27 January - Lewis Carroll birth anniversary

 


Lewis Carroll was the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, an English writer, mathematician, and photographer. He was born on 27 January 1832 in Daresbury, Cheshire, England, and died on 14 January 1898, in Guildford, Surrey, England.

Lewis Carroll is best known for his works of children's literature, particularly "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and its sequel, "Through the Looking-Glass." These whimsical and imaginative stories, filled with wordplay and surreal situations, have become classics of the genre and have been adapted into numerous films, plays, and other forms of media.

In addition to his literary pursuits, Carroll was a mathematician and logician, holding a lectureship in mathematics at Christ Church, Oxford. He made contributions to the field of symbolic logic and wrote several mathematical books.

Lewis Carroll's legacy continues to endure through his literary works, which continue to captivate readers of all ages.
