Comparing Edgar Allan Poe and Tim Burton writing style?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Both Edgar Allan Poe and Tim Burton are known for their dark, gothic themes and settings in their works. Poe's writing is characterized by his use of macabre imagery, psychological complexities, and introspective narratives, while Burton's works often feature eccentric characters, fantastical worlds, and a blend of whimsical and eerie elements. Both creators have a unique way of blending the beauty and darkness of the human experience in their writing.

What is the animal Alice is riding in Alice in Wonderland?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In the book, the White Rabbit is the first Wonderland animal that Alice sees, however she doesn't see him in Wonderland, but in the real world. She follows him into Wonderland, and just catches a glimpse of him as he hurries down a corridor, so he is also the first animal she sees in Wonderland.

The first animal she actually meets is the Mouse, who has fallen into the pool of tears along with Alice.

As to whether the animals are particularly strange is perhaps a matter of opinion. It is certainly strange for animals to have human characteristics, such as speech and clothing (and pocket watches), but the majority of animals Alice encounters are relatively normal - cats, dogs, birds etc.

After meeting the mouse, she meets a dodo, which could be described as strange as dodos are extinct. Towards the end of the book she meets a mythical animal, in the form of the Gryphon, and a fictional animal, created by Lewis Carroll, the Mock Turtle. They are definitely strange.

Is Tim Burton crazy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Tim Burton is not on drugs. That's just the way he works.

Tim Burton is inspired by the abnormal and unusual. Anything out of the ordinary sparks his interest. Tim Burton is a strange person who makes even stranger films, but they are rather exceptional and so is Burton. aside from Speilberg, he's the greatest, most creative and innovative director in history. As for his hair, I cant say anything about that.

Why was the caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland named Absolem?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

He was named after gods third son who rebelled against his father. He was also known to be the most handsome of all his siblings. He was killed by his cousin after fleeing his father and trying Judaism (sp).

My theory is he is as wise as his father, and had ideals of life and creation of his own. Both the caterpillar and biblical character. He was reborn as a beautiful butterfly in the end. Parallel to dying and becoming reincarnated. My hypothis is Absalom is a biblical representation in a wonderful Novel. There

To guide Alice, like god guides most man kind on our journeys. Maybe Absalom believed in ideas that were more profound and philosophical than his father or cousins could grasp. More of the eastern ways maybe.. Buddhism, again just my theory.
