Film of G.K. Chesterton at Worcester College
Description:
You can now buy all four of the recorded speeches of GK Chesterton on CD or as individual MP3 downloads at CDBaby: http://cdbaby.com/cd/gkchesterton This is actual film footage in it's entirety of G.K. Chesterton being made an honorary Holy Cross Crusader by Worcester College on May 1st, 1931. I'm sorry for the poor quality, but I had to purchase this footage from the archives of an English film company, and I couldn't afford the high quality version (more than $500). I have some stills of the higher quality version however, and have interjected a couple of them into the film where there were missing frames. G.K. Chesterton was an author and journalist during the early part of the 20th century. He is best known for his "Father Brown" stories, a novel called "The Man Who Was Thursday", and a Christian view of the history of ancient art, culture, religion, and anthropology called "The Everlasting Man". The latter was the book C.S. Lewis said helped him the most in his own spiritual studies.

![]() | Hear the Voice of Hilaire Belloc Hilaire Belloc was a close friend of GK Chesterton. Together they founded a weekly political newspaper called "The New Witness" in which Gilbert's brother, Cecil, also played a big part. GB Shaw often jokingly referred to it as "the Chesterbelloc". The two were strong propagators of distributism, a medieval, anti-capitalist, and anti-Fabian socialist philosophy. But perhaps Chesterton and Belloc are best remembered today by Christians since they did much to promulgate the Catholic faith ... |

The argument is this, that the differences between a man and a woman are at the best so obstinate and exasperating that they practically cannot be got over unless there is an atmosphere of exaggerated tenderness and mutual interest. To put the matter ... |

Not a whole lot is known about Hugo by the general public because he wasn't a prolific writer. But it was the conversation and general way of life presented by Dyson, together with JRR Tolkien, that had the biggest impact on Lewis' conversion to Christianity. It seems to me from reading the letters of Jack that, Warnie Lewis, (Jack's older brother) seemed to like Dyson best of all the Inklings. Hugo Dyson was generally ... |
