作者简介
Lewis Carroll, the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was a distinguished English writer, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon, and photographer. Born on January 27, 1832, in Daresbury, Cheshire, England, Carroll is best known for his timeless works 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' and its sequel 'Through the Looking-Glass,' which have entranced readers with their whimsical narratives and fantastical characters. Beyond these seminal texts, Carroll's poetic contributions, such as in 'Phantasmagoria and Other Poems' (1869), reveal his adept use of verse and his fascination with themes of the supernatural and the absurd. His literary style is marked by a playful use of language, including non-sense verse and linguistic puzzles, which both children and adults find intellectually engaging and entertaining. Carroll's impact on the genre of children's literature is profound, with his works prompting philosophical and literary scrutiny, thereby cementing his legacy as a pioneer of the literary nonsense genre. Although some have sought deeper biographical or psychological interpretations of his work, Carroll's writings continue to be celebrated for their creativity and wit. Throughout his career, Carroll remained active in the academic realm, lecturing in mathematics at Christ Church, Oxford, and contributing scholarly works in the field of logic. He passed away on January 14, 1898, but his literary contributions endure, influencing a wide array of media and inspiring countless adaptations.
