Abstract (en)

Analyzes, with reference to Freudian psychology, the animal imagery in the drawn illustrations to the manuscript version of Carroll's Alice's Adventures Under Ground, along with the author's photographs of young girls in erotic settings and poses, and suggests that these may be seen as a form of sexual abuse.
