Acerca de Leaf by Lantern

Fellow Christian artists: join Alicia Pollard in discussing how the eternal Word of God clarifies and beautifies the craft of retelling fairy tales. Whether you are retelling a fairy tale in the form of a novel, play, poem, short story, painting, or opera, the Bible provides the perfect illumination for ethics and aesthetics, morality and mystery. Artists who follow Christ have no better lantern than Scripture for studying and adding leaves to what J.R.R. Tolkien called the "Tree of Tales": the canon of folklore.

Portada del episodio Cupid and Psyche with C.S. Lewis

Cupid and Psyche with C.S. Lewis

Alicia interviews C.S. Lewis (metaphorically) on how to retell a fairy tale in the light of Scripture. Lewis’s masterful novel Till We Have Faces (1956), a retelling of the fairy tale “Cupid and Psyche,” expresses the beauty of the gospel in the language of Greek/pagan mythology. Topics discussed include a little of Lewis’s journey in writing this story and his artistic process; his brilliant interpretation of the unseen husband, the sin of jealousy, and the veil images from the fairy tale; and the intersection of research and craft.
