Owen Barfield: The First & Last Inkling | Introductory Episode

Welcome to our newest series.

Owen Barfield: The First & Last Inkling.

 

 

This episode provides a brief introduction to Barfield's life and work. In the weeks to come, we will host thoughtful conversations with 10 different guests, each providing a unique perspective on Barfield's philosophy, spirituality, and the imagination.

 

 

We will discuss the influence of Rudolf Steiner on Barfield, the interaction between C.S. Lewis and Barfield (dubbed "The Great War"), and Barfield's understanding of the evolution of consciousness. No person is complete without the full integration of reason and imagination, and Barfield provides ample evidence for this reality, as well as meaningful guidance for humanity's participation in a transcendent future.
