FIRST OFF, Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass ARE academic works. What, because it's literature it's not academic? Fuck you.
SECONDLY, it's true that Lewis Carrol/Charles Dodgson is remembered for the books he wrote as opposed to the logic and math he taught as a professor at Christ College, but it is ALSO TRUE that his contributions to math and logic were NEGLIGIBLE while his contributions to ENGLISH LITERATURE were more substantial. So, fuck you again.
