Résumé

Lewis Carroll's "A Tangled Tale" presents a fascinating interweaving of whimsical narratives that engage both the intellect and imagination. Written in a playful, nonsensical style characteristic of Carroll's oeuvre, the book consists of ten interconnected stories, each followed by a mathematical puzzle. The literary context reflects the Victorian era's burgeoning fascination with logic and language, juxtaposing serious themes with light-hearted humor and absurdity, illustrating how critical thought can lead to unexpected delights.
This intricate tapestry of storytelling challenges readers to think critically while simultaneously delighting in the curves of language and absurd situations. Lewis Carroll, a mathematician and logician as well as a writer, drew upon his background in logic and his love of riddles and paradoxes to craft this unique work. The blend of mathematical concepts with literary creativity showcases Carroll's dual talents and his commitment to engaging with readers through both intellectual rigor and playful fantasy.
His experiences in academia and his relationships with children, especially his fondness for Alice Liddell, likely influenced the creation of his playful narrative style, making abstract concepts accessible. "A Tangled Tale" is recommended for anyone who wishes to explore the interplay between logic and storytelling. It serves as an excellent introduction to Carroll's distinctive literary voice. This book is a delightful choice for readers interested in puzzles, language, and the absurd, offering both entertainment and intellectual challenge.
