It is one of Carroll's remarkable gifts that he is able to take material that is diametrically in opposition to fantasy, genetically alien material, and give it a home in his fantasies. Instead of joining in the fray between the champions of antagonistic genres, Carroll absorbs or turns such material back on itself through parody, allowing the Alice books to transform the many attacks on imagination still current in the middle of the nineteenth century into fantasy. •4" "The World Turned Upside Down " When Lewis Carroll dropped Alice down the rabbit-hole, he sent her into a Wonderland shaped primarily through his use of the topos of the world upside down and its special antipodean geographical figuration, the principal example of radical inversion of perspective in Western literature.
These comic motifs, developed 38 The Making of the Alice Books in burlesque, lampoon, and parody, were most frequently worked out in satire. If a writer wanted to support either side of an argument, such as the youth versus age debate (an argument central in Wonderland), he or she would undercut the opposite view by associating it with the world upside down. Curtius gives an example from Carmina Burana that begins as an attack on youth's premature claim to wisdom: Once it was good to understand, But play has now the upper hand.
6 The topos of the world turned upside down was also established in visual art. Curtius briefly mentions Breughel's Dutch Proverbs as his sole example, but does not elaborate on how the topos is developed (97). This painting gathers a number of related impossibilities to create an overwhelming sense of general inversion. 7 The key to the general satire in the painting is the globe turned upside down in the far left centre, the detail that gave the painting its earlier title, The World Turned Upside Down.
