The Well-Read Catholic

1. John Donne and the Great Books


Listen Later

Hosts Annie Gardner and Patrick Callahan catch up on what they've been reading (Patrick Rothfuss's The Wise Man's Fear and Mary Wilkins Freeman's The Revolt of "Mother" respectively), discuss John Donne's Holy Sonnet X, and the reasons why we read Great Books. Inter alia, we apply C.S. Lewis' argument on children's stories to YA literature. For those interested in reading more about C.S. Lewis' argument, see https://www.cslewis.com/reading-childrens-stories/.
