- Through the Looking Glass
- Exploration
- Alice explores a new place- however not exploring a real place- safer to imagine a place away from real-life
- Identity
- Alice is exploring who she is as a person- a young child growing up
- The Red Queen- rude and cunning. The White Queen- good natured. Identity is dependent on how you act as a person
- Language and Communication
- The writing in the new world is backwards, the way the Jabberwocky is written means that Alice has to take on a new reading style- for the reflective nature of the created world.
- Youth
- The whole story is based on a young girl who is naive to the real world problems going on around her
- Alice sees the good and innocence in people
- Education
- Alice is learning what is right and wrong. Also about how not everyone can be trusted
- Each character is reflective of the issues that can faced in adult life
- Childhood
- Alice lives an isolated childhood, she is left on her own with the cats hence why she dreams up a world where she is surrounded by different poeple- yurning to escape from the company of herself
- Surrealism
- The world she is in isn't real- there are things that happen that shouldn't be there
- Dreams
- Linking to the idea that Alice dreams up this imaginery place in order to escape reality and isolation
- Chess Game
- All the individual peices get played in order to advance further, they all have an individual goal- relating to challenges and goals in life that Alice is yet to experience
- The 'Monarch' positions deem themselves higher than other hcaracters- even higher than Alice because they are the highest in society and everyone else is made to serve them- link to the Chess Game
