<div>Hello, my name is Bo. Last semester, I had the pleasure of taking a philosophy class entitled: "Philosophy of Literature: JRR Tolkien, CS Lewis, Charles Williams, the Modern Romantics, and the Meaning of Life." I had been a fan of all three, Lewis in particular, for a very long time (as well as a lifelong geek girl), and the title alone had me hooked. I had no idea that the three of them (and others) worked together! Out of the loop, that's me... <br/> <br/>It was a very enjoyable class, and the result of it was that I was invited to be in a private discussion group during this current semester, along with about six other students. Each of us will produce a 12-18 page thesis on one of the topics touched on in class, or one we choose ourselves. So here I am. My topic is (tenatively) an exploration of the archetypal objects of power in the Chronicles of Narnia. <br/> <br/>Pleased to meetcha.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://inklings.tribe.net">Inklings</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>November was National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), and I issued a challenge to Charles Williams fans to try to write a Charles Williams-type novel. <br/> <br/>For those unfamiliar with Charles Williams, he was a 20th-century novelist, and a member of the Inklings, the literary group that included C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien and several others. You can read more about him at the following web site: <br/> <br/>http://www.coinherence.faithweb.com <br/> <br/>And there is also a mailing list dedicated to his works at <br/> <br/>http://groups.yahoo.com/group/coinherence-l <br/> <br/>And for more about National Novel Writing Month see: <br/> <br/>http://www.nanowrimo.org/userinfo.php?uid=130800 <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://inklings.tribe.net">Inklings</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>I'm currently reading Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis and wanted to share my thoughts on it. <br/>It's excellent and he has definitely opened my eyes on a lot of things that I never even thought about. <br/>I've read all the chronicles of narnia and love them dearly so I decided to read some of his other works and so far I haven't been disappointed. </div> <div> posted in <a href="http://inklings.tribe.net">Inklings</a> - 4 replies </div>
