Synopsis "Matemática demente (in Spanish)"

Del millar y medio de páginas que ocupan las obras completas de Lewis Carroll, Leopoldo María Panero nos ofrece en Matemática demente una selección de sus historias «humorísticas», una excelente muestra de los divertimentos lógicos del autor bajo las más variadas formas: desde relatos (alguno de terror) hasta diálogos dramatizados, pasando por hojas de instrucciones, enigmas, poemas o cartas. Como escribió el propio Carroll, son cuentos que plantean «una o más cuestiones matemáticas ―de aritmética, álgebra o geometría, según el caso― para el entretenimiento, y posible edificación, de los lectores». En todos ellos se nos descubre lo que hay de cómico ―y de subversivo― en cuanto aplicamos la lógica más implacable a algunos problemas aparentemente absurdos: siempre queda vencido nuestro sentido común.

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.

Un libro muy entretenido si te dispones a con tu propia lógica y estilo a resolver los acertijos- problemas que se te plantean. La lógica llevada al extremo siempre llevada con una historia fantástica y de cierta calidad literaria. Un libro no apto para gente sin paciencia que quiere leer rápido y entender nada.
