Alice's Adventures in Wonderland regnes som en av de viktigste barne-b kene i verden, kanskje den aller viktigste. I Norge har fortellingen v rt kjent som enten Else i Eventyrland eller som Alice i Eventyrland. Vi har gode grunner til å anta at det var s strene Augusta og Emma Hagerup (kalt E. A. Hagerup) som f rste gang formidlet Lewis Carroll's fortelling til norsk i B rnenes Blad 1. oktober 1870. Her presenterer vi denne oversettelsen både på norsk og engelsk. Boken inneholder også en bibliografi over norske Alice-oversettelser.

Alice's Adventures in Won-der-land is re-garded as one of the most important chil-dren's books in the world, perhaps the most important one. In Norway, the story has been known as either Else i Eventyr-land or Alice i Eventyr-land. We have reason to believe that it was the sisters Augusta and Emma Hagerup (called E. A. Hagerup) who presented Lewis Carroll's story in Norwegian for the first time, in the magazine called B rnenes Blad ('Chil-dren's Magazine') on 1 October, 1870. This book chronicles this story, and presents the text in Norwegian and English translation, as well as a bibliography of Norwegian Alices.
