Intended Topic

  I would like to write about feminism in Alice.  My research question is "How does Carroll portray feminist views in his novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland."  Some things that I will possibly talk about is a small background on women during the Victorian Era, the lessons/schooling girls had to do, how Alice acts during the novel compared to the Victorian Era,  the reverse roles of the Queen of Hearts and the King of Hearts, etc.

The Alchemist

  One thing that I am noticing is that the boy keeps on learning throughout his journey.  He learns from his mistakes and takes them into consideration in future situations.  Not only his he learning basic "street" skills, he is learning the Language of the World.  I find it very interesting how well he understands the Language of the World.  He seems to know how to interpret that language and in an adult perspective.
