Why the Mad Hatter is Mad
, 03 09th, 2010With the release of a new Alice in Wonderland movie and Johnny Depp cast as the iconic Mad Hatter, the characters from Lewis Carroll’s classic novel are once again at the forefront of popular culture. Over the years, there has been much debate as to the nature of the Mad Hatter, but an article I read recently shed some light on the topic. Before its adverse effects were known, hatters used to use mercury when curing materials for their products.
This exposure to mercury, it is expected, led many hatters to actually go insane and is probably the origin of the term “as mad as a hatter.” Some of the effects of mercury poisoning include mood swings, schizoid tendencies, irrational fears and poor concentration. Many people hypothesize that Carroll’s personal hatter may have suffered from the effects of mercury poisoning and spawned the character.
