Articles and Theses

There are many excellent scholarly writings, both in regular book form and in the form of a thesis. The vast majority of these that I have read are actually written in an understandable manner and they cover a multitude of approaches to the Alice books.

Below are short reviews of some of these. I'll note the main points of the thesis but you can always Google the title and read the entire ones for yourself.
