More about the book
Sandra Mann makes the case that Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark is an allegory which expresses Carroll's most heartfelt beliefs about God; the "religious difficulties" which he believed had arisen through human error, and the ways in which these difficulties might be solved through the application of logic. Mann postulates that The Hunting of the Snark is a brilliantly farcical exploration of an area of true passion in Carroll's life; his belief that men might employ George Boole's symbolic logic to prove out John Locke's "jumble of syllogisms" regarding God and punishment. 35 pages.
