The White Knight is a fictional character in Lewis Carroll's book ''Through the Looking-Glass''. He represents the chess piece of the same name. As imagined in John Tenniel's illustrations for the ''Alice'' stories he has echoes of John Millais's ''Sir Isumbras at the Ford''.〔Tom Lubbock, Great Works, ''The Independent'', 17 April 2009〕 == Storyline == The White Knight saves Alice from his opponent, the Red Knight. He repeatedly falls off his horse and lands on his head, and tells Alice of his inventions, which consists of things such as a pudding with ingredients like blotting paper, an upside down container, and anklets to guard his horse against shark bites. He recites a poem of his own composition, 'A-Sitting on a Gate', (but the song's ''name'' is called 'Haddocks' Eyes') and he and Alice depart. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「White Knight (Through the Looking-Glass)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
