What is the nonsense poem by Lewis Carroll with the bandersnatch the jubjub bird and the toves?

Answer 1

in a way, it was his reaction to the time period in which he grew up. Lewis Carroll always wanted to be original. he himself said "Perhaps the hardest thing in all literature.. is to write anything original". Nevertheless, he worked his hardest to come up with masterpeices of literature of the likes the world had never seen . His nonsense poetry and literature seemed to revoke the rigid, set rules and defining guidelines and expectations of the Victorian Era. His writing broke with contemporary tradition. For example, children literature at the time was usually didactic and preaching morals and virtues, not necessarily the most entertaining things. To the contrary, Carroll's nonsensical, humurous tone created a new literary trend in the age. his use of simple diction granted readers of all ages access to his works; children were amused by the main characters' adventures and discoveries, while adults intrigued in the witty, clever lines, and the symbolic social commentary.
