A South African Edition
by Carroll, Lewis / Bird, Megan
Megan Bird has re-imagined this wonderful children's tale by Lewis Carroll to be a modern twist of maddened adventure. Alice's Adventure in Wonderland is about a curious little girl called Alice, whose curiousity leads her to fall down a rabbit hole and into a marvelously troublesome world. What follows is a series of colourful, excited, mad, and sometimes unfortunate, events... where Alice must decide of just what mind she's made up of, and how to get home.

March 2013Alice in Sussex
Frei nach Lewis Carroll und H.C. Artmann
by Nicolas Mahler, Andreas Platthaus, Nicolas Mahler, Lewis Carroll
Alice findet sich im Traumland wieder. Dort trifft sie auf das weiße Kaninchen, das Alice in seinen unterirdischen Bau führt, um dort nach einer illustrierten Ausgabe von H.C. Artmanns »Frankenstein in Sussex« zu suchen. Im Laufe der Handlung trifft Alice wiederholt auf das Kaninchen, das auch aus anderen literarischen Werken zitiert, sei es von Herman Melville oder E.M. Cioran. Anders als bei Carroll befindet sich diese Alice nicht im Wunderland, sondern in einem tiefen Haus unter der Erde. Dort begegnet sie in verschiedenen Stockwerken den bekannten Schöpfungen Lewis Carrolls: der pfeiferauchenden Raupe, der grinsenden Katze, der Suppenschildkröte und anderen mehr. Wiederholt werden von diesen Kreaturen die Schrecknisse der Kindheit und Jugend angesprochen. Als Alice, im Erdgeschoss des Hauses angekommen, Frankensteins Monster begegnet, erwacht sie aus ihrem schrecklichen Traum.

Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2024How to be multiple
The philosophy of twins
by Helena de Bres, Julia de Bres
In How to be multiple, Helena de Bres - a twin herself - argues that twinhood is a unique lens for examining our place in the world and how we relate to other people. The way we think about twins offers remarkable insights into some of the deepest questions of our existence, from what is a person? to how should we treat one another? Deftly weaving together literary and cultural history, philosophical enquiry and personal experience, de Bres examines such thorny issues as binary thinking, objectification, romantic love and friendship, revealing the limits of our individualistic perspectives. In this illuminating, entertaining book, wittily illustrated by her twin sister, de Bres ultimately suggests that to consider twinhood is to imagine the possibility of a more interconnected, capacious human future.

by Susan L Slocum, Peter Wiltshier, John Basil Read IV, Dorothee Bohn, Andrea Zita Botelho, Kelly S. Bricker, Robert S. Bristow, Karina H. Casimiro, Rosa Suárez Chaparro, Ana Cristina Costa, Kynda R. Curtis, Margaret J. Daniels, Edieser Dela Santa, C. Michael Hall, Manuel Ramón Gonzalez Herrera, Russell M. Hicks, Julie Judkins, N. Qwynne Lackey, Natalya Lawrence, Gustavo C. X. M. P.

Sleipness, Maria Anunciação Ventura, Therez B. Walker
Gateway communities that neighbour parks and protected areas are impacted by tourism, while facing unique circumstances related to protected area management. Economic dependency remains a serious challenge for these communities, especially in a climate of neoliberalism, top-down policy environments, and park closures related to environmental degradation or government budgets. The collection of works in this edited book provide bottom-up, informed, and nuanced approaches to tourism management using local experiences from gateway communities and protected areas management emerging from a decade of guidelines, rulemaking, and exclusive decision-making. Global perspectives are presented and contextualized at the local level of gateway communities in an attempt to balance nature, community, and commerce, while supporting the triple bottom line of sustainable tourism. While anticipating a post-COVID 19 global shift, readers are encouraged to think through transformation and resiliency in regard to how the flux of supply vs demand alters gateway community perspectives on tourism. Specific features of this book include: · Focus on transformations, which provides insight into the complex and dynamic nature of gateway communities. · Multidisciplinary, multi-cultural insights into protected area management. · Applied and conceptual chapters from global perspectives.

September 1999Alice im Wunderland. Alice hinter den Spiegeln
Aus dem Englischen von Christian Enzensberger. Mit Illustrationen von John Tenniel
by Lewis Carroll, John Tenniel, Christian Enzensberger
Lewis Carroll wurde als Charles Lutwidge Dodgson am 27. Januar 1832 in Daresbury, England als drittes von elf Kindern und ältester Sohn des Pfarrers Charles Dodgson geboren. Carroll stellte schon als Kind sein mathematisches Interesse unter Beweis, war sehr belesen und verfasste für sich und seine Geschwister kleine Theaterstücke, um so der engen Welt des Pfarrhauses zu entfliehen. Nach unglücklichen Jahren in einer Privatschule begann er 1850 sein Studium in Oxford am College Christ Church und lehrte dort im Anschluss als Tutor Mathematik. Er entdeckte bald seine Leidenschaft für die Fotografie, später widmete er sich zunehmend auch dem Schreiben, das stark von seiner Liebe zur Logik und Mathematik geprägt war. Er fand insbesondere am Entwerfen von fantasievollen Denkaufgaben und Wortspielen großen Gefallen. An der Universität von Oxford lernte er das Mädchen Alice Liddell kennen, die Tochter des Dekans von Christ Church. Sie gilt als Vorlage und Inspirationsquelle für sein 1865 entstandenes, berühmtestes Werk Alice im Wunderland. Der Roman wurde in mehr als 80 Sprachen übersetzt. Er starb am 14. Januar 1898 in Guildford. Christian Enzensberger, geboren 1931 in Nürnberg und verstorben 2009 in München, war Professor für Englische Literaturgeschichte an der Universität München. Er übersetzte zahlreiche Werke aus dem Englischen ins Deutsche.
