durée : 00:55:52 - Autant en emporte l'Histoire - par : Stéphanie DUNCAN - Été 1862. Un étrange équipage composé de Charles Dodgson, alias Lewis Carroll, et de trois petites filles part à la rame sur une rivière qui traverse Oxford et la campagne anglaise. Au fil de l'eau Dodgson se met à raconter l'histoire d'une petite fille qui est tombée dans le terrier d'un lapin...
Charles Lutwidge Dodgson was an Oxford mathematician and photographer with a knack for telling stories and entertaining the children of his friends. At the request of Alice Liddell he wrote down the stories he told of her imaginary adventures underground, and the work became famous as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland with Dodgson adopting the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. Come learn the history behind his adventures of Alice, his active hobby of photography, and how changing social norms resulted in a general smearing of his name in the 20th century.
The "Wokests" swarm the next Jefferson-Madison Regional Library and now beging a all=to=familiar tactic of 'running out the clock' (just like they did to the Western Bypass) as the committee now says they need 'expert consult' on the issue of removing the names of Thomas Jefferson & James Madison. If we lose those two watch out for political ideology written by Charles Dodgson, who also wrote a little under the pen name 'Lewis Carroll' (hint, the Queen of Hearts runs a better society that 'Liquid Democracy') Joe and the listeners chew on it all.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Most people are quite familiar with the work of Charles Dodgson, better known as Lewis Carroll, and in particular his fantastical and iconic Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. But perhaps some don’t know that the Alice stories were invented for the amusement of a real little ten-year-old girl named Alice Liddell, who also posed for several … Continue reading Episode 307 LIVE: Lewis Carroll and Alice Liddell

* On Nov. 26, 1862, Oxford mathematician Charles Dodgson sends a handwritten manuscript, “Alice's Adventures Under Ground,” to 10-year-old Alice Liddell. Dodgson made up the story on a picnic, and Alice insisted he write it down. He published it under his nom de plume Lewis Carroll in 1865. * On Nov. 22, 1900, the first car produced under the Mercedes name is taken for its inaugural drive in Cannstatt, Germany. The car was specially built for Emil Jellinek, a fan of fast, flashy cars, who bought 36 of them. In exchange, the car was named after his 11- year-old daughter,...Article Link

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (commonly shortened to Alice in Wonderland) is an 1865 novel by English author Lewis Carroll (the pseudonym of Charles Dodgson). It tells of a young girl named Alice, who falls through a rabbit hole into a subterranean fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. It is considered to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre. The tale plays with logic, giving the story lasting popularity with adults as well as with children. One of the best-known and most popular works of English-language fiction, its narrative, structure, characters and imagery have been enormously influential in popular culture and literature, especially in the fantasy genre. The work has never been out of print and has been translated into at least 97 languages. Its ongoing legacy encompasses many adaptations for stage, screen, radio, art, ballet, theme parks, board games and video games. Carroll published a sequel in 1871, titled Through the Looking-Glass, and a shortened version for young children, The Nursery "Alice", in 1890. Can't sleep?

In 1883, Missouri real estate broker James Reavis announced that he held title to a huge tract of land in the Arizona Territory. If certified, the claim would threaten the livelihoods of thousands of residents. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll tell the story of the Baron of Arizona, one of the most audacious frauds in American history. We'll also scrutinize British statues and puzzle over some curious floor numbers. Intro: In 1891, Charles Dodgson wrote a curiously unforthcoming letter to Nellie Bowman.

O primeiro ThemisCast de 2021, com bancada e roupagem nova. Sendo assim, hoje inauguraremos um novo quadro: "Direito e Literatura" e o tema de hoje será: Alice no pais das maravilhas e o Direito Brasileiro: como a coragem da Alice serve como exemplo para os juristas. A obra Alice nos pais das maravilhas foi escrita por Charles Dodgson pelo pseudônimo de Lewis Carroll, no final da década 19, com grande viés surrealista. A tentativa de fuga da racionalismo e ao materialismo da sociedade ocidental está totalmente p presente na obra de Carroll assim como está no surrealismo Jurídico de Luis Alberto Warat onde sua proposta é de fazer despertar a sensibilidade perdida nos estudantes e seus operadores. Assim, a nossa conversa de hoje será em voltada a entender como o direito brasileiro conversa nos dias atuais com essas visões de mundo.

Escrito en 1865, es un clásico no sólo de la literatura juvenil, sino de la literatura en general. Popularizado por decenas de versiones, la novela fue creada por el reverendo Charles Dodgson, verdadero nombre de Lewis Carroll, quien la escribiera para la niña Alicia Liddell. La historia es un delicioso entramado de situaciones verosímiles y absurdas, metamorfosis insólitas de seres y ambientes, juegos con el lenguaje y con la lógica y asociaciones oníricas que hacen de él un libro inolvidable.

Judo was the first Japanese martial art to gain widespread international recognition, and the first to become an official Olympic sport.Pedagogical innovations attributed to Kanō include the use of black and white belts, and the introduction of dan ranking to show the relative ranking among members of a martial art style.In 1915, Kanō gave this definition to judo:“Judo is the way of the highest or most efficient use of both physical and mental energy. Through training in the attack and defence techniques of judo, the practitioner nurtures their physical and mental strength, and gradually embodies the essence of the Way of Judo. Thus, the ultimate objective of Judo discipline is to be utilized as a means to self-perfection, and thenceforth to make a positive contribution to society.”In his professional life, Kanō was an educator. Important postings included serving as director of primary education for the Ministry of Education from 1898 to 1901, and as president of Tokyo Higher Normal School from 1900 until 1920. He played a key role in making judo and kendo part of the Japanese public school programs of the 1910s. Kanō was also a pioneer of international sports. Accomplishments included being the first Asian member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) (he served from 1909 until 1938); officially representing Japan at most Olympic Games held between 1912 and 1936; and serving as a leading spokesman for Japan's bid for the 1940 Olympic Games.He died from pneumonia at the age of 77 aboard MVHikawa Maru.4th May 2008 - Fred Baur - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_BaurFredric John Baur, Americanorganic chemist and food storage technician notable for designing and patenting the Pringles packaging. Baur filed for a patent for the tubular Pringles container and for the method of packaging the curved, stacked chips in the container in 1966, and it was granted in 1970. His other accomplishments included development of frying oils and freeze-dried ice cream. Some of Baur's ashes were buried in a Pringles can at his request. Baur's children said they honored his request to bury him in one of the cans by placing part of his cremated remains in a Pringles container in his grave in suburban Springfield Township. The rest of his remains were placed in an urn buried along with the can, with some placed in another urn and given to one of Baur's grandchildren. He died at the age of 89 in Cincinnati, Ohio.Famous Birthdays4th May 1655 - Bartolomeo Cristofori - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartolomeo_CristoforiBartolomeo Cristofori di Francesco, Italian maker of musical instruments famous for inventing the piano. During the remaining years of the 17th century, Cristofori invented two keyboard instruments before he began his work on the piano. The spinettone, Italian for "big spinet", was a large, multi-choired spinet (a harpsichord in which the strings are slanted to save space), with disposition 1 x 8', 1 x 4'; most spinets have the simple disposition 1 x 8'. This invention may have been meant to fit into a crowded orchestra pit for theatrical performances, while having the louder sound of a multi-choired instrument. The other invention was the highly original oval spinet, a kind of virginal with the longest strings in the middle of the case. It was thought for some time that the earliest mention of the piano is from a diary of Francesco Mannucci, a Medici court musician, indicating that Cristofori was already working on the piano by 1698. The first unambiguous evidence for the piano comes from the 1700 inventory of the Medici mentioned in the preceding section. The entry in this inventory for Cristofori's piano begins as follows:Un Arpicembalo di Bartolomeo Cristofori di nuova inventione, che fa' il piano, e il forte, a due registri principali unisoni, con fondo di cipresso senza rosa..." (boldface added)An "Arpicembalo" by Bartolomeo Cristofori, of new invention that produces soft and loud, with two sets of strings at unison pitch, with soundboard of cypress without rose..."The Medici inventory goes on to describe the instrument in considerable detail. The range of this (now lost) instrument was four octaves, C to c″″′, a standard (if slightly small) compass for harpsichords. He was born in Padua,Republic of Venice.4 May 1852 - Alice Liddell - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_LiddellAlice Pleasance Hargreaves, was, in her childhood, an acquaintance and photography subject of Lewis Carroll. One of the stories he told her during a boating trip became the children's classic 1865 novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. On 4 July 1862, in a rowing boat travelling on the Isis from Folly Bridge,Oxford, to Godstow for a picnic outing, 10-year-old Alice asked Charles Dodgson (who wrote under the pen name Lewis Carroll) to entertain her and her sisters, Edith and Lorina, with a story. As the Reverend Robinson Duckworth rowed the boat, Dodgson regaled the girls with fantastic stories of a girl, named Alice, and her adventures after she fell into a rabbit-hole. The story was not unlike those Dodgson had spun for the sisters before, but this time Liddell asked Mr. Dodgson to write it down for her. He promised to do so but did not get around to the task for some months. He eventually presented her with the manuscript of Alice's Adventures Under Ground in November 1864. The extent to which Dodgson's Alice may be or could be identified with Liddell is controversial. The two Alices are clearly not identical, and though it was long assumed that the fictional Alice was based very heavily on Liddell, recent research has contradicted this assumption. She was born in Westminster, London4 May 1966 - Jane McGrath - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jane_McGrathJane Louise McGrath, England-bornAustralian cancer support campaigner, and the wife of former Australian cricket fast bowler Glenn McGrath. In 2005 Glenn and Jane McGrath founded the McGrath Foundation, a charitable organisation dedicated to raising money to fund breast care nurses in rural and regional Australia, and to increase breast awareness in young women. As of December 2018, 120 McGrath breast care nurses have been placed in communities throughout Australia, supporting over 67,000 Australian families experiencing breast cancer. The third day of the first Sydney test cricket match at the Sydney Cricket Ground each year is now known as Jane McGrath Day, where money is raised for the McGrath Foundation. Spectators at the SCG wear pink to show their support and sponsor logos in various places are also recoloured pink for the match. On 5 January 2013, Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard announced an $18.5 million donation to the McGrath Foundation from the Australian Government. The funding allowed all 44 existing McGrath breast care nurse positions to continue and expand the program by 10 full-time equivalent places. She was born in Paignton, Devon.4 May 1970 - Will Arnett - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_ArnettWilliam Emerson "Will" Arnett, Canadian-American actor, comedian and producer. He is best known for his role as BoJack Horseman in the Netflix series of the same name and George Oscar "Gob" Bluth II in the Fox/Netflix series Arrested Development, receiving a nomination for Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series. He has appeared in films such as Blades of Glory, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows. His performance as Devon Banks in 30 Rock earned him four Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series nominations. His deep, smooth baritone voice has landed him prolific roles within animation, including Ice Age: The Meltdown, Ratatouille, Horton Hears a Who!, Monsters vs. Aliens, Despicable Me,The Nut Job, and as Batman in the Lego Movie franchise. His involvement with The LEGO Group continues as Fox Network announced him as the host of their show LEGO Masters, which premiered on February 5, 2020. He was born in Toronto, Ontario.Events of Interest2nd May 1970 - 50th anniversary of Hunter S. Thompson and Ralph Steadman at the Kentucky Derby - https://theathletic.co.uk/1783460/2020/04/30/an-inside-look-at-how-sports-shaped-hunter-s-thompsons-gonzo-journalism/“The Kentucky Derby Is Decadent and Depraved" is a seminal sports article written by Hunter S. Thompson on the 1970 Kentucky Derby in Louisville, Kentucky, first appearing in an issue of Scanlan's Monthly in June of that year. Though not known at the time, the article marked the first appearance of gonzo journalism, the style that Thompson came to epitomize through the 1970s. The genesis of the article has been described by Thompson as akin to "falling down an elevator shaft and landing in a pool of mermaids." Accompanied by Ralph Steadman's sketches (the first of many collaborations between Thompson and Steadman), the resulting story, and the manic, first-person subjectivity that characterized it, were the beginnings of the gonzo style of journalism. The article is less about the actual race itself – indeed, Thompson and Steadman could not actually see the race from their standpoint – but rather focuses on the celebration and depravity that surrounds the event. Thompson's depiction includes the events in Louisville (his home town) in the days before and after the Derby, and Steadman captured the debauched atmosphere in his surreal drawings. Thompson provided up-close views of activities in the Derby infield and grandstand at Churchill Downs, and a running commentary on the drunkenness and lewdness of the crowd, which he states in the article as the only thing he was focusing on with the work. The narrative ends with a bittersweet anagnorisis, somewhat common in Thompson's work; after several days of immersing themselves in raucous partying and alcoholism to get a sense of the event, Thompson and Steadman realize that they have become exactly the type of people they originally planned to caricature.4th May 1961 – Malcolm Ross and Victor Prather attain a new altitude record for manned balloon flight ascending in the Strato-Lab V open gondola to 113,740 feet (34.67 km). - https://www.patriotspoint.org/news-and-events/world-record-balloon-flight-set-by-navy-at-113739-9-feet/On 04 May 1961 Navy balloon pilot Commander Malcolm Ross and flight surgeon Lieutenant Commander Victor Prather (MC) ascended to the world record height of 113,739.9 feet above sea level in their open gondola Strato-Lab. This record still holds today in 2011 for manned balloon ascent. The record-setting flight on 04 May 1961 from the USS Antietam was scheduled to test the new Navy Mark IV pressure suit. The Mark IV suit’s performance impressed NASA scientists and a modified version was selected for use by the Project Mercury astronauts. Strato-Lab remained in the air for 9 hours 54 minutes, and covered a horizontal distance of 140 miles during its flight. The research goals of the flight were successful, unfortunately LCDR Prather drowned when he slipped into the water and his pressure suit filled with seawater.4th May 2013 - Dr. Who And The Daleks enjoyed a rare theatrical re-release - https://www.scifihistory.net/may-4.htmlOn this day in 2013 (in the United Kingdom), 1965's Dr. Who And The Daleks enjoyed a rare theatrical re-release. The feature starred Peter Cushing as the signature Timelord, and here's the plot summary as provided by IMDB.com:"An eccentric inventor and his companions travel in his TARDIS to the Planet Skaro and battle the evil menace of the Daleks."It was followed by Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. Filmed in Technicolor, it is the first Doctor Who story to be made in colour and in a widescreen format. The film was not intended to form part of the ongoing story-lines of the television series. Elements from the programme are used, however, such as various characters, the Daleks and a police box time machine, albeit in re-imagined forms. The Daleks were redesigned slightly for the film. They had larger base sections, which made them taller and more imposing than the TV Daleks, which were only about five feet high. They had large, red dome lights and some were fitted with a two-jawed mechanical claw instead of a plunger. They also had more colourful paint schemes. Standard Daleks had blue domes, skirt balls and fenders, and gold collars. A Dalek leader was painted predominantly black and a second-in-command in red. Originally the Daleks were to be armed with flamethrowers, but these were vetoed on health and safety grounds and because they were considered too frightening for a young audience. Instead, the guns produced jets of CO2 gas from internally mounted fire extinguishers. Some of the Daleks used in the background for crowd scenes were constructed from moulded fibreglass, and can be distinguished by the slightly different shape of the collars around their midsections.IntroArtist – Goblins from MarsSong Title – Super Mario - Overworld Theme (GFM Trap Remix)Song Link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNMe6kF0j0&index=4&list=PLHmTsVREU3Ar1AJWkimkl6Pux3R5PB-QJFollow us onFacebook- Page - https://www.facebook.com/NerdsAmalgamated/- Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/440485136816406/Twitter - https://twitter.com/NAmalgamatedSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6Nux69rftdBeeEXwD8GXrSiTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/top-shelf-nerds/id1347661094RSS - http://www.thatsnotcanonproductions.com/topshelfnerdspodcast?format=rssInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/nerds_amalgamated/General EnquiriesEmail - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.comRate & Review us on Podchaser - https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/nerds-amalgamated-623195
Alasdair Gray explains to his sister Mora why Tenniel refused to work for Charles Dodgson again after illustrating the Alice books and rereads the beginning of this children’s classic. With thanks to: Alasdair Gray and Mora Rolley; David Thomas - technical advice and support; Berniya Hamie – closing piano; Matthew Robinson – rereads logos. Featured book: Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. You can follow @alasdairgrayrereads on Instagram for news, pictures and previews of upcoming episodes.
In 1865, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson wrote a book about a girl who is now a household name. Of course you won’t know her until I tell you what name he wrote her book under, Lewis Carroll. Now you know her? Alice’s Adventures are now classic works known by kids all over the globe.
((Note: there's a brief missing chunk of Jill's audio in the first two minutes of this ep. I'm not sure how to fix it, but I think we'll all survive! -MB)) Things get hinky in Part 2 of this Alice Liddell special! We kick things off with our Artifact Expert Brittany Carlson, a Historian of Mathematics and scholar of Lewis Carroll who is currently pursuing her PhD at the University of California, Riverside. Heavy themes include Charles Dodgson's life, speech impediment, and relationships with children -- which probably aren't what you think when looking back in time through a modern lens. Thanks for requesting this second half, and don't forget to have your eye out for show notes!
Lewis Carroll (1832-1898) was more than the author of Alice in Wonderland. In fact, his real name was Charles Dodgson, and he was a professor of mathematics by day, as well as an accomplished photographer.
Escrito en 1865, Alicia en el país de las maravillas es un clásico no sólo de la literatura juvenil, sino de la literatura en general. Popularizado por las decenas de versiones que de él se han llevado a cabo, el relato que el reverendo Charles Dodgson, verdadero nombre de Lewis Carroll, escribiera para la niña Alicia Liddell, de diez años, es un delicioso entramado de situaciones verosímiles y absurdas, metamorfosis insólitas de seres y ambientes, juegos con el lenguaje y con la lógica y asociaciones oníricas que hacen de él un libro inolvidable.

An Interview with C. Lee Mckenzie For my eighteenth Dream Gardens podcast, I interviewed author C. Lee McKenzie about one of her favorite children’s books, the children’s classic Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, pseudonym of the of the British writer and mathematician Charles Dodgson.

Alice's Psychedelic Adventures in Wonderland 150 years ago, the mathematician Charles Dodgson published his novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. Since then, the story of a young English girl following a white rabbit down a hole to a strange and curious world of nonsense and fantasy has become a permeating mixture in our culture. 50 years ago, a strange and curious new drug was making quite a scene with its potent power to cause both ecstatic hallucinations and paranoid panic. The drug, Lysergic acid diethylamide, known as LSD or acid, became popular with the 60s counterculture and infamous with anti-drug campaigners. The hyperbolic hysteria surrounding LSD fluctuated from spiritual enlightenment to DNA shattering insanity. This audio experiment to synthesize these two cultural touchstones into one epic all encompassing composition of a psychedelic trip down the rabbit hole following Alice across Acidland, through the Looking Glass and passed what drugs she found there.
Alice in Wonderland is 150 years old this year. To celebrate her anniversary we have invited Robert Douglas-Fairhurst, Professor of English Literature at Oxford University and Fellow of Magdalen College, to talk about his latest book The Story of Alice (Harvill Secker), a triple biography of Caroll's Alice books, of their subject Alice Liddell, and their creator Charles Dodgson. Douglas-Fairhurst will be in conversation with Vanessa Tait, author of The Looking Glass House (Atlantic), and the great grand-daughter of Alice Liddell.

This episode of Rippercast is a survey of suspects named as the Whitechapel murderer with a view towards their elimination. Our panel tackles the pop-suspects of the Royal Conspiracy, Walter Sickert and James Maybrick, the more absurd suspects like Charles Dodgson aka Lewis Carrol, as well as the contemporary police suspects and other individuals accused of being 'Jack the Ripper'. We also give our choices of who should not be cleared of the crime and share our philosophies on whether or not people accused of an "unsolvable" crime should be rehabilitated. With Chris Scott, Howard Brown, Gareth Williams, Ben Holme, Ally Ryder and Jonathan Menges
