George MacDonald (1823-1905)

LéONIE CALDECOTT

C.S. Lewis regarded the Scottish Congregational minister, George MacDonald, as his “master”, and especially a master of the mythopoeic art, of the kind of writing that “gets under our skin, hits us at a level deeper than our thoughts or even our passions, troubles oldest certainties till all questions are reopened, and in general shocks us more fully awake than we are for most of our lives.” MacDonald, says Lewis, converted, even baptized, his Romantic imagination, and prepared him for conversion to Christianity.
