This volume serves as a comprehensive index and companion to the diverse literary and logical works of Lewis Carroll, offering readers a structured map to navigate his enduring legacy. The collection prominently features his most famous narratives, *Alice's Adventures in Wonderland* and its sequel, *Through the Looking-Glass*. These tales detail the narrative arcs of Alice, the White Rabbit, and the Queen of Hearts, encompassing chapters ranging from the descent down the rabbit-hole to the final confrontation in the looking-glass house. The index also highlights Carroll's extensive poetic contributions, such as *Phantasmagoria*, *Three Sunsets*, and *The Hunting of the Snark*. These works blend humor with serious themes, exploring nonsense poetry alongside satirical verses like *The Hunting of the Snark*, an agony in eight fits. Furthermore, the index encompasses Carroll's significant logical treatises, including *The Game of Logic* and *Symbolic Logic*, as well as his satirical poems and other writings like *Sylvie and Bruno*. By organizing these disparate texts, the work provides a substantial overview of Carroll's evolution from a playful storyteller to a master of nonsense poetry and mathematical logic. It captures the development of his characters, from the Cheshire Cat to the Mock Turtle, and illustrates his unique ability to weave whimsical fantasy with rigorous intellectual inquiry. This compilation allows readers to appreciate the full breadth of his creativity, from the whimsical illustrations accompanying his stories to the complex diagrams found in his logical exercises, ensuring a clear understanding of his multifaceted contributions to literature and thought.
