Episode 10: Literary Hell
from The Christian Humanist Podcast Hosted by Michial Farmer
Nathan Gilmour moderates a discussion of how life-after-death, especially the unpleasant sort, appears in literary texts, beginning in Classical poetry, moving through a healthy dose of medieval poetry, and finishing with a consideration of some interesting twentieth-century visions of Hell. Among the texts and authors we discuss are Homer, Virgil, Beowulf, Anglo-Saxon homilies, Guthlac, Genesis B from the Junius Manuscript, Dante, Langland, Gower, Milton, C.S. Lewis, and Sartre.
