#171 // Dr. Louis Markos | The Deeper Meaning In C.S. Lewis's Ransom Trilogy (Space Trilogy)

from Orthodoxy · host Schmitt Media Company LLC

In this episode I talked with Dr. Louis Markos from Houston Christian University. Dr. Markos is the author of many books including On the Shoulder of Hobbits: The Road to Virtue with Tolkien and Lewis, From Aristotle to Christ: How Aristotelian Thought Clarified the Christian Faith, and Restoring Beauty: The Good, the True, and the Beautiful in the Writings of C.S. Lewis. In our conversation we discussed C.S. Lewis’s Ransom Trilogy. We talked about the medieval cosmology that must be understood before one reads the Ransom Trilogy, why Lewis thought language was central to human living, and the necessity of violence in the Christian faith. I hope you enjoy!
