Sažetak
In this paper I set out to provide a close reading of Carroll’s “The Mouse’s Tale” with special focus on parts of the Greek mythologicodramatic tradition. I argue that Carroll’s poem about a trial involving Fury and a Mouse can be traced to two ancient counterparts who partook in the most famous trial in the Greek mythological tradition: the Furies and Apollo.
