Lewis carroll, whose original name was Charles Lutevich Dodgson, graduated from Oxford University and published several mathematical works on determinant and parallelism principle. During this period, there were many essays and doggerel poems, among which the famous collection of poems was Snake Shark Hunting (1876), and the new word "Snake Shark" was included in the English dictionary.
Fairy tales Alice in Wonderland (1865) and Alice's Adventures in the Mirror (187 1) are his representative works, which depict the world full of childlike interest through illusory and absurd plots, and also mock the world of British society in the late19th century.
Artistic Features of Alice in Wonderland
Carol's fairy tales generally do not describe punishing evil and promoting good, but reveal to readers the complexity and diversity of world things and the relativity of various concepts.
For example, if Alice eats the same piece of mushroom, its right side will become shorter and its left side will become higher. That's how things change. In the rabbit hole, Alice couldn't reach the key on the table when she was a child, but suddenly she grew taller. The spacious house couldn't hold her body, so she had to put one arm out of the window and one foot into the chimney. It can be seen that big and small are relative concepts, and it is meaningful to compare them.
For example, the cat told Alice that dogs would growl and wag their tails when they lost their temper, while cats would growl and wag their tails because they were happy. This same action, however, can show the completely opposite connotation, how to judge right and wrong in it. This kind of "interest" can be seen everywhere in Alice in Wonderland.
