Summary

Lewis Carroll: What did the tortoise say to Achilles?

Carroll's logic, the one he presents in his books, is often difficult to understand, so the reader, very often due to the unusual language, simply gets lost, and one of the main reasons for this is that Carroll often dealt with problems that are at the very edge of logic, and one of the best examples of this is the formulation of logical conclusions. What did the tortoise say to Achilles? (1895) is a short allegorical dialogue, a game of logic, the title of which clearly indicates Zeno's famous paradox about the race between the tortoise and Achilles, which the latter never manages to overtake. Similarly, here too Achilles never succeeds in convincing the tortoise of the correctness of his judgement, because the tortoise keeps giving him new and new premises. The intricate story, which makes up the second part of this edition, belongs to a series of Carroll's works deeply immersed in the field of mathematics and logic.
