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 Carroll’s delightful verses such as The Walrus and the Carpenter and the inspired jargon of that masterly Wordsworthian parody, The Jabberwocky.С вступлением и примечаниями Майкла Ирвина, профессора английской литературы Кентского университета в Кентербери.Траляля и Труляляпка, Безумный шляпник, Чеширский кот, Красная королева и Белый Кролик — все они появляются и теперь являются знакомыми фигурами в письменной форме, разговорной речи и идиомах. То же самое относится и к восхитительным стихам Кэрролла, таким как «Морж» и «Плотник», и к вдохновенному жаргону этой виртуозной пародии Вордсворта «Бармаглот».Книга на английском языке.

Аннотация к книге «Peter Pan» Barrie J. M.:Peter Pan by Sir James Matthew Barrie. The magical Peter Pan comes to the night nursery of the Darling children, Wendy, John and Michael. He teaches them to fly, then takes them through the sky to Never-Never Land, where they find Red Indians, Wolves, Mermaids and… Pirates. The leader of the pirates is the sinister Captain Hook. His hand was bitten off by a crocodile, who, as Captain Hook explains ‘liked me arm so much that he has followed me ever since, licking his lips for the rest of me’. After lots of adventures, the story reaches its exciting climax as Peter, Wendy and the children do battle with Captain Hook and his band.
