Giving the people what they wanted.. right?!
No, but seriously, had so much fun writing this paper and the excuse it gave me to re-read revolutions in Narnia, as well as, better yet, the excuse to reread the Declaration (many times) and The Lion and Caspian as I worked on this.
Step 1 - issue a CFP stressing the Declaration (because America 250).
Step 2 - love Lewis and Narnia.
Step 3 - Dr. Sarah Waters delivering a Declaration reading of Lion and Prince Caspian.
Only at @ciceroniansoc.

The last few days, I and some of our @SterlingCLife Literature students have been at the @ciceroniansoc conference at Creighton. Yesterday I had the pleasure of speaking on a panel on C.S. Lewis & the world, where I talked about Lewis, the Declaration of Independence, and Narnia.

Please do consider submitting an abstract or, students, a full mini paper for our C.S. Lewis Conference which takes Lewis's statement that there are "no ordinary people" as its focus. Submissions are due at 12pm (Central Time) *this* Friday (Feb 6). CFP and further details below.
Reminder! Abstracts are due Friday at midday, (central time). I'm certain that you, yes *you* reading this post are, in fact, no ordinary sort of person. We'd love you to join us as we consider Lewis' bold declaration in Weight of Glory that there are, indeed, no ordinary people.

Today was #KansasDay, and in the midst of the snow, frigid temperatures, and a heavy teaching day, I celebrated with snatches of memories of the last year or so, and was reminded again how glad I am to call this state home. No place like it, so they say (spoiler, they're right).

A pleasure to talk about C.S. Lewis, his Belfast beginnings, Narnia, and how much Lewis valued his readers for a special episode on Lewis and the Mourne Mountains for the @nationaltrust podcast, Wild Tales "The Man, The Book and The Mountains."

An episode long in the brewing (recorded in the summer of '24, back when I was Lecturer at the University of Buckingham) and thrilled it is now out for you all to enjoy. youtu.be/_Smzdtsh_tM?si=2SPEβ¦

Contributing to this was especially exciting because the first time I went to NI was to camp and hike in the Mourne Mountains. (On the way I stopped in to visit Lewis sites but it was in years before this was a thing, and special art installations were still in bubble wrap!).
