What the Tortoise Said to Achilles
A Tangled Tale is a collection of ten brief humorous stories by Lewis   Carroll, published serially between April 1880 and March 1885.The stories, or   Knots as Carroll calls them, present mathematical problems. In a later issue,   Carroll gives the solution to a Knot and discusses readers' answers. The   mathematical interpretations of the Knots are not always straightforward. The   ribbing of readers answering wrongly - giving their names - was not always   well received.
Short story "Bruno's Revenge" was originally published in 1867.   Some years later, in 1873 or 1874, Carroll had the idea to use this piece as   the core for a longer story. Much of the rest of the novel he compiled from   notes of ideas and dialogue which he had collected over the years.
What the Tortoise Said to Achilles, written by Lewis Carroll in 1895 for   the philosophical journal Mind, is a brief dialogue which problematises the foundations   of logic. The title alludes to one of Zeno's paradoxes of motion, in which   Achilles could never overtake the tortoise in a race. In Carroll's dialogue,   the tortoise challenges Achilles to use the force of logic to make him accept   the conclusion of a simple deductive argument. Ultimately, Achilles fails,   because the clever tortoise leads him into an infinite regression.
Charles Lutwidge Dodgson better known by the pseudonym Lewis Carroll (1832   - 1898), was an English author, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon and   photographer.

Not illustrated. 1869 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER VII. A MAD TEA-PARTY. There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it: a Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head. "Very uncomfortable for the Dormouse," thought Alice; "only, as it's asleep, I suppose it doesn't mind." The table was a large one, but the three were all crowded together at one corner of it: "No room! No room!" they cried out when they saw Alice coming. "There's plenty of room!" said Alice indignantly, and she sat down in a large arm-chair at one end of the table. "Have some wine," the March Hare said in an encouraging tone. Alice looked all round the table, but there was nothing on it but tea. "I don't see any wine," she remarked. "There isn't any," said the March Hare. M Then it wasn't very eivil of you to offer it," said Alice angrily. "It wasn't very civil of you to sit down without being invited," said the March Hare. "I didn't know it was your table," said Alice; "it's laid for a great many more than three." "Your hair wants cutting," said the Hatter. He had been looking at Alice for some time with great curiosity, and this was his first speech. "You should learn not to make personal remarks," Alice said with some severity: "it's very rude." The Hatter opened his eyes very wide on heaving this; but all he said was, "Why is a raven like a writing-desk?" "Come, we shall have some fun now!" thought Alice. "I'm glad they've begun asking riddles -- I believe I can guess that," she added aloud. "Do you mean that you think you can find out the answer to it?" said the March Hare. "Exactly so," said Alice. "Then you should say what you mean, ..".

Les aventures d'Alice au pays des merveilles

Vous êtes féru de nonsense britannique ? Vous ne détestez pas les illogismes ? C'est aujourd'hui le jour de votre non-anniversaire ? Alors ce beau livre est fait pour vous ! Ce livre est plus qu'un livre. C'est aussi un jeu ! Il est fourni avec des éléments à découper dans le rabat. Lewis Carroll, l'auteur d'"Alice au pays des Merveilles", était aussi un logisticien de haute volée. Et quand on pousse la logique dans ses derniers retranchements, on arrive à des illogismes grandioses. C'est ce que nous invite à faire ce jeu un peu fou, comme "Le lion, dont n'importe qui peut dire qu'il l'a traqué autant que moi, est un animal très sauvage ; et certains individus parmi les lions ne boivent pas de café, bien que je ne garantirai pas que cette loi s'applique à tous les lions. " Un exemple parmi tant d'autres ! En expliquant son jeu, l'auteur rappelle les règles de base de la logique en utilisant des animaux et des situations cocasses. Un livre unique en son genre et très distrayant, traduit par François Montmirel, un spécialiste passionné. Inédit en français sous sa forme intégrale.
