S. Lewis, and the founder of the Marion E. Wade Center at Wheaton College, IL, for the study of the works of Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien and other members of the Inklings\u003ci\u003e. \u003c\/i\u003eLess known is that Dr. Kilby was also an apologist in his time for arts, aesthetics and beauty, particularly among Evangelicals. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This collection offers a sampler of the work of Dr. Clyde Kilby on these themes. He writes reflections under four headings: \"Christianity, Art, and Aesthetics\"; \"The Vocation of the Artist\"; \"Faith and the Role of the Imagination\"; and \"Poetry, Literature and the Imagination.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With a unique voice, Kilby writes from a specific literary and philosophical context that relates art and aesthetics with beauty, and all that is embodied in the classics. His work is particularly relevant today as these topics are being embraced by Protestants, Evangelicals, and indeed people of faith from many different traditions. A deeply engaging book for readers who want to look more closely at themes of art, aesthetics, beauty and literature in the context of faith.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eClyde Samuel Kilby\u003c\/b\u003e was an American author and English professor, best known for his scholarship on the \u003ci\u003eInklings\u003c\/i\u003e, especially J.
