The Fellowship by Philip Zaleski,Carol Zaleski Pdf
C. S. Lewis is the 20th century's most widely read Christian writer and J.R.R. Tolkien its most beloved mythmaker. For three decades, they and their closest associates formed a literary club known as the Inklings, which met every week in Lewis's Oxford rooms and in nearby pubs. They discussed literature, religion, and ideas; read aloud from works in progress; took philosophical rambles in woods and fields; gave one another companionship and criticism; and, in the process, rewrote the cultural history of modern times. In The Fellowship, Philip and Carol Zaleski offer the first complete rendering of the Inklings' lives and works. The result is an extraordinary account of the ideas, affections and vexations that drove the group's most significant members. C. S. Lewis accepts Jesus Christ while riding in the sidecar of his brother's motorcycle, maps the medieval and Renaissance mind, becomes a world-famous evangelist and moral satirist, and creates new forms of religiously attuned fiction while wrestling with personal crises. J.R.R. Tolkien transmutes an invented mythology into gripping story in The Lord of the Rings, while conducting groundbreaking Old English scholarship and elucidating, for family and friends, the Catholic teachings at the heart of his vision. Owen Barfield, a philosopher for whom language is the key to all mysteries, becomes Lewis's favorite sparring partner, and, for a time, Saul Bellow's chosen guru. And Charles Williams, poet, author of "supernatural shockers," and strange acolyte of romantic love, turns his everyday life into a mystical pageant. Romantics who scorned rebellion, fantasists who prized reality, wartime writers who believed in hope, Christians with cosmic reach, the Inklings sought to revitalize literature and faith in the twentieth century's darkest years-and did so in dazzling style.

Calvin hatte großes Interesse daran, was die Bibel über den Menschen lehrt, wer er ist, was er tut, was seine Rolle und Verantwortung in der Welt ist. Vom Gottesverständnis, so Johannes Calvin, lasse sich auf ein adäquates Verständnis des Menschen schließen, denn dieser sei in Gottes Ebenbild geschaffen. Geht man Calvins Verständnis von Gott näher auf den Grund, darf eine Berücksichtigung des historischen Kontextes, in dessen Rahmen sein imago Dei entstanden ist, nicht fehlen. Jason Van Vliet bettet seine Überlegungen in die stark humanistisch geprägte Denkweise der Renaissance, seine Interaktion mit Philipp Melanchthon und seine Auseinandersetzung mit Andreas Osiander ein und kommt schließlich zu einer genauen Profilierung des imago Dei des Johannes Calvin.
Together with his brother Warnie, and his friends J.R.R. Tolkien, Charles Williams, and others, C.S. Lewis made up an intellectual group which called themselves the Inklings. The joke, of course, was a literary one, for Lewis, above all, the heaven-directed was never lacking. (Christian)

The Ideal of Kingship in the Writings of Charles Williams, C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien by Christopher Scarf Pdf
In his distinctive work, Christopher Scarf explores the writings of the three most prominent Oxford Inklings - Charles Williams (1886-1945), C.S. Lewis (1898-1963), and J.R.R. Tolkien (1892-1973) - to reveal and contrast their conceptions of the ideal of 'kingship'; divine, human, and mythological. As practising Christians, the faith of all three writers was central to their literary and personal visions of kingship, society, love, beauty, justice and power. Scarf investigates their beliefin God as Creator and heavenly King, opinions on the nature of His very being, and the way in which all believed the Creator to be unique rather than one among many. The relationship between the earthly and heavenly King is considered, as well as the extent to which the writers contend that earthly kings are God's viceregents, act with His authority, and are duty-bound to establish and sustain just and joyous societies. Examining the writings of all three men in detail, Scarf also highlights the covert evidence of their lives and personalities which may be discovered in their texts. An understanding of the authors' individual but overlapping views of the essential meaning of Kingship, and their personalities and early lives, will enrichthe reader's appreciation of their created worlds. This volume provides a unique focus on Kingship and the Christian beliefs of three well-loved writers, and will be of interest to any reader seeking a fuller understanding of the individuals and their works.

How did five twentieth-century British authors, C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, Charles Williams, Owen Barfield, and Dorothy L. Sayers, along with their mentors George MacDonald and G. K. Chesterton, come to contribute more to the intellect and imagination of millions than many of their literary contemporaries put together? How do their achievements continue to inform and potentially transform us in the twenty-first century? In this first collection of its kind, addressing the entire famous group of seven authors, the twenty-seven chapters in The Inklings and Culture explore the legacy of their diverse literary art—inspired by the Christian faith—art that continues to speak hope into a hurting and deeply divided world.

The Philosophical Quest for God by Norbert Fischer Pdf
Philosophy is Love of wisdom. There is continual danger that the ports of the search will be taken as the final goal. The constitutive absoluteness of its goal points to an unknown absolute. This absolute creates a place for thinking about God. Thus the God-question plays its role in every philosophy, from antiquity to the present. The way begins with man as the entry-point of the question concerning transcendence. Then this question is shown to be directed toward God. The middle section is dedicated to the arguments concerning divine existence. After the arguments for the reasonableness of belief in God, we deal with the relationship of philosophical thought about God to living faith. Finally, the ways to a search for God carried out in trust, which certain thinkers have followed while recognizing its problems, is outlined.
As well as the name of a virus, a corona is a crown, the pearly glow around the sun in certain astronomical conditions and a poetic form where interlinking lines connect a sequence. It is the perfect name therefore for this new collection of 150 poems by the bestselling poet Malcolm Guite, each one written in response to the Bible’s 150 psalms as they appear in William Coverdale’s timeless translation. The Psalms express every human emotion with disarming honesty, as anger and thankfulness alike are directed at God. All of life is here with its moments of beauty and its times of despair and shame. Like the Psalms themselves, the poems do not avoid the cursing and glorying over the downfall of your enemies, but wrestle honestly with them as we do when we come to say them.
Truth can only be spoken by Truth. There is no other way to say It. Likewise does This Book speak for Itself with flowing Words warmed up to paint vivid pictures like a Dream giving one the extrasensory experiences of seeing as no-seeing and doing as no-doing. So exposed to the shadowy light of ones own sublime Theme does the novel Kind sprout up as a Visionary show and tell to demonstrate who You are. Yes, you as the well fed of fantasy, fiction and self-help yet still hungry and sweating it out for Allegory and Metaphor's rich return. And the You standing upon your formative plateau with nothing above and nothing below faced out in the apocalyptic view of I Just Know There Is More Here Than Meets the Eye. And are you ready to take the leap to greet It.
