Phantastes

Autor George Macdonald Ilustrat de Arthur Hughes, Zach Fink
en Limba Engleză Hardback – iun 2011
The classic fantasy that influenced C. S. Lewis and Tolkien, considered one of George MacDonald's most important works, is the story of the young man, Anodos, and his adventures in fairyland which ultimately reveal the human condition. "I write, not for children," wrote George MacDonald, "but for the child-like, whether they be of five, or fifty, or seventy-five." All-at-once written with an innocent whimsy and soulful yearning, the heart of Anodos' journey through fairyland reveals a spiritual quest that requires a surrender of the self. MacDonald's fantasy novel as well as his other works have had major influence on many authors who considered him their mentor:
C. S. Lewis said, "I have never concealed the fact that I regarded him as my master; indeed I fancy I have never written a book in which I did not quote from him."
J. R. R. Tolkien called his fairy tales "stories of power and beauty."
Madeleine L'Engle said, "Surely, George MacDonald is the grandfather of us all--all of us who struggle to come to terms with truth through fantasy."

Notă biografică

George MacDonald (10 December 1824-18 September 1905) was a Scottish writer, poet and Christian minister. The son of a farming family in Aberdeenshire, he completed a professor at King's College London. Starting his career as a Congregationalist minister, he resigned after two years when his unconventional views contended irreconcilably with those of his followers. He was a leading figure in the field of modern fantasy literature and the mentor of fellow writer Lewis Carroll. In addition to his fairy tales, MacDonald wrote some works of Christian beliefs, including several collections of sermons. He was not limited to writing theology. He also wrote and is more well-known for, his fantasy work. Books like Phantastes, The Princess and the Goblin and The Golden Key are predecessors to modern fantasy. His stories are Christian theories bound in the clothing of myth and legend. His writings have been quoted as a major literary influence by many notable authors including Lewis Carroll, W.H. Auden, Mark Twain, etc.
