Alice's adventures in Wonderland Lewis Carroll

The story Alice in Wonderland can be read as a model contrary to the rigid conventions of Victorian society. The book describes a world in which a girl must open her way through life alone, far from educational norms. With the help of little Alice's magical experiences, Carroll refutes the idea of his time, that the world of adults, with its (sometimes questionable) moral principles, was the model to which the world of children had to adapt. Alice's dream world is not ideal, nor is it without danger. However, the young heroine manages to overcome all the challenges thanks to her impartiality and her ability to judge things from a childish perspective, but without prejudice. Thus, Carroll presents the child as a full-fledged member of society and as an independent being. With her direct and carefree style, Alicia mercilessly discovers adult selfishness, fear and violence. Carroll's social criticism hides in a fantastic and absurd world to go out in search of those who think the same way, and Alice in Wonderland continues to guarantee a wide reading public in all cultural sectors, it is something much more than a mere book for young children: Alice in Wonderland makes you wonder about social conventions and the reality of our world as we know it. in short, it is, in short, a song to maintain children's curiosity and imagination, that society pressures us to lose.
