also a little bit scary. People would eye her curiously along her bus route. She kept her tickets clutched hard in her gloved hands, making sure no one pilfered them. Although she had a feeling that her father meant something very different when

The Roaring Twenties, widely known as the “era of wonderful nonsense” and characterized by a disillusionment with American foreign policy abroad after a stark World War I death toll, was all about the new–new pleasures, new technologies, new consumer products (Pattern 4). The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald is set in this tumultuous period in American history, also marked by enormous income and wealth inequality, ultimately leading to the Great Depression.

Men wore corsets and figure hugging clothing By the early 14th century, male clothing had become extremely saucy and revealing. Fashionable young noblemen paraded around in tights and court pieces. Very short tunics and tight corsets were a common medieval clothing. 4. Medieval shoes could be up to two

Mrs. Bennet makes that opinion clear at the start of the book, stating that the very idea of a man falling in love with one of her daughters the moment he lays eyes on her is preposterous. "Design! Nonsense, how can you talk so! But it is very likely that he may fall in love with one of them, and therefore you must visit him as soon as he comes" (Austen 2). Shakespeare on the other hand, does believe in love at first sight. The moment Romeo sees Juliet

Although Anzia Yezierska’s novel Breadgivers (1925) and F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The Great Gatsby have many differences, I believe that the similarities between the two are the most important to understanding the 1920’s in American culture. These novels excellently represent two completely different sides of American culture during this period of time while also making a unified statement about the issues and concerns facing Americans, particularly young, impressionable adults, at the time.

We are all having a good time. I take a look at my watch and notice that it
