When a Heart is Really Alive: George MacDonald and the Prophetic Imagination

The Marion E. Wade Center at Wheaton College presents "When A Heart Is Really Alive: George MacDonald and the Prophetic Imagination," a lecture by Malcolm Guite on Thursday, May 30, 2024 at 7:00 PM in Armerding Concert Hall. This lecture will explore how George MacDonald's Fantasy writing not only created an entire new literary genre and inspired writers like C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, but also how the living, numinous symbols and stories he created continue to speak powerfully and prophetically into our own cultural crisis two hundred years after he was born. Malcolm Guite is a poet and priest, and Life Fellow of Girton College, Cambridge. He lives in Norfolk, England, and lectures widely in England and North America on Theology and Literature. His books include Sounding the Seasons: Seventy Sonnets for the Christian Year (Canterbury, 2012); The Singing Bowl: Collected Poems (Canterbury, 2013); Parable and Paradox (Canterbury, 2016); Mariner: A Voyage with Samuel Taylor Coleridge (Hodder, 2017); After Prayer (Canterbury, 2019); The Word Within the Words (DLT, 2021); and Lifting The Veil (Canterbury, 2022). In 2023 he was awarded the Archbishop Lanfranc Medal for Education and Scholarship by the Archbishop of Canterbury. He has a YouTube series called ‘A Spell in the Library’ at    / malcolmguitespell  . This event is sponsored by the Muriel Fuller Endowment for the Imagination and the Arts.
