Episode 11: CHESTERTON AROUND THE WORLD SERIES: "Chesterton and France"

from Speaking about Chesterton · host readinggkchesterton

Welcome to Speaking About Chesterton. In this episode of our Series Chesterton around the world, Dr. Dermot Quinn and I will speak about Chesterton and France. We will discuss Chesterton’s writings and thoughts of France and the French people. France was the first country he visited as a young man in 1892 with his father at the age of 18. After this first trip, he writes that he was “grateful for seeing France as a young man as a traveler and not as a tourist.” He visited again in 1908, and in 1935 with his wife Frances and with Dorothy Collins
