Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (pronounced /ˈdɒdsən/) (27 January 1832 – 14 January 1898), better known by the pen name Lewis Carroll (/ˈkærəl/), was an English author, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon and photographer. His most famous writings are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass as well as the poems "The Hunting of the Snark" and "Jabberwocky", all examples of the genre of literary nonsense. He is noted for his facility at word play, logic, and fantasy, and there are societies dedicated to the enjoyment and promotion of his works and the investigation of his life in many parts of the world including United States, Japan, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand.

GNU Free Documentation License What exactly was so weird about Lewis Carroll? Q. Marilyn Manson's upcoming film "Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll" is, mainly telling the story of the "disturbing" life Lewis Carroll led. Which leaves me to wonder, what is so strange about his life? Apprently he stammered a bit, but otherwise it is claimed he was fairly outgoing, and had resonable social skills. It has been suggested that he was a paedophile, but this has never been proving or had any substantial evidence. Admitedly, he was an eccentric character, but I don't get quite what is "dusturbing" about his life? Asked by Aussie Joe - Fri Mar 21 19:24:38 2008 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. Actually, there is nothing 'weird about Lewis Carroll' (we should say Charles Dodgson of course'. What is weird is the mythology that has been created around him. It is particularly 'weird' that despite all the very well documented refutals of this idea that Carroll is some sort of reclusive, arch conservative quasi paedophile (none of which is actually true!) the myth persists. None of this is Carroll's fault! The blame lies primarilly with Carroll's first biographer (Collingwood) who created this totally false idea that Caroll was besotted with young girls and that once they reached puberty he dropped his aquaintanceship with them. This is completely untrue. The best sources for refutation of this are Hughes Lebailly (A French… [cont.] Answered by J T - Mon Mar 24 20:45:22 2008 Can anyone point me in the direction of a positive review of the works of Lewis Carroll?

Q. I have been looking for a hour and im tired someone tell me. Asked by punkguy1084 - Sat Feb 21 22:51:32 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Not! Not! Wiki, under "External Links" is where I've spent over an hour searching for these diaries for you. There are many links to explore. Follow above link (the Wiki one) and use your 'end' key to reach "External Links," so you don't scroll through all there... I first read a lengthy (and very good) essay (called "Who Mutilated Lewis Carroll's Diaries?") about the diaries, at the link called "Contrariwise..." (8th one down under "External Links" found when you follow the link above). I looked at the UK link too, it seems so appropriate, and it is, but they want to sell what they have.
