So, what did Tolkien really think of Narnia? A presentation by Dr. Holly Ordway addresses the question – the first in a series of keynote lectures uploaded to a new YouTube channel featuring content from The Undiscovered C.S. Lewis Conference hosted on campus last fall. The event was the largest academic conference on Lewis in history (no exaggeration!).
Be sure to subscribe to the channel and stay tuned for other stimulating keynote lectures that will be added over the course of the next few weeks, one per week. You can also help promote it by sharing the channel, liking the video, and sharing the video.
