| - The Walrus and The Carpenter are two characters in Disney's 1951 film Alice in Wonderland, originally created for Lewis Carroll's book Through the Looking Glass. They are two jobless travelers whose story was told to Alice by Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum.
- "The Walrus and the Carpenter" is a narrative poem by Lewis Carroll that appeared in his book Through the Looking-Glass, published in December 1871. The poem is recited in chapter four, by Tweedledum and Tweedledee to Alice. The poem is composed of 18 stanzas and contains 108 lines, in an alternation of iambic trimeters and iambic tetrameters. The rhyme scheme is ABCBDB, and masculine rhymes appear frequently. The rhyming and rhythmical scheme used, as well as some archaisms and syntactical turns, are those of the traditional English ballad.
- The poem describes how the Walrus and the Carpenter feast on a vast quantity of oysters, after having persuaded the oysters to accompany them on a walk. Many interpretations have been put forward as to the symbolism of the poem. The fact that one of the characters is a carpenter is often taken to be a Biblical reference. However, Lewis Carroll himself was indifferent as to whether the walrus was accompanied by a carpenter, a butterfly or a baronet, telling the illustrator John Tenniel that he could draw whichever of those three he chose since the meter of the poem would remain the same.
