Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (Daresbury, Cheshire, United Kingdom; January 27, 1832-Guildford, Surrey, United Kingdom; January 14, 1898), better known in the literary world by his pseudonym Lewis Carroll, was an Anglican deacon, logician, mathematician, photographer, and British writer. He was the eldest son of a large family and raised in a clerical environment, showing from a young age a great ability for mathematics and narrative, giving him the opportunity to enter Oxford, where he served as a mathematics professor for two decades.

Over the years, he became a multifaceted author, cultivating his passion for logic, literature, and photography, disciplines that were very reflected in his literary work.

Although Lewis Carroll did not receive international literary awards during his lifetime, his work was recognized and celebrated from its publication, and his influence has been lasting and global. Alice in Wonderland has been translated into more than 97 languages and has never stopped being published, establishing itself as an essential classic. Additionally, Carroll was a pioneer in the use of logic in children's literature and in the creation of fantastic worlds that challenge narrative conventions.

His most famous works are Alice in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, in addition to other works such as The Hunting of the Snark or Sylvie and Bruno.
