    I consider the quote "You're nothing but a pack of cards!" essential to maturity. Our minds give us uncomfortable thoughts and feelings and we begin to lose sense due to the fears it gives us, but the quote symbolises how Alice is in charge of her own mind and deems the card army as simply toy cards that can't do her any harm, proven by the fact that they were simply tree leaves.

    Thanks! I was a bit confused when I finished reading. I noticed most of the hints but couldn’t convert my analysis into words. This video was very helpful!

    I have a copy of the "The Complete Illustrated Lewis Carroll" illustrated by John Tenniel, Wordsworth Editions 2008. I hope you enjoy the following pages: 14, 113, 139, 140, 160, 186, 200, 218, 226 & 234. I can't help but feel that Mr Carroll was a spiritual man because he gave her a safe exit out of the maze, he gave the story a happy ending. 🧡

    Super helpful!! It is in some ways the character of Alice was a response to the patriarchal society of how women should conduct themselves since Alice gradually started questioning.

    Weird I just read Alice in wonderland. I was confused and thought I misunderstood it. This guys synopsis leads me to believe I had a grasp of the book. I just thought it was horrible. I cant believe this book is a famous classic. Maybe for a 7th grader it may be ok. But I wouldn't recommend it for a adult.

      @@cristiniarguedini6186 That's the point! It was structured as if it was a dream. The book was made to be fun and entertaining without moral or lesson unlike the children's books at the time. Part of its comedy does comment on the Victorian education system, mostly for little girls, but the book is supposed to be nonsense. In fact the most sense you can make out of this is by looking at Alice as a reflection of the Victorian little girl and by using comparisons to "common" themes such as the young protagonist going through a journey to discover themselves and that dreams reflect reality/a person's mind and fears so Wonderland is a wrapped version of the Alice's (a Victorian child) world but it's more apparent in Looking Through the Glass.
      The author meant nothing with the book. Sure you can get your own conclusions and interpretations but at its core Alice's Adventures are nonsensical. The character of the Duchess is the prime reason why searching for meaning is reaching, sort of useless, and almost contradictory: why search for a moral in everything? Some things do not have sense or meaning. Though you could overanalyze THAT as well!

      There's various different interpretations of the book floating about, but you must remember the playful nonsensical nature appeals more to the audience it was originally written for: children.
      A lot of the events in the book appear purely chaotic in nature but Alice is mostly unfazed by all of them (merely sometimes remarking that it's a bit odd). This is very similar to how young children react to new situations; they kind of just accept the situation as it is, as they don't rely on reasoning as much. In that regard the book does a very good job at portraying a child's fantasy.

    3:05 "some scholars have suggested that this is because Alice typifies the obedient victorian female obeying the rules of a patriarchal society". Really? Are they saying that Carroll is suggesting this? In which case, by the same reasoning, you can pretty much come up with the same comment about any book ever written except the phone book. Or, is it just you doing the good work for snowflake university? The phone book was a collection of names listed in alphabetical order with their corresponding hard wired telephone device 7 digits number. Although the great majority of the listed names were male, about 50% of them were actual females that were denied their true female identity.

    What do you mean by "Who are you?" the Caterpillar asks her. Alice replies in a negative, defensive, and tentative way: "I - I hardly know, Sir, just at present - at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then."
