Imagination Redeemed Online - Holly Ordway - Tolkien and the Function of Fantasy

Why is The Lord of the Rings so popular, both as a book and as films? Is fantasy nothing but a silly escape from reality? Or are there deeper reasons why fantasy – and imaginative narratives in general – are so appealing? In this talk, Dr Holly Ordway will draw on Tolkien’s insights into the genre in order to explore the question of what fantasy is, how it works, and why it matters. *** The Anselm Society's mission is a renaissance of the Christian imagination. We help churches re-learn how to disciple and work alongside artists. Artists to re-learn how to be a part of the church, integrating excellence of both craft and faith. And everyone else to burn with a desire to see the Kingdom with the same enchanted eyes with which they see Narnia and Middle Earth.
