[close] The original Inklings were a literary set in Oxford whose members comprised of lecturers and academics from the University of Oxford between the 1930s up until 1950. Most notable among these were CS Lewis, JRR Tolkien, Charles Williams, and Owen Barfield. The Inklings of GoodReads is a copy-cat group for those who may have an interest in: philosophy, theology, the classics [Homer, Virgil, Sophocles etc] folklore (esp. Nordic or European, but not exclusivly!), mythology and ancient legend [from Greek mythology to Eastern]; and connected subjects and areas of reading. The creator and moderator of this group is a philosopher of religion [with a paticular interest in philosophical theology] and will therefore be mostly reading books to that end, however all book and discussions in any area/related area to the topics mentioned above are welcomed. The original Inklings, Lewis and Tolkien notwithstanding, was not a religous group-neither is this one.
