Lewis Carroll was the pseudonym of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832–1898), an English author, mathematician, and photographer. He is best known for his literary classics “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” (1865) and its sequel “Through the Looking-Glass” (1871). Carroll’s whimsical tales, filled with wordplay, absurdity, and imaginative worlds, have enchanted readers of all ages for generations. Apart from his literary endeavours, Carroll was a mathematics lecturer at Christ Church, Oxford. His contributions to logic and mathematics include works on symbolic logic and recreational mathematics. Carroll’s fascination with language and logic is evident in the clever dialogues and puzzles woven into his stories.
Carroll’s legacy extends beyond literature; his photographs, often featuring young girls, are notable for their artistry. While controversies surround his personal life, Lewis Carroll’s creative and intellectual contributions, particularly through the adventures of Alice, remain influential in both literature and the study of logic.
