A reissue, with a new box design and new jackets, to mark the 125th anniversary of Macmillan's publication of "Wonderland".
On July 4, 1862, a young clergyman teaching Mathematics at Christ Church College in Oxford went on an outing with the three daughters of the Dean. The cheerful group enjoyed a boating trip late into the afternoon, filled with laughter, joy, songs, and stories. On that memorable day, in the sunny waters of the river, Alice was born. Alice, the heroine destined to become as legendary as Cinderella and Snow White, would be adored by generations and captivate millions of readers of all ages. The two books by Lewis Carroll that emerged are now classics. In the first, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," the young heroine gets lost in a captivating dream in a fairy-tale land; in the second, "Through the Looking-Glass," she experiences the strangest adventures in an inverted reality. Written with humor and tenderness, these works are clever, sensitive, and multi-layered, enriching the way we see and think about things. Today, the "spirit" of Alice is an integral part of European culture: it will forever continue to introduce the marvelous world of imagination and inspire future generations.
This edition contains Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking Glass. It is illustrated throughout by Sir John Tenniel, whose drawings for the books add so much to the enjoyment of them.
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a novel by Lewis Carroll that tells the story of a girl named Alice who falls through a rabbit hole into a fantastical world filled with peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. In this whimsical realm, Alice encounters a series of bizarre characters and experiences nonsensical events that challenge her understanding of reality. The narrative explores themes of identity, curiosity, and the absurdity of life, as Alice navigates through a landscape where logic is turned upside down. The story is a reflection on the nature of childhood and imagination, inviting readers to embrace the wonder and chaos of a world unbound by the rules of the ordinary. Carroll's inventive language and playful storytelling create a rich tapestry of adventure, making Alice's journey both enchanting and thought-provoking.
Alenka v říši divů je dílo anglického matematika a logika Lewise Carrolla, který ji údajně napsal pro malou holčičku Alici Liddellovou. Dílu se dostalo vědecké interpretace a bylo označeno za mimořádné. Sama hlavní postava, neustále ohromená Alenka v bezděčných reakcích na imaginativní svět plný podivuhodných věcí a událostí, Carrollův um logicky svázat absurdum světa v celé šíři a líčená přirozenost i znalost dětského chování, zaručili dílu světové uznání a přerod v klasiku. Toto vydání obsahuje tzv. přívazek. Jsou to totiž dvě knihy v jedné vazbě (136 str. a 154 str.) a původně zřejmě měly vycházet zvlášť.
