It is the basic crux of Christianity: Man is born a sinner. Throughout history‚ the nature of sin has seen many different faces and has changed to fit many different social expectations. As Bartleby the angel laments in the movie Dogma‚ “I remember when eating meat on Friday was supposed to be a Hell-worthy trespass.” His friend Loki counters with the observation that‚ “The major sins never change.” Although the list of the Seven Deadly Sins is never mentioned in the Bible‚ the concept has existed

Hatta is both very similar and very different to the Hatter just as Alice is very different from her Wonderland self. Everything in Wonderland is composed of pieces of Alice’s personality‚ “the dream that nearly obliterates her is composed of fragments of her own personality” (Auerbach 318).

In an arm-chair‚ with an elbow resting on the table and her head leaning on that hand‚ sat the strangest lady I have ever seen‚ or shall ever see. She was dressed in rich materials‚—satins‚ and lace‚ and silks‚—all of white. Her shoes were white. And she had a long white veil dependent from her hair‚ and she had bridal flowers in her hair‚ but her hair was white.

Hannah A. Mercado IV Narra Literature Alice in Wonderland is a renown classic written by Lewis Carroll from 1865. While on a boat party‚ Lewis told tales to three children for entertainment. One of the children‚ Alice‚ was enamored by the story and requested that he write it down. This is what inspired the story. It is whimsical and caters to children’s delight and to some readers it is confusing at most. To better understand the tale‚ we will breakdown Alice’s character as an archetypal hero.
