Lewis \u0026 J.R.R. Tolkien","description":"J.R.R.Tolkien's \"The Lord of the Rings\", it has long been recognized, was shaped and undergirded by his Christian beliefs. But he was not the only writer of fantasy to have a close relationship between his faith and his fiction. This book is a study of such relationships in four writers: Tolkien himself, his friends C.S. Lewis and Charles Williams, and, from an earlier generation, George MacDonald. It seeks to look at their use of other worlds and other beings; at their attitudes towards 'escapism'; at the presence of symbolism and myth in their writings; at the themes and ideas they had in common; and at the extent to which their fiction has a value for Christian apologetics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Sturch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3905703041\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783905703047\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Walking Tree Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/15\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 148\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.32d","brand":"Richard Sturch","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44126060314879,"sku":"9783905703047","price":21.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6f3a1e28-1cdd-4f04-8599-0a0608629ceb.jpg?v=1687446061","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/four-christian-fantasists-a-study-richard-sturch-9783905703047","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
