Lewis TEXT RESPONSE “I do not mean‚ of course‚ that he will make any conscious inference from what he reads to a general philosophical theory that all values are subjective and trivial. The very power of Gaius and Titius depends on the fact that they are dealing with a boy: a boy who thinks he is ‘doing’ his ‘English prep’ and has no notion that ethics‚ theology‚ and politics are all at stake. It is not a theory they put into his mind‚ but an assumption‚ which ten years

yet mind boggling poem “Jabberwocky” by Lewis Carroll‚ Carroll blends words together which creates a more made-up‚ magical theme. Though this poem is confusing and hard to understand at first because of the made up words‚ I believe that as said in the anecdote of the Introduction to Poetry‚ from the Anthology‚ the poem would take on a whole new meaning if we had the poet explain how he came to write the poem itself. I would love to sit down with Lewis Carroll and ask him why he wrote this fascinating
