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. They have been adapted directly into other media, their characters and situations have been appropriated into other works, and these elements have been referenced innumerable times as familiar elements of shared culture. 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 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. In 1887, one critic even suggested that Carroll had plagiarized Tom Hood's "From Nowhere to the North Pole" (1875) when writing "Alice" — although Hood's work came out ten years after "Alice" and was one of its many imitations. The primary  wave of "Alice"-inspired works slackened after about 1920, though Carroll's influence on other writers has never fully waned. Film. Not to be confused with actual adaptations of the Alice and Looking-Glass books, these are films which are based on elements of the books. Music. Classical music and opera. Music inspired by, referencing, or incorporating texts from the Alice books include:
