In Episode 2, we step into the fog-laced streets of the Victorian Age — a time of strict morals, rapid change, and richly layered storytelling. This episode explores how twins and twin-like figures were used in Victorian literature to reflect anxieties about identity, social order, and the doubling of the self.We look closer at Charles Dickens, whose novels often featured siblings and doubles to highlight moral contrasts and social inequality. Then, we tumble down the rabbit hole into Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, where Tweedledum and Tweedledee offer a playful — yet unsettling — take on mirrored identity and nonsense logic.Join me as we uncover how Victorian authors used twins not just for entertainment, but as symbols of deeper cultural tensions and philosophical questions.Music Credit: from tunetank 'Memory' by Musicstockproduction
