No Description

PRESENTATION OUTLINE

What rule does Alice give for the duchess's change in demeanor? How does her conclusion show that Alice is still trying to use logic in a Wonderland?

Compare the personality of the Duchess in this chapter with her previous attitude in Chapter 6. How is a commentary on Victorian royalty?

The Duchess is constantly creating moral rules, even nonsensical ones. How does this relate to the theme growing up from a child to an adult?

How can the same situation be a commentary on society in Victoria England?

What information about the Queen does the Gryphon share with Alice? Does this affect your opinion of the Queen? Why or why not?

Mock turtle is a pun on mock turtle soup, which consists of veal (hence the calf head on a turtle body). How might this relate to the fact that the mock turtle is so sad?

I can interpret figures of speech, such as verbal irony and puns in the context they are used.
I can identify how they add humor suspense or irony to the story.

The mock turtle himself is s pun. Identify other puns in his story.
Do they add anything to the story? If so, what?
