Description
45 years ago, Owen Barfield gave a lecture in California, on his life-long theme of the evolution of consciousness.
Today, his grandson reminds us of the clarion call by the First and Last Inkling towards the rediscovery of meaning – within our own lives, thinking, and humanity itself.
In this, the centenary year of the publication of the first Inkling fantasy novel – Barfield’s The Silver Trumpet – we celebrate the ways in which C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien were influenced by their fellow Inkling, friend, provocateur, collaborator, and walking companion.
