Excellent- More about Design Theory, Language and Architectural Space in Lewis Carroll
This book explores Lewis Carroll's works to develop spatial theories of the emergent, focusing on the relationship between words and spaces, and the role of language in placemaking. It investigates Carroll's famous children's books and lesser-known publications on geometry and architecture, using an interdisciplinary approach to relate literary and language theories to theories of space and placemaking.

This comprehensive volume delves into spatial theories of the emergent, drawing upon a meticulous close reading of the entirety of the works produced by the nineteenth-century writer and mathematician Lewis Carroll. Spanning from his whimsical fiction to his contributions to logic and geometry, including his two short pamphlets on architecture, Carroll's oeuvre provides a rich tapestry of insights.
In her exploration, Caroline Dionne employs a multifaceted approach, drawing upon selected key moments in our philosophical tradition, such as phenomenology and sociospatial theories. Through this interdisciplinary lens, Dionne examines the intricate relationship between words and spaces, emphasizing the pivotal role of language in processes of placemaking. By seamlessly linking literary and language theories to theories of space and placemaking, with a particular focus on the social and political experiences of architectural spaces, Dionne conducts a profound investigation into Carroll's most renowned children's books, Alices Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There.
In addition to these celebrated works, the book also delves into Carroll's lesser-known publications on geometry and architecture, shedding light on his multifaceted interests and contributions to the field. This volume appeals to scholars engaged in design theory, design history, architecture, and literary theory and criticism, offering a rich and multifaceted perspective on Carroll's intellectual legacy.
