In this season we’re reading several letter collections of C. S. Lewis, but in today’s episode we turn to the letters of his brother, Warnie Lewis. Dr. Diana Pavlac Glyer and Dr. Don W. King join David to discuss “The Major and the Missionary”, the correspondence between Warren Lewis and missionary, Blanche Biggs.
David speaks with Dr. Mark Noll about C.S. Lewis’ initial reception in the United States.
Dr. Rigney returns to talk with Matt about his book, “Lewis on the Christian Life: Becoming Truly Human in the Presence of God”.
David talked with Dr. Jahdiel Perez, a former president of the Oxford C.S. Lewis Society, to discuss his dissertation and upcoming keynote at The Undiscovered C.S. Lewis Conference.
It’s still Christmas! To celebrate, we’re sharing David’s recent interview on the “Fantastical Truth” podcast from Lorehaven where he attempts to answer “How Did Lewis and Tolkien Celebrate and Critique Christmas?”
This is our last episode going through “Letters to an American Lady’, picking up today at the start of 1961 and concluding with Lewis’ death in 1963.
The letters between 1959 and 1960 reveal some difficult times for both Jack and Mary, including the death of Jack’s wife, Joy Davidman.
