L’enfance est au cœur de l’œuvre carrollienne – mais comment cerner cette problématique ? Le thème des « mythologies de l’enfance » a pour but de l’approcher, en évoquant non seulement l’enfance comme mythe, mais également la question de l’enfance comme fonctionnement mythique dans l’œuvre de Carroll. Rassemblées à l’issue d’un colloque international, les études de ce recueil se donnent pour objectif d’interroger le statut ambigu de l’enfance dans l’œuvre de Lewis Carroll, fasciné par cette saison de la vie dont il n’eut de cesse de célébrer l’exceptionnelle sensibilité, dans ses textes comme dans ses photographies. La mythologie de l’enfance dans cette œuvre multiforme ne peut se comprendre qu’en mettant d’abord en perspective les différentes étapes par lesquelles le mythe s’est constitué, afin de saisir comment l’œuvre carrollienne élucide et élude par le même mouvement la problématique de l’enfance, puis comment la réception de l’œuvre s’est appuyée sur le thème de l’enfance, quitte parfois à le subvertir ou à en abuser. La question de la légitimité du mythe se pose ensuite : faut-il (et peut-on) démythifier le mythe ? Comment questionner sa portée pour comprendre ce qui se joue dans l’œuvre ? C’est dans le prolongement de cette interrogation que se pose enfin la question de la représentation de l’enfance dans l’œuvre carrollienne et dans les œuvres d’autres créateurs inspirés par l’imaginaire et l’univers carrolliens.

Doelstelling: De scriptie is een vertaalonderzoek naar de woordspelingen en culturele verwijzingen die in de vertaling door Sofia Engelsman van Alice's Adventures in Wonderland van Lewis Carroll voorkomen. Dertig woordspelingen en vijf culturele verwijzingen uit de brontekst worden met de woordspelingen en culturele verwijzingen in de doeltekst vergeleken en geanalyseerd. Middelen of methode: De middelen die gebruikt werden om de vertaalsituatie te beschrijven zijn voornamelijk bibliografische werken over Lewis Carroll en een interview met de vertaalster Sofia Engelsman via e-mail. Voor het hoofdstuk over woordspelingen werden vooral handboeken over grammatica, stilistiek, linguïstiek en vertaaltheorieën als uitgangspunt genomen. Voor het onderzoek naar de culturele verwijzingen, werden vooral encyclopedieën geraadpleegd, maar ook handboeken over de cultuur en geschiedenis van Groot-Brittannië. Resultaten: Wat de vertaling van woordspelingen betreft, heeft Sofia Engelsman een meerderheid (22) van de Engelse woordspelingen vertaald door een zelfde type woordspeling in het Nederlands. Bij de vertaling van acht woordspelingen is er geen woordspeling gebruikt in de doeltekst, en is de woordspeling bijgevolg verloren gegaan.Engelsman heeft bij de culturele verwijzingen tweemaal gebruik gemaakt van een letterlijke vertaling. Ze is er verder ook in geslaagd om voor twee Engelse verwijzingen culturele substitutie toe te passen, en dus eigen Nederlandse culturele verwijzingen te gebruiken. Ze heeft geen enkele verwijzing weggelaten, maar heeft zelfs een neologisme gecreëerd.

We live in an age that is witnessing a growing interest in narrative studies, cognitive neuroscientific tools, mind studies and artificial intelligence hypotheses. This book therefore aims to expand the exegesis of Carroll's "Alice" books, aligning them with the current intellectual environment. The theoretical force of this volume lies in the successful encounter between a great book (and all its polysemous ramifications) and a new interpretative point of view, powerful enough to provide a new original contribution, but well grounded enough not to distort the text itself. Moreover, this book is one of the first to offer a complete, thorough analysis of one single text through the theoretical lens of cognitive narratology, and not just as a series of brief examples embedded within a more general discussion. It emphasises in a more direct, effective way the actual novelty and usefulness of the dialogue established between narrative theory and the cognitive sciences. It links specific concepts elaborated in the theory of cognitive narratology with the analysis of the "Alice" books, helping in this way to discuss, question and extend the concepts themselves, opening up new interpretations and practical methods.

The history of mathematics is filled with major breakthroughs resulting from solutions to recreational problems. Problems of interest to gamblers led to the modern theory of probability, for example, and surreal numbers were inspired by the game of Go. Yet even with such groundbreaking findings and a wealth of popular-level books, research in recreational mathematics has often been neglected. The Mathematics of Various Entertaining Subjects now returns with a brand-new compilation of fascinating problems and solutions in recreational mathematics.This latest volume gathers together the top experts in recreational math and presents a compelling look at board games, card games, dice, toys, computer games, and much more. The book is divided into five parts: puzzles and brainteasers, geometry and topology, graph theory, games of chance, and computational complexity. Readers will discover what origami, roulette wheels, and even the game of Trouble can teach about math. Essays contain new results, and the contributors include short expositions on their topic's background, providing a framework for understanding the relationship between serious mathematics and recreational games. Mathematical areas explored include combinatorics, logic, graph theory, linear algebra, geometry, topology, computer science, operations research, probability, game theory, and music theory.Investigating an eclectic mix of games and puzzles, The Mathematics of Various Entertaining Subjects is sure to entertain, challenge, and inspire academic mathematicians and avid math enthusiasts alike.
