Lent series: C. S. Lewis and myths of dying gods Supposal v. Allegory John Bunyan, Pilgrim’s Progress; C. S. Lewis, Letters A COMMON criticism of the Narnia stories is that they are merely allegories — generally considered a rather limited art form, in which everything represents something in...

"For Lewis, the great value of stories is the way they allow their readers to experience ideas rather than simply think about them."

Pagan Narnia: Lions, Witches, Wardrobes, and world myth C.S. Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is often read through a modern or theological lens, but when we set aside those frameworks, the story begins to take on a different and much older …

Think The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is just a story for Christians? #Narnia is a land of deep magic and even deeper myth. #CSLewis #Aslan

Yeah, this tracks. Kinda disappointed I got "0" on Lewis -- I think there were several times my second option would have boosted the #CSLewis-quotient (or #Aquinas for that matter), but I'll take #Luther and #Calvin on top. What's your result? […]

In which I wrote a book…. If you have read my work over the last 3 years or so, from my blog posts about _Nightmare Alley_ to my interviews with scholars like Charlie W. Starr about their work on C.S. Lewis and his circle, you know I am interested in the Inklings. And in what Jennifer Woodruff calls the Inklings-adjacent figures, people who knew the Inklings or explored similar ideas. Writers like Joy Davidman and Dorothy L. Sayers, who knew the Inklings circle, or figures like John Dickson Carr and William Lindsay Gresham, who came close to the group in some way while exploring similar ideas in very different genres. In 2025, I began compiling my interviews with scholars on the Inklings and the -adjacent figures into a book, which was accepted by Apocryphile Press. If you like Charles Williams or enjoyed the essay collection _The Inklings and King Arthur_ (2017) you likely know that Apocryphile publishes excellent content on Williams and other members of the Inklings as well. Here is an excerpt from the introduction: > One of P.G. Wodehouse’s characters opines after listening to an author talk about how they came to write their book that a simple apology would have sufficed. He had a point. Even if he didn’t, the fact that I have been publishing words since I was nineteen means I probably do not need to offer more words about how I got here. > > However, this is my first book, and a curious book that requires some explanation. > > My plan to avoid the scholarly life started to derail during my freshman year of college. I liked books, but wanted to make a living as a writer, which meant practical experience over theory. I was in a publishing program that encouraged students to start their careers while they were still in school. I had also taken all my college-level English classes in high school (that’s another > story). > > Although I didn’t need English classes for my degree, I liked C.S. Lewis and the college had an archive devoted to C.S. Lewis and his friends. The archive was supervised by Joe Ricke, an English professor who encouraged students to give short presentations on the Inklings every Friday at “C.S. Lewis Teas.” I gave several presentations. I liked the visiting scholars I met through the archive. Scholars like Matthew Dickerson, who gave a talk to the student body at morning chapel about vocation and a talk to computer scientists in the afternoon about “Can Computers Think… and Enjoy Sex?” After attending both talks (the answer to the computer question turned out to be “no”), I bought Dickerson’s book _From Homer to Harry Potter_ and asked him to autograph it. When Dickerson did another presentation series the next year, I attended his talk on interrogation ethics in _The Fellowship of the Ring_ and he kindly autographed the book again. Something in the way he wore several vocations, and a story he told about how he decided which one to make into a career, left me wondering whether I had to choose between being a proper writer and being someone who studied writers. Perhaps especially because Dickerson was never an English major either, yet he had contributed to the _J.R.R. Tolkien Encyclopedia_. > > After college, I became a journalist at a smalltown newspaper and occasional contributor to a literary magazine that often published articles on the Inklings. The COVID pandemic led to Ricke turning the C.S. Lewis teas into a virtual event. Then job changes led him to turn the virtual teas into a new entity, The Inkling Folk Fellowship (IFF). I began spending Friday afternoons > over Zoom watching Dickerson and others present on anything from C.S. Lewis’ BBC talks to Charles Williams’ mystical Christmas plays. I also became interested in another group Dickerson belonged to, the Chrysostom Society, and asked for his help connecting with fellow members who had known the late poet Robert Siegel. I had picked the worst time: Dickerson was staying in an off-grid cabin as artist-in-residence for Alaska State Parks. He kindly followed up a month later, helped me connect with Siegel’s friends, and offered to let me interview him about his current projects. Being a proper writer and being interested in “English major things” still seemed like separate worlds. But worlds moving closer together. > > A year later, the literary magazine had published my interview with Dickerson, and its lead editor asked for my help. A hacking attack had damaged the magazine’s website, and someone needed to manage the new site while the editorial team reorganized resources and fixed the damage. I was no longer working for a newspaper, and missed hearing a new person’s story every day. A friend from those C.S. Lewis Teas had recently published a short story in a fantasy anthology, and after interviewing him, I realized I knew many other writers interested in the Inklings. The magazine seemed a good space to create a weekly column for conversations with scholars, maybe even scholars researching niche topics not yet explored much in academic literature. > > This book contains many interviews from the following two years, many of the interviewees foundational figures in the second wave of C.S. Lewis scholarship (roughly 1990 onward). It also contains interviews acquired specifically for this book and interviews released elsewhere discussing figures connected to the Inklings. > > I should probably explain why the book is about _the other Inklings_. Partly because the book progresses into discussing figures not discussed much in Inklings literature, which means that the book increasingly becomes about whether our image of the Inklings (who they were, who they influenced) is a flattened version of a more nuanced reality. It also does not primarily discuss J.R.R. Tolkien, because Luke Shelton was already building a collection of interviews with Tolkien scholars and fans when I started my interview column. I also made the mistake several years ago of answering a scholar’s question of why Tolkien scholarship seemed to be receiving all the awards from academic groups. I wrote an article for the scholar’s blog where I laid out some problems I saw in current Lewis scholarship. I offended a few, do not think I convinced anybody, and remembered an important lesson. It is helpful to analyze a problem, too easy to complain about the problem, and very hard to fight the problem. Hopefully, these interviews fight the problem. **In _The Other Inklings_ , G. Connor Salter takes readers deep into the world of Lewis and his circle—not through conventional biography, but through revealing interviews with the people who have spent their lives studying them. Scholars, poets, theologians, and novelists share what drew them to these writers and how their ideas continue to inspire new generations.** **Covering everything from fantasy and theology to ecology, Shakespeare, secret societies, and even William Lindsay Gresham’s crime thriller _Nightmare Alley_ , this book offers an unprecedented glimpse into the lively, eccentric, and sometimes unexpected world of “Inklings-adjacent” figures.** **Whether you’re a lifelong fan of the Inklings or just discovering their work, The Other Inklings invites you into the living conversation—a fellowship that spans generations.** **_The Other Inklings: Interviews with Scholars on C.S. Lewis, Charles Williams, Owen Barfield & Inklings-Adjacent Figures_ (Apocryphile Press, 2026) is available in digital and physical formats from all major book sellers.** ### Share this: * Share on X (Opens in new window) X * Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook * Like Loading... ### _Related_

Evening book bite: CS Lewis — \"...though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of Time.\" Layers beyond layers. 🌌📖 #CSLewis #DeeperMagic #Narnia #Bluesky

Kindness doesn't require care for its object, while actions for the good of the beloved may seem unkind in the moment. A child may be angry when a knife is taken from it, but nobody would call it an act of love to allow the child to keep the knife.
