Autorenporträt
Lewis Carroll, born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson on January 27, 1832, was an English writer famed for his creation of the fantasy world in 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' and its sequel 'Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There' (1871). Carroll's literary genre is often deemed as literary nonsense, a genre which creates meaning from the ostensibly nonsensical, a talent that Carroll mastered. His work in 'Through the Looking-Glass' continues the adventures of Alice, showcasing his unique ability to weave together the logical with the illogical. A mathematician and logician by profession, Carroll's written work reflects his dexterity with word play, logic, and fantasy. His contributions extended beyond children's literature, including 'The Hunting of the Snark' (1876), a whimsical nonsense poem, and 'Sylvie and Bruno' (1889), a two-part novel. Carroll's inventive use of the English language, his imaginative narratives, and the thematic depth of his works have made a perpetual impact on literature, influencing a wide range of genres and generations of writers. Scholarship surrounding his works often delves into Carroll's intricate weaving of satire, poetry, and philosophical musings, solidifying his legacy as a pioneer in the literary world, curiously intertwining reality with the fantastical, much like Alice's journey through the looking glass itself.
