I have tested the structuralist anthropology model of subconscious re-expression of archetypal structure, against Henry Holiday's illustrations to the Hunting of the Snark, and against the Lewis Carrol's character list (and the two additions that Holiday felt compelled to make, turning ten into twelve, to let the miniature artworks make visual sense). The model again proved its worth, as in about 900 other tests (in my books Mindprint 2014, and Stoneprint 2016, and Stoneprint Journal magazine editions 1 to 8). I had posted a link to my article on the Holiday illustrations, in a post about the (bogus) Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (Boojums) as the prelude to a new era of colonisation (wherein SETI will actually make human aliens by 'terraforming' some planets and planting embryos there). Here is the link to the article about the illustrations again, the same article that Goetz had linked to on his website soon after I wrote it in 2020: edmondfurter.wordpress.com/2020/05/01/henry-holidays-hunting-of-the-snark-art-has-subconscious-order/Here is the link using the Link function: link
And here is one of the illustrations with part of the archetypal structure indicated and labelled: Henry Holiday; Hunting of the snark courtroom trial scene illustration for Lewis Carroll. Woodcut by Joseph Swain. Colorised by George Gennerich for Tigertail Associates. Archetype labels and axial grid by E Furter.

The Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI), is the current real life version of the Hunting of the Snark. So is the SETI /NASA /SpaceX plans for space colonisation. The new quest is again in the name of science, exploration, and enterprise. All three could again be 'in the dock on charges of Trespass, Libel and Contempt', as in Barrister’s dream. Here is my article about archetypal structure in the Snark, and in the artworks: edmondfurter.wordpress.com/2020/05/01/henry-holidays-hunting-of-the-snark-art-has-subconscious-order/Where I invite your comments in the Comment window. While I wrote and published a magazine edition about SETI and space age cosmograms, the ironies and Boojums popped out. Here is an extract from that edition: stoneprintjournal.wordpress.com/2023/04/18/setis-aliens-are-modern-myths/While engaging with some well informed people in the Science and Space message board on Grahamhancock.com, I discovered that most people were unaware that they were complicit in space colonisation, and that there were ethical issues involved. The X in SpaceX means Exploration. The Euro space agency had just published a study concluding to send women to Mars. They will be more than Beavers on that escapade. I invite your comments below my Snark article on http://www.edmondfurter.wordpress.com

By the way I've done videos of some of the more difficult Lewis Carroll problems. Just go to Youtube and search "Bixler Lewis Carroll". Also, an update: The original poster, JD Watson, has passed away.

-The best thing that we can do is to dance -Whay if we look mad, mr. Rabbit? - Do you know any happy mad? - You are right: let's dance This is a quotition (badly translated from Italian!) that is often presented as taken from Carroll. Is it a true quotation from Alice, or from another Carroll's book? I did not find it in the text.

I now have a solution to the Great-grandson problem:
Great-grandsons cannot be both master/servant and persecutor/victim in that order.
This is his most difficult problem and he doubted that anyone would solve it. As this was near the end of his life it could be that was his final gift of frustration to future logicians.

There are many guesses to which (if at all) court trials the chapter "The Barrister's Dream" might refer. I think that the 19th century church trials in the UK could be a possible candidate. There even were verdicts in in which direction the communion should (or should not) be directed. This could have been Carroll's comment in "The Hunting of the Snark" (1876): 117 · · But the principal failing occurred in the sailing, 118 · · · · And the Bellman, perplexed and distressed, 119 · · Said he had hoped, at least, when the wind blew due East, 120 · · · · That the ship would not travel due West! And from a tract by Rev. G. W. Weldon, Ridsdale Judgement (1877): "[...] Here it is clearly laid down that the position at the North aide of the Table, looking South, and not the West side looking towards the East (viz., the Eastward position), s the most suitable and proper [...]"

The Baker's uncle Yoda's relative isThe Baker’s Uncle in an illustration by Henry Holiday to Lewis Carroll’s The Hunting Of The Snark (1876) and Yoda from a Star Wars movie. The slightly horizontally compressed image depicting Yoda is based on a photo in the Wikipedia. Stuart Freeborn (5 September 1914 – 5 February 2013), Yoda's creator , stated that Yoda is " half me and half Einstein". Freeborn’s Yoda may or may not have been inspired by Henry Holiday's Baker's Uncle. Depictions of elves, fauns and fairies became quite popular in the Victorian era and keep visiting us often, even from other galaxies. Star Wars movies are full of allusions. That is one of the fun parts of story telling. In this case of course it also could be, that Henry Holiday as well as Stuart Freeborn (and his team) alluded to the same elf pattern. When creating Yoda, Freeborn may have used his own face, but quite probably not his own ears. See also: redd.it/5m9qauHappy new year! Götz

A question in Quora.com leads to programs and scripts which implement the Bellman's rule "What I tell you three times is true!". As of today there are solutions in Haskell, Racket and a Bourne Shell script. In the post on Haskell, you also find links to scripts in Lua and Python. Happy 2017!

Prolog looks promising. Let me know if you make any progress using it. I intend to look into Prolog after I finish some other projects.
