Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known as Lewis Carroll, was an English writer, logician and mathematician. Born in 1832, he is best known for the novels Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, as well as his nonsense poems. The character of Alice was in fact based on a real child, Alice Liddell, daughter of the dean of Christ Church, Oxford, where Carroll taught mathematics. Many of the adventures in Wonderland are thought to be based on a picnic with Alice and her two sisters.
