For over thirty years, the Oxford C. S. Lewis Society has met weekly in the medieval colleges of the University of Oxford. During that time, it has hosted as speakers nearly all those still living who were associated with the Inklingsthe Oxford literary circle led by C. S. Lewisas well as authors and thinkers of a prominence that nears Lewiss own. C. S. Lewis and His Circle offers the reader a chance to join this unique group. Roger White has worked with Society past presidents Brendan and Judith Wolfe to select the most important talks, which are here made available to the wider public for the first time. They exemplify the best of traditional academic essays, thoughtful memoirs, and informal reminiscences about C. S. Lewis and his circle. The reader will reimagine Lewiss Cosmic Trilogy with former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, read philosopher Elizabeth Anscombes final word on Lewiss arguments for Christianity, hear the Reverend Peter Bides memories of marrying Lewis and Joy Davidman in an Oxford hospital, and learn about Lewiss Narnia Chronicles from his former secretary. Representing the finest of both personal and scholarly engagement with C. S. Lewis and the Inklings, the talks collected here set a new tone for engagement with this iconic Oxford literary circlea tone close to Lewiss own Oxfordbred sharpness and wryness, seasoned with good humor and genuine affection for C. S. Lewis and his circle.
