## In this episode

A short class introduction framing two middle Chronicles at once: The Silver Chair’s underworld of signs and enchantment, and The Horse and His Boy’s Calormene roads of identity and providence. From The Fiction and Philosophy of C.S. Lewis (summer 2024), Dr. Andrew Snyder (professor of philosophy and theology) orients listeners before the full lectures, including Platonic “knowledge by recovery” and the disciplined fight to keep facing Deep Heaven on a silent planet.
