内容简介
《爱丽丝漫游奇境》与《镜中奇遇》是英国著名作家、逻辑学家与数学家刘易斯·卡罗尔创作的儿童文学经典,亦被认为是维多利亚时代胡话文学的典范之作。卡罗尔以丰富的想象力和孩子般的纯真之心,结合逻辑学家与数学家的奇思妙想,书写了爱丽丝的两段奇遇。先是掉入兔子洞,再是进入镜中屋,爱丽丝经历了无数神奇的变化,与柴郡猫、疯帽匠、白骑士这样的古怪角色相遇,在种种离奇的对话与游戏中流露出尖新的童趣与深刻的哲理。
马丁·加德纳五十多年来持续研究《爱丽丝漫游奇境》与《爱丽丝镜中奇遇》,分别于1960年、1990年与1999年出版三部《爱丽丝注释本》,其中包含大量内容详尽的注释与相关研究材料,为当代读者释疑解惑,被公认为卡罗尔研究的经典之作。本书即融合了这三本书的内容,由北美卡罗尔学会主席马克·伯斯坦加以更新完善的一百五十周年豪华纪念版。
本书完整收录两部《爱丽丝》以及被删去的片段《假发黄蜂》。五篇导言与数百条经过修订的注释跨越逻辑、数学、哲学、历史、文学等领域,通过集释与漫谈的方式深度揭示蕴藏于故事细节中的奇思与妙趣。同时,广泛收集全世界的艺术家为爱丽丝故事创作的上百张精美插画,增补更新包括“影视改编清单”“插画家简介”在内的多种研究材料。就如马丁·加德纳所言,“我的任务并不是要进行原创性的研究,而是要尽可能地从既有的文献中取材,撰写注释,让当代的读者更能享受阅读《爱丽丝》的乐趣”。
Celebrating the 150th anniversary of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland comes this richly illustrated and expanded collector’s edition of Martin Gardner’s The Annotated Alice.
One summer afternoon in 1862, the Rev. Charles Lutwidge Dodgson took a rowboat out on the Thames. With him were three young friends from the Liddell family―the sisters Lorina, Edith, and Alice. Dodgson often spun fairy tales on these boating trips to pass the time, and on this particular afternoon the story was particularly well received by Alice, who afterwards entreated him to write it down for her. Dodgson recalled the pivotal moment thusly: "In a desperate attempt to strike out some new line of fairy-lore, I had sent my heroine straight down a rabbit-hole, to begin with, without the least idea what was to happen afterwards."
The tale, initially titled Alice's Adventures Under Ground, became Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, which Dodgson published in 1865 as Lewis Carroll. So began the journey, now in its 150th year, of one of the most beloved stories of all time.
The Annotated Alice: 150th Anniversary Deluxe Edition compiles over half a century of scholarship by leading Carrollian experts to reveal the history and full depth of the Alice books and their enigmatic creator. This volume brings together Martin Gardner’s legendary original 1960 publication, The Annotated Alice; his follow-ups, More Annotated Alice and the Definitive Edition; his continuing explication through the Knight Letter magazine; and masterly additions and updates edited by Mark Burstein, president emeritus of the Lewis Carroll Society of North America. In these pages Lewis Carroll's mathematical riddles and curious wordplay, ingeniously embedded throughout the Alice works, are delightfully decoded and presented in the margins, along with original correspondence, amusing anecdotal detours, and fanciful illustrations by Salvador Dalí, Beatrix Potter, Ralph Steadman, and a host of other famous artists.
Put simply, this anniversary edition of The Annotated Alice is the most comprehensive collection of Alice materials ever published in a single volume. May it serve as a beautiful and enduring tribute to the charming, utterly original "new line of fairy-lore" that Lewis Carroll first spun 150 years ago.
The deluxe anniversary edition of The Annotated Alice includes:
A rare, never-before-published portrait of Francis Jane Lutwidge, Lewis Carroll's mother
Over 100 new or updated annotations, collected since the publication of Martin Gardner's Definitive Edition of The Annotated Alice in 1999
More than 100 new illustrations, in vibrant color, by Salvador Dalí, Beatrix Potter, Ralph Steadman, and 42 other artists and illustrators, in addition to the original artwork by Sir John Tenniel
A preface by Mark Burstein, president emeritus of the Lewis Carroll Society of North America, and all of Gardner's introductions to other editions
A filmography of every Alice-related film by Carroll scholar David Schaefer
225 color and black-and-white illustrations

Lewis Carroll is a pseudonym of the Rev. Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, who was born on January 27, 1832, and died on January 14, 1898. His most famous works are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland; its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There; and The Hunting of the Snark.
Martin Gardner (1914-2010) is regarded as one of the world's leading experts on Lewis Carroll and his work. The author of more than a hundred books, he wrote the "Mathematical Games" column for Scientific American for twenty-five years and has been hailed by Douglas Hofstadter as "one of the great intellects produced in this country in this century."
The many works of Sir John Tenniel (1820-1914) include many humorous and political cartoons for Punch and other periodicals of the time, but he is best known for his illustrations of the original editions of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Class.
