Lewis Carroll

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

An Edition Printed in the Nyctographic Square Alphabet Devised by Lewis Carroll

Buch

Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, a.k.a Lewis Carroll, invented a special writing instrument he called the Nyctograph on 24 September 1891, in frustration at the process of getting out of bed at 2 a.m. in a winter night, lighting a candle, and recording some happy thought which would probably be otherwise forgotten. This edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is written entirely in the author's unique night-time alphabet.

Über den Autor


Charles Lutwidge Dodgson ; 27 January 1832 - 14 January 1898), better known by his pen name Lewis Carroll, was an English writer of children's fiction, notably Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass. He was noted for his facility at word play, logic, and fantasy. The poems Jabberwocky and The Hunting of the Snark are classified in the genre of literary nonsense. He was also a mathematician, photographer, and Anglican deacon.Carroll came from a family of high-church Anglicans, and developed a long relationship with Christ Church, Oxford, where he lived for most of his life as a scholar and teacher. Alice Liddell, daughter of the Dean of Christ Church, Henry Liddell, is widely identified as the original for Alice in Wonderland, though Carroll always denied this.Born in All Saints' Vicarage, Daresbury, Cheshire, in 1832, Carroll is commemorated at All Saints' Church, Daresbury, in its stained glass windows depicting characters from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. In 1982, a memorial stone to Carroll was unveiled in Poets' Corner, Westminster Abbey.
