Transcribed from the 1911 Macmillan and Co. edition by David Price "Phantasmagoria and Other Poems" by Lewis Carroll is a collection of whimsical poetry written during the late 19th century, specifically in the Victorian era. This book features a blend of humorous, fantastical, and often nonsensical verse, exploring a variety of themes while showcasing Carroll's inventive use of language and playful imagination. The likely topic revolves around the fantastical and surreal, presenting readers with a journey into a world filled with ghosts, riddles, and delightful absurdities. The collection's centerpiece, "Phantasmagoria," consists of several cantos that narrate a humorous encounter between the speaker and a ghost who shares the "Five Good Rules of Etiquette" for ghostly interactions. The speaker navigates the challenges and follies of dealing with the ghostly visitor, displaying Carroll's characteristic wit and clever wordplay. Other poems in the collection, such as "Echoes," "A Sea Dirge," and "Hiawatha’s Photographing," further exemplify his lyrical dexterity, often employing clever rhymes and playful storytelling to convey a range of emotions and experiences. The poems collectively celebrate the joy of imagination, inviting readers to relish in the joy and whimsy of poetic expression. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
