…on a night of rain Frodo smelled a sweet fragrance on the air and heard the sound of singing that came over the water. And then it seemed to him that as in his dream in the house of Bombadil, the grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a fair green country under a swift sunrise.

More "Don't Worry". In addition to the already posted introduction to the TDI, I'm going to post my comments about the Preface to the book. That is a sort of "starting" of the study I guess, but I'll wait a while before actually doing chapter 1 which will be the "real" start of the study:-)

My Preface comments, while depending on the text of the preface to some degree, also allows for some "wandering" discussion too, so I thought that might be a nice way to lead gently into the more "book's actual text" oriented discussion of the formal chapters. And I think my comments about the Preface set the tone for one of the aspects I want to develop during the study -- ie, the idea of looking for aspects in Lewis' other writings that reflect the things he talks about in TDI.

So girlfreddy -- be sure to let me know (in this thread or by pm) when you receive your copy of the book and I'll dive into the chapter stuff sometime after that.

How would telling people to be nice to one another get a man crucified? What government would execute Mister Rogers or Captain Kangaroo?
