Lewis Carroll strana 8 z 10

"Alices Abenteur im Wunderland "(translated by Antonie Zimmermann) was the first translation of Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland" to appear after the book's initial publication and success in 1865. Carroll himself supervised the production and printing of the German edition. His correspondence with Macmillan (his English publisher who conducted the negotiations with Leipzig) reveals how exacting he was over such matters as format, margins, picture placement, paper, binding, price, and even certain textual details. When the translation finally appeared in 1869, Carroll was immensely pleased with it and presented a specially bound copy to Princess Beatrix, the daughter of Queen Victoria. The translation of Alice's "Adventures in Wonderland" has always presented a special problem. The humor, popular children's verses, songs, and especially the puns were thought at first to make it untranslatable. The problem was solved by Antonie Zimmermann with the hearty approval of Carroll by substituting popular German children's verses and puns for the English originals. "How Doth the Little Crocodile?" for instance, is turned into a parody of a German Romantic ballad. All in all, this is still the best of the 15 or more German translations."

In this edition Lewis Carroll's original story of little Alice's tumble down a rabbit hole is brought to life by stunning illustrations from John Tenniel.

Alice au pays des merveilles

Begin at the beginning, and go on till you come to the end: then stop.'. So many readers were to take the advice of the King of Hearts that by the end of the nineteenth century the double Alice (1865 and 1872) had acquired a pre-eminent and unassailable position in children's literature. Lewis Carroll's use of logic, by which the ordinary is translated into the extraordinary in an entirely plausible way, is delightfully combined with an exceptional knowledge and understanding of the mind of the child. Satire, allusion, and symbolism weave deeper and mysterious meanings, lending a measure of immortality to Carroll's remarkable fantasy.

For more than a century, Lewis Carroll's classic stories of logic and lunacy have inspired delight in young and old alike. Alice Through the Looking-Glass continues Alice's adventures and sees her walking through a mirror into a topsy-turvy world. There she meets a host of bizarre characters, including Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Humpty Dumpty and the Red Queen. But is it all a dream?

Un jour d'été, la curiosité d'Alice l'entraîne à la poursuite d'un mystérieux lapin blanc. En le suivant dans un terrier, elle rencontre de surprenants personnages et vit des aventures étonnantes...
