Copyright 1832-1898 Lewis Carroll Alices Adventures in Wonderland
One of the most famous Victorian authors and books is Alice's Adventures in Wonderland Lewis Carroll. I thought it would be interesting to write about his life's work.
Charles Lutwidge Dodgson was born on January 27, 1832 and is best known for the pseudonym of Lewis Carroll was an English author, mathematician, of course, an Anglican deacon and photographer. His most famous writings are Alice in the Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking Glass.
According to anecdotes, Dodgson was very shy and even hid his hands continually within a pair of gray gloves and black. In 1867 he traveled with his friend and colleague Henry Parry Liddon to Russia, visiting churches, museums and other attractions. After this trip, never again left Britain. Dodgson died on January 14, 1898. He was buried in the cemetery of Guilford.
In spite of his stutter, Dodgson spoke ease with children, who often photographed with their clothes on first. Since July 1866, Dodgson began taking pictures of naked, always with permission parent. During the next thirteen years, Dodgson took many nude studies, but before dying, he destroyed most of the negatives and prints. Dodgson was careful not to show anyone, stating in a letter that "there is really no friend to whom I would give the pictures so completely defy the rules conventional. "
Dodgson had seven sisters. Despite his attraction to girls was known, remained in his company's strict standards Victorian behavior and morality, even if their feelings are more intense than is recognized in their journals. He also had friendships with mature women, but remains a singles. This aspect of his life has remained little examined.
During a field day – July 4, 1862, on a hot summer afternoon – Dodgson began to tell a long history of Alice Liddell (d. 1934), their ideal child friend, who was the daughter of Henry George Liddell, the head of Oxford University. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was born from these tales. Friendship with the Liddell family ended abruptly in June 1863, two years before Wonderland was published, and Dodgson turned his attention to other young friends.
According to some gossips of Oxford, Dodgson had proposed marriage to Alice, eleven, for women the legal age for marriage was twelve. However, the cause of the break between Dodgson and the Liddell is a mystery. Dodgson's relationship with family remained formal, but in 1870 Mrs. Liddell Brough, Alice and her sister Ina study of Dodgson to be photographed. When Alice married Reginald Gervis Hargreaves in 1870, He gave the couple a watercolor by Tom Quad, one of the quadrangles of Christ Church, Oxford. Alice was absent from his funeral, no Liddell appeared.
Originally, the book appeared under the title Alice's Adventures Underground. The story focuses on the seven-year-old Alice, who falls asleep in a meadow, and dreams sinking into a rabbit hole, where the first too big and then too small. She meets such strange characters as Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, and the King and Queen of Hearts, and the wonderful experiences, often bizarre adventures, trying to reason in many discussions do not follow the usual paths of logic. Finally, totally rejected the world of sleep and waking.
The sequel Through the Looking Class, appeared in 1871. It is perhaps most often cited as the first, with the poems Jabberwocky and The Walrus and the Carpenter. The artist John Tenniel refused to illustrate a chapter of Through the Looking Class because he thought it was ridiculous. The chapter was later published in 1872 as wasp in a wig. Dodgson himself always wanted to be an artist and as a child who is all handwritten journals, which made his brothers and sisters. original drawings Dodgson's Alice's Adventures Underground were published in 1961.
He was also known for his poems "The Hunting of the Snark and" Jabberwocky " all examples of the genre of literary sense. He is known for its ease of play on words, logic and fantasy, and there are societies dedicated to the enjoyment and promotion of their research works and life in many parts of the world, including the United Kingdom, Japan, USA and New Zealand.

In the remaining twenty years of his life, through its growing wealth and fame, his existence remained little changed. She continued teaching at Christ Church until 1881, and remained in residence there until his death. His last novel, the two volumes of Sylvie and Bruno, was published in 1889 and 1893, respectively. Successfully reached anywhere near Alice books. Its complexity apparently was not appreciated by contemporary readers. The guest reviews and sales, only 13,000 copies, have been disappointing. [
The only time (so far as is known) went abroad was a trip to Russia in 1867, which relates in his "Russian Journal" which was released commercially for the first time in 1935.

The Chinese call "The Island of Heroes" Britain, which I think sums up what we British question. The British are curious and competitive and are always looking at the horizon of the next adventure and discovery.
