Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien wrote some of the twentieth century’s most beloved works of literature, including robust defenses of the Christian faith. Today, I want to share an exclusive and free video series with you that considers Lewis and Tolkien in the context of their membership in the Inklings—an informal professor-student literary group at Oxford in the 1930s and 40s. You can receive instant access to this free video series about the Inklings by using this secure link now: [( C.S. Lewis is best known for his Narnia books—such as The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe—and his apologetics, including Mere Christianity. Indeed, Lewis is one of the greatest Christian apologists of all time. J.R.R. Tolkien’s most renowned works are The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy. That both were men of genius is indisputable. Both men also devoted countless hours to honing their craft. This included subjecting their writing to the scrutiny of their fellow Inklings, who met regularly for conversation and to read aloud from and discuss their current work. The Inklings are a fascinating topic of study, which is why we’ve created a free online video series for you to enjoy. The video series, titled “The Inklings,” was filmed on the Hillsdale College campus. It examines the ideas that bound the Inklings, what they accomplished, and the continuing importance of their works today—with a special focus on Lewis and Tolkien. You can use the secure link below to receive instant access to “The Inklings” free video series: [( Lewis and Tolkien thought the Inklings’ meetings contributed significantly to their literary success. As models of civil discussion and intelligent debate, they stand in stark contrast to today’s “cancel culture.” The Inklings, are therefore, worth studying not only for their great literary achievements but also because they exemplify the free speech that is essential to the pursuit of truth. That’s why Hillsdale College created a free online video series on the Inklings. I hope you’ll use the secure link above and start watching it today. Warm regards, Larry P. Arnn President, Hillsdale College Pursuing Truth and Defending Liberty Since 1844 P.S. C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien met regularly with an informal literary group named the Inklings.
