Features: People did not expect Charles Lutwidge Dodgson to write such an absurd article. From 1854 to 1881, he was a renowned and respected mathematics professor at the University of Oxford. Mathematics is the science of numbers, a world of logic. In logic, you can only carefully reason from one certain fact to another certain fact. In the mathematics of logic, there is absolutely no absurdity. Perhaps for this reason, when this highly respected mathematician wrote an absurd book in 1865, a book that stands above logic, he did not sign his real name. As the author of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Dodgson called himself Lewis Carroll. The absurd plot in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is not entirely nonsense. We find it incredible, but it does not seem completely unreasonable. It is the logic of dreams, not the logic of reality, but it is still a form of logic. That is also one of the reasons why some adults enjoy this book. Alice is sometimes also confused by this logic.
