S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, and Their Circle"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>In the early decades of the 20th century, C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, and several of their friends and colleagues at Oxford University began meeting together to share and discuss their writing. Some were novelists, poets, philosophers, and scholars, while others were simply there to revel in language, stories, and ideas. They were certainly not the first men to join a college social club, nor were they the first writers to look to their peers for advice and encouragement. But the group these men created has become a notable chapter in modern literary history, producing some of the greatest stories in Western literature. Meet the Inklings.<\/p>\n<p>The Inklings went through several transformations over the course of the 1920s and 1930s. In The Inklings: C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, and Their Circle, you\u2019ll meet the group in its many forms, with a special focus on the interwar years. Across 12 lectures, author and editor Dr. S\u00f8rina Higgins will introduce you to the Inklings and immerse you in their world as they conversed, theorized, collaborated, and debated. You\u2019ll see how their friendship fueled their writing, including some of the most beloved works of imaginative fiction ever created. And for those who want to further explore the works that emerged from this collaboration, each lecture ends with a suggested story or full-length book for you to experience, equipped with your knowledge of the Inklings and their influences.<\/p>\n<p>While you will spend plenty of time with the Inklings\u2019 most famous members, you\u2019ll also meet the lesser-known figures who helped make the Inklings both a social hub and an intellectual brotherhood. Writing is often seen as a solitary activity, yet, as you\u2019ll discover, some of the best work created by these authors was the result not of lone genius but of the encouragement, critique, opposition, and collaboration of their friends and colleagues.<\/p>\n<h3>The Inklings: C.
