Listen "CT 2023: "How Eustace Became a Man" by Matt Miller"
Episode Synopsis
One of the most memorable characters in C. S. Lewis’s The Chronicles of Narnia is a “priggish” boy named Eustace Clarence Scrubb, a boy whose understanding of the world and of himself has been shaped – or, rather, misshapen – by his “modern education.” But when suddenly swept into Narnia, Eustace’s adventures and transformative encounter with Aslan profoundly change the course of his life, leading him to attain and typify the marks of true manhood as Lewis understands them. This seminar will hold key moments of Eustace’s journey under the light of what Lewis says elsewhere about modern education, sex and gender, and divine grace, with the goal of furnishing us with a Lewisian vision of manhood that is as countercultural now as it was in Lewis's day.
