Works based on Alice in Wonderland

Lewis Carroll's books Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking-Glass (1871) have been highly popular in their original forms, and have served as the basis for many subsequent works since they were published.

Simple references to the two books are too numerous to list; this list of works based on Alice in Wonderland focuses on works based specifically and substantially on Carroll's two books about the character of Alice.

Carolyn Sigler[1] has shown that Carroll's two great fantasies inspired dozens of imitations, responses, and parodies during the remainder of the nineteenth century and the first part of the twentieth — so many that Carroll at one point began his own collection of Alice imitations.

[2] In 1907, copyright on Alice's Adventures in Wonderland expired in the UK, entering the tale into the public domain.

The primary wave of Alice-inspired works slackened after about 1920, though Carroll's influence on other writers has never fully waned.
