出版於 1865 年的 Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (《愛麗絲夢遊仙境》) 和它的續集 Through the Looking-Glass (《愛麗絲鏡中奇遇》，1871) 是廣受喜愛的兒童文學作品，跟隨著書中主角 Alice 的奇幻經歷，讀者在想像中體驗各種古怪、荒誕的情節，經常出現的謎語、雙關、和文字遊戲更令此書饒富興味。在語言哲學中，我們偶爾會見到哲學家援引 Alice 與書中其他角色的對話做討論，例如屢次登場的 Humpty Dumpty (Donnellan 1968; MacKay 1968; Davidson 1986)。事實上，除了語言哲學和邏輯之外，它們也為女性主義、夢境與實在等哲學立場或主題提供了素材。這門課透過這兩本書來探討一些哲學問題。
作者 Lewis Carroll 的本名是 Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832-1898)，他是英國文學家、數學家、與邏輯學家。除了文學作品之外，Lewis Carroll 著有 The Game of Logic (1886) 和 Symbolic Logic (1896) 等書，也在 Mind 上發表了 “A Logical Paradox” (Volume III, Issue 11, July 1894) 和 “What the tortoise said to Achilles” (Volume IV, Issue 14, April 1895) 等哲學論文。

Published in 1865, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its successor through the Looking-Glass are a popular children's literature work. With the fantasy experience of Alice, the protagonist Alice in the book, the readers experience various strange and absurd emotions in their imaginations. The frequent words, doubles, and text games make the book more exciting. In linguistic philosophy, we occasionally see philosophers citing Alice’s conversations with other characters in the book, such as Humpty Dumpty (Donnellan 1968; MacKay 1968; Davidson 1986). In fact, in addition to language philosophy and logic, they also provide material for philosophical stands or topics such as feminism, dreaminess and reality. This course explores some philosophical questions through these two books.
