With an Introduction and Notes by Michael Irwin; Professor of English Literature; University of Kent at Canterbury. Tweedledum and Tweedledee; the Mad Hatter; the Cheshire Cat; the Red Queen and the White Rabbit all make their appearances; and are now familiar figures in writing; conversation and idiom. So too are Carrolls delightful verses such as the Walrus and the Carpenter and the inspired jargon of that masterly Wordsworthian parody; the Jabberwocky.
