He is the kind of pen pal who exemplifies the best of the communal worldof science facilitated internationally by journal literature and informal correspondence.Some time ago he surprised me with a delightful study comparing postal services atthe turn of the century through 1941,1 afterhaving already impressed me with his detailed knowledge of the botanical literature.Last year he delighted me with a reprint ofhis work on Lewis Carroll,’2which we nowshare with Current Contentsm readers. Asthey well know, I’m a sucker for humor inall its forms.s,l But this particularly appealsto my interest in metaphorical comectionsin sciencesBefore we start, however, let me make afew citationist remarks about Lewis Carroll,the pseudonym assumed by the ReverendCharles L. Dodgson. According to MartinGardner, Dodgson was a relatively ‘‘undistinguished mathematician who delivered dulllectures at Oxford and pemed equally dulltreatises on such topics as geometry and algebraic determinants. Only when he approached mathematics in a less serious mooddid his subject and his way of writing aboutit take on lasting interest.”6Carroll’s greatest influence on science, aswell as his continuing popularity, came fromhis ability at word play—coining new, fantastical terms; giving new meanings towords; and making puns. We mentionedCarroll in a previous essay on puns and theirrole in communication. 7 According to Joseph S. Attsnasio, Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders. Montclair24State College, Upper Montclair, New Jersey, Carroll’s themes, word choices, andtone in his fictional works were influencedby a hearing loss in his right ear and an apparently bad stutter.gIn Carroll’s “Alice” booksg the confusion that results from word play makes forhumorous entertainment, encapstdated in thequote of Carroll’s egg on the wall, HumptyDumpty: ‘‘ ‘When I use the word,’ Humpty Dumpt y said, in rather a scornful tone,‘it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.’ ‘‘9 (p. 184)For many years I used this quote as theintroduction to my lectures on the ambiguity of language and the symbolism of citations. 3 Countless researchers have usedCarrollian themes when describing the human factor in the conduct of science. In‘‘Pancreatitis: through the looking glass, ”Herbert Y. Kressel, Hospital of the Urriversity of Pemsylvania, Philadelphia, usesHumpty Dumpty’s quote to introduce hiscommentary on the problem of defining anddiagnosing the symptoms of pancreatitis; 10and Eli Glatstein, Radiation OncologyBranch, National Cancer Institute, Bethesda,describes the problems in defining and treating non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas, where “thedogma set forth by many seems almost inversely proportional to the experience ofthose investigating these diseases. .[and] thatcertain aspects of the non-Hedgkin’s lymphomas have assumed the qualities of a surrealistic fantasy, as if written by LewisCarroll. ” 11 D. H. Osmond, Departmentof Physiology, University of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, sees similar Carrollian surrealism in the quest for federal researchftrndin . 12

While some current papers comment onthe word-meaning confusion, others useAlice-in-Wonderland motifs in describingaspects of research. Gideon M. Eschel andcolleagues, Assaf Harofeh Medical Center,Tel-Aviv University, Zerifin, Israel, relateart account of a six-and-one-half- year-oldboy afflicted with an acute Epstein-Barr virus who had what was termed “Alice inWonderland syndrome’ ‘—an acute visualdisorder characterized by anomalies in perception associated with shapes, color, perspective, and reciprocal positions of objects. 13Wayne A. Hershberger, NorthernIllinois University, De Krdb, describes anexperiment in whichforty food deprived. .chlcks were testedindividually in a straight runway corrtaining a familiar food cup that moved whenthe chicks moved. The food cup alwaysmoved in the same direction as thechick. . . . In Lswis Carroll’s. picturesqueterminology, the experimental chicks weretested in Alice’s “room through the looking-gfaas, ” in which, in order to approachthe food cup, they had to’ ‘walk the otherway. ”14I think from the selected examples abovethat the zany and hilarious interpretations ofsober subjects indicate that Carroll’s humorstrikes a chord in many scientists. In a recent telephone conversation, Rudi discussedthe appeal of humor in science and his interest in the Carroll comection:WeII, like most peopIe, I think I have apretty good sense of humor, I first cameinto contact with the topic of scientific humor back in my graduate-student dayswhen a very famous rmlogy pardy called.Ebdmis pterovelox gobierrsiswas reprinted15 [it is a 1928 parodic monograph ona nonexistentbird from the GobiDesert16]. Essentially, since then I hadthis folder, and every so often when I sawa cartoon or an article or a spoof, I wouldthrow it into the folder . . . . I am also aLewis Carroll fan, and I had noticed, ofcourse, looking at the general accumulations of examples, that a certain numberdealt directfy with Lewis Carroll. Somewere actually parodies of Lewis Carrollitems. 17The popularity of Reverend Dodgson andhis linguistic whimsy is as strong as ever.lltere are even two flourishing’ ‘Lewis Carroll” societies. One, which published thefollowing reprint, is located at 43 ByronAvenue, London, UK; the other, with amore imperious title—the Lewis CarrollSocietyof North America-has ita headquarters at 617 Rockford Road, Silver Spring,Maryland.So, while I go off on an expedition looking for some toves, rrromeraths, boojums,and the ever-elusive snark, sit back and enjoy the following reprint.*****h4ythankrto Peter Pesavento for his helpin the preparation of this essay.ow,,REFERENCES1.

‘Twas quarrtig, srrd the vuscy graphUnscrewed its curves with shrill delighuThe treaty ewes began to laughAnd the slismrd logs took Wlght.Clark’s opus ia humorously and skiltldly written but rather didiwtic and pessimistic. on ge 9,for example, the Coccus says:‘Reware the Entropy Erast, my sun!The muuth that sucks, the breath that cools!Beware the Eohznrarm bud, and shunThe chattering crdoric ghouls!’‘This hrunarr race in surely madThey slit each other’s throats.They blow each other off the earth.They sink each other’s boats.’He took hia dritting pen in band:Long rirrrethe beast of heat he sought–Then rested he try the Plinck-Pkmck tree,And stocd awhde in thought,‘Should we permit,’ the Coccus asked,‘These sifly beasts to thrive,Who cafl themselves the lords of earthYet selfistdy conniveFreedom, dignity and pceFrom runny lands to drive?’And, as in therrnaf thought he stood,The Entropy Eeast, with eyes of flame,Came siurping through the melting wood,And siphoned as it came!One, hvo! One, IWO!And through andthrough.The brarrkaome pen wem snicker-snack!The head, the f t—and now dre heat,Released, came streaming back.‘And haat thou slain the Entropy Eeast?Accept this laurel for your head!O frabjous day! Callooh! Crdfay!The gfarvish thief of heat is dead!’‘Twas qoanrig, and the vuacy graphUnscrewed ita curves with shrifl delighuThe beaty ewes began to laughAnd rtre siistnal logs took flight.Aa a botanist, I can’t say if this parody is nonsenseor meaningful.On the other hand, Newmrm’a ‘Jabberwockygerrea,’ a Poem of 22 stanzas, is not a burlesqueof Carroll’s “Jabberwocky’ but merely makes afew borrowings fkom it, for example, the title or‘Beware the tnrshy-stnmp disease’! This verse isof only peripfrerai intereat to Carrollogists.A most eia-borate take-off is Patd F. Clark’s19-page Alice in Virus f#rd, a presidential address to the Society of Ameriearr Bacteriologistsand a fable embellished with humorous text, fivecartoons by W. Allen, and appreciable humourverse. The poems include ‘The C.uecus and theSpirochaere,’ ‘Wriggle, wriggie, Spimchaete,’and ‘The hrfhrenza Vkus’ based on, respectively, Carroll’s ‘The Walrus and the Carpenter,’‘Twinkfe, twinkle, fiffle bat,’ and ‘In winter, whenthe fields are white.’ This take-off is populatedwith a curious admixture of Alim charaetera, viraland bacteriaf typea, fruit flies and king crabs, andfamous people like van Leeuwerrhcrek, Pavlov,and Erasmus. Of eourae Alice must be initiallyshrunk to microbiad size so that she can interactwith the bacteria and vimaes.The Human Race, in the person of Alice, isbrought before the Triburral of the Microbe Parlirrment, who have convened ‘to consider what todo with “man” ‘. Despite the dldacticism, thefable presents some amusing points of microbiology, has a firud apparently origirrsf poem, ‘Thedream of the Unknown soldier,’ and ends on anoptimistic note. As the address was written during August 1938 during increasing war fears dueto Nazi Germany’s pressures on Czechoslovakia,the didacticism and pessimism seem understandable.Heath’s vatuable articles 7 discuss several parodies or quasiparudies of the Alice books, namely ones deafing with ‘insect-land’, ‘flowerland’,‘mrrnstcrhurd’, ‘frivekmd’, ‘beehmd’, and ‘jtmgleland’. I have seen none of these, which, at anyrate, s m peripheral to real or hard-core scienee.However, very briefly mentioned by Heath5.7 arewo works on such science. The physicist GeorgeGamow23 in Mr Tompkins in Wonderlandattempted to sugarcoat modem physics via anAlician vehicle complete with charming illustrations by John Hookham. However, this work ladsverse and is, aa Heath7 correctly noted. not reallyparody. Merrill’s ‘Alice’s adventures in evolutionland’ ,24 which Heath5 erroneously fistedunder ‘aatirea’ rather than liidrtctic’ (the piacewhere it is discussed in Heath,7), was serializedin the pardlcai periudk.af Z9re Worm Runner’sDigesr (see .%htnidls). However, this work issaris verse and cartoons and on the whole is merelysilly and kxhous.Lastly, disparate cartoons of Alice and a mushroom appear in Norstog and hags (p.250) byPriscilla Fawcett, as discussed above, and in the19 October 1963 77re New Yorker by Ed Fisher(reproducdin Emerson,25).
