The Place of Lewis Carroll in Children`s Literature

Lewis Carroll had an enormous impact on children`s literature. In this book, Jan Susina examines the cultural context of Carroll`s work, and situates the Alice books in relation to Carroll`s juvenilia, his letters, his photographs of children, and his final work for children, Sylvie and Bruno. Susina also surveys the Alice industry that Carroll produced in the 19th century, as well as the many modern adaptations of the story. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
