Boethius' Consolation of Philosophy is another literary kind of follow-up.

I might also encourage, and correct me if I'm wrong about this, Janice, I remember Peter

Peter Hawkins, talking in the years that we were doing that about the movie, What Dreams May Come.

Kind of a riff.

It's a secular riff.

I wouldn't argue it's a great movie, but there's some interesting kind of playoffs if you're interested in a kind of visual read of some of the matters here.

So that would be some of my suggestions.

Yes.

That was when Katherine Kirby Fulton was with us, and we all hiked down there for that event.

Nice.

Might I add, Junius, I think Paralandra is worth putting in this in vain as well, in part because it's a part of a cosmic trilogy.

And my students, all of the students were required to give oral presentations and

the student who had the great dance in the last chapter, had us do a class liturgical reading of the Blessed Be He's.

And I was just moved to no end to do that with my students as a kind of concluding act, not only for that text, but for the semester.

And I said, this is a foretaste of what heaven is all about.

And so Lewis always ties the beginning to the end, as Dante does.

And I think that's appropriate there.

might also signal as well, because Junius and I were influenced so deeply by Peter Hawkins.

Peter Hawkins's book, which is called Dante's Testaments, Essays in Scriptural Imagination, is a fantastically brilliant read.

I didn't bring up the chapter that he writes about Ovid and the metamorphosis, but I think that single chapter is worth one of the greatest Dante prizes ever.
