... lived, making his career a transitional period. We will begin with the world before Ford. In the mid-latter part of the eighteen hundreds (c.1860-c.1895), the United States was still tending its wounds from the aftermath of the civil war. It was a time of rebuilding, reorganizing and a time to accept change. The country’s figureheads were also changing.

Nonsense completely defies and casts away all rules of logic, whereas absurdity overuses them to the point of confusion (47).

After the Mad Hatter asks the famous riddle, "Why is a raven like a writing-desk?" Alice thinks aloud, ". . . I believe I can guess ...
