The content of this thesis is two-fold. The first part takes the form of an essay while the second part presents a theoretical project for an architectural installation. Using these two modes as different ways to address similar issues, the present work proposes to question the instrumentalisation of geometry in today's architectural practice. The work of Lewis Carroll (Charles L. Dodgson) and, more specifically, his masterpiece, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, will be approached and interpreted in order to observe the participation of geometry---of Euclidean geometry---in our understanding of the notions of space and time, and to reveal their paradoxical aspect. The aim is to explore how geometry, language and nonsense bear intimate connections to our perception of space and time. Once revealed, these connections will enable us to address the following question: can architecture be comprehended and experienced as an event?

Skräck är den filmgenre som specifikt är till för att locka fram rädsla hos tittaren. Denna uppsats fokuserar på att ta reda på hur komponenter i bild och ljud medför den upplevda subjektiva känslan hos karaktären genom gestaltningen av demonisk besatthet. Uppsatsen genomför en semiotisk analys på två olika avsnitt från tv-serien Penny Dreadful. Genom att utföra den semiotiska analysen på hur gestaltningen av besatthet visas i bild och ljud, kunde uppsatsen fastställa att de olika bild- och ljudkomponenterna både samarbetar, men även agerar olika för att få tittaren att uppleva den fenomenologiska känslan av skräcken som gestaltas. Bild- och ljudkomponenterna samarbetar också för att föra narrativet framåt, men om en komponent i ljudet inte stämmer överens med de övriga komponenterna i bilden kan budskapet av en scen ändras. Detta kan leda till att tittaren kan uppfatta ljudet som att det förstärker bildens budskap. Slutsatsen kom fram till att komponenterna i bilden visade tittaren det som de ska uppmärksamma samtidigt som de olika ljudkomponenterna förde narrativet framåt. Både bilden och ljudet bidrog till att förstärka den fenomenologiska upplevelsen och involvera tittaren i narrativet.

I denna uppsats gör vi en komparativ analys av Lewis Carrolls (1865) originalversion Alice i Underlandet med en bilderboksversion av Susie Linn (2015). Syftet är att undersöka vad som skett efter att en adaption har genomförts från kapitelbok till bilderbok. Vi tittar på vilka skillnader och likheter det finns mellan böckerna, och det inkluderar även karaktärerna, vilka är Alice, den vita kaninen, kålmasken/fjärilslarven och Cheshirekatten, samt tre episoder, tebjudningen, krocketturneringen och rättegången. Analysens resultat visar att böckerna följer samma kronologi, men i bilderboken som en komprimerad version. Det finns vissa delar som är borttagna efter adaptionen till bilderboken men de mest kända episoderna är kvar. Resultatet visar även att karaktärerna har fått en mildare framtoning i bilderboken jämfört med kapitelboken. Vi kan också konstatera att litteraturen är relevant till att använda i undervisningen i förskoleklass upp till årskurs 3.

O livro de Carrol - inédito em língua portuguesa - defende, na forma de uma peça teatral, Os Elementos de Euclides como o melhor livro-texto para o ensino de Matemática numa época em que o sistema de educação da Inglaterra passava por uma revisão que incluiu a possibilidade de substituir o texto de Euclides por outro manual, mais moderno, mais prático e que representasse as trasnformações que representasse as transformações que caracterizam o final dos século XIX. Nos ensais, dentre outros aspectos, tematiza-se a atividade de traduzir, mobilizando teóricos da tradução e elementos gerais da obra sde Lewis Carrol. Considerando necessário compreender como o livro situa-se na história da ideias científicas - isto é, tornando-o como fonte historiográfica -, procedendo a uma investigação sobre o momento - o tempo e o espaço - em que foi escrito, do que resultaram compreensões que vinculam a elaboração do texto ao cenário da época vitoriana e às vivências pessoais do seu autor. Os dois ensaios, com a íntegra da tradução e com as notas de rodapé a ela incorporadas, compõem um esforço hermenêutico para compreender o Euclides e Seus Rivais Modernos e, consequentemente, apresentá-lo ao leitor / This work begins with a translation of Lewis Carroll's - Euclid and His Modern Rivals - followed by two texts which intend to be an initial hermeneutical analysis of it. This book - of which had not yet a translation to Portuguese -, was written as a theoretical play and claims that there is no better textbook than the Elements of Euclid for teaching Mathematics. Carrol does his defense of Euclid in a period in which the Enghish educational system is going through and extended revision, a time when the reform parameters consider the possibility of changing the books of Euclid for another manual, so to speak, more modern, more practical and more representative of the transformations that characterize the end of the 19th century. In our two essays, among other aspects, we study the activity of translating, mobilizing translation theorists and some general elements of Lewis Carrol's works in Math and Literature. Considering necessary to understand how the book takes part in the history of the scientific ideas - or, in other words, trying to undestand it as a historical source -, an investigation was made about the moment in which it was written, its time and its space. From this approach it was possible to elaborate a text studying the scenario of the Victorian period, revealing aspects of what we think to be some personal experiments of the author. Both texts - which must be considered in the light of the translation to the Portuguese language - are presented as an introduction of Euclid and His Modern Rivals, an effort to understand it and to present it to Portuguese speakers
