The Medieval Mind of Lewis with Dr. Jason Baxter
Dr. Jason Baxter discusses how Great Books influenced the mind of Lewis.
Dr. Baxter teachers Great Books at the University of Notre Dame. He writes on the relevance of medieval thought and literature, and, especially, medieval theology and Dante. In his popular writing and lectures, he talks about the arts, travel and literature, technology and humanism, science and culture, and modernity in light of the ancient world. He is the author of numerous books, including An Introduction to Christian Mysticism, The Infinite Beauty of the World: Dante's Encyclopedia and the Names of God, Falling Inward: Humanities in the Age of Technology, A Beginner’s Guide to Dante’s Divine Comedy, and, most recently, The Medieval Mind of CS Lewis: How Great Books Shaped a Great Mind.

Avis
Captivating and wonderful!
So I found this podcast about a month ago, trying to find something to listen to instead of music, and BOY did this not disappoint!! Daniel and Phil are amazing hosts, I love the interactions and witty banter and the way they share these books and their experiences and opinions. It’s really lovely to have such a take as they do on Narnia, and I learn things every time. It’s completely drawn me back into C. S. Lewis’ work and I could not be happier about it because it’s close to my heart, and revisiting it again is just a breath of fresh air. I really highly recommend this podcast, it’s wonderful and I can’t wait for the rest!
