Résumé

Résumé : "A Tangled Tale" is a collection of mathematical puzzles and stories written by Lewis Carroll, the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. It was first published in 1885. Unlike Carroll's more famous works, such as "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass," "A Tangled Tale" is primarily focused on mathematics and puzzles rather than narrative storytelling. The book consists of ten short chapters, each containing a mathematical problem or puzzle, often presented in the form of a dialogue between characters. The puzzles cover various branches of mathematics, including arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and logic. Some of the problems are humorous and whimsical, while others are more challenging and thought-provoking. One of the unique features of "A Tangled Tale" is that Carroll provides not only the problems themselves but also detailed solutions and explanations at the end of each chapter. Additionally, Carroll incorporates playful and witty dialogues between characters to introduce and discuss the mathematical concepts and puzzles. The book is intended to entertain and educate readers about mathematics, and it reflects Carroll's passion for the subject. While it may not be as well-known as his Alice stories, "A Tangled Tale" remains a valuable and engaging resource for those interested in recreational mathematics and logic puzzles. It demonstrates Carroll's ability to combine his literary talents with his fascination for mathematical challenges.
