Macmillan finally published the revised first edition, printed by Richard Clay, in November 1865.[2][74] Carroll requested a red binding, deeming it appealing to young readers.[75][76] A new edition, released in December 1865 for the Christmas market but carrying an 1866 date, was quickly printed.[77][78] The text blocks of the original edition were removed from the binding and sold with Carroll's permission to the New York publishing house of D. Appleton & Company.[79] The binding for the Appleton Alice was identical to the 1866 Macmillan Alice, except for the publisher's name at the foot of the spine. The title page of the Appleton Alice was an insert cancelling the original Macmillan title page of 1865 and bearing the New York publisher's imprint and the date 1866.[2]

The first major "evolution" of Wonderland was its first transformation of medium: from manuscript to print. This transformation required Carroll to make many edits to the language and to add whole scenes and chapters. Even the title was transformed from Alice's Adventures Underground to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. This was perhaps the last evolution of Wonderland that Carroll had any control over, and it's a pretty important step for understanding Alice's journey over time. One of the nice things about the internet as a medium, is that it is pretty easy to display text comparisons. For example, printing in two colors is expensive and difficult, but publishing a web page in two colors is incredibly simple. Below I've experimented with a couple ways of displaying the major changes between Underground and Wonderland to help illustrate both how the text "evolved" and how the internet can be advantageous as a medium for studying literature.

I think that the paramount question in this investigation is why people continue to be so interested in Alice. This question addresses the text's endurance over the last one hundred and thirty-two years and the consequential rise of Alice as a symbol in popular culture. In part, Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland has become an icon of popular culture because of its folkloric content. More specifically, the story provides a plethora of examples of children's speech play drawn directly from the child language model. The presence of such children's lore accounts for the text's persistence because this use of language creates a sense of familiarity with its readers. My inspiration or "spark" for this paper emerges from my housemates' obsession with Alice.

Curious Alice's second story takes her through the looking-glass to a place even stranger than the Wonderland of her first adventure. At every step she is hindered by unusual, funny and nonsense characters who crop up, such as Tweedledee and Tweedledum, and Humpty Dumpty. Some of them insist on reciting poems to her and these poems, such as The Walrus and The Carpenter and Jabberwocky, are now as famous as the Alice stories themselves. This edition presents Lewis Carroll's complete text, with illustrations from Costa Award- and Kate Greenaway Medal-winner Chris Riddell. 17dc91bb1f
