This episode Gina Dalfonzo returns to discuss the epic classic The Godfather from 1972 directed by Francis Ford Coppola. Instead of the usual commentary format this episode is a discussion about the film. Joe and Gina discuss why the opening of this movie is probably the best in film history, how gangsters can justify evil behavior while also being devoutly religious, and how the movie depicts family and tradition so beautifully.Find Us Online:RavenCreekSC.com/TheCommentariansFacebook.com/TheCommentariansTwitter.com/CommentariansInstagram.com/CommentariansGina Dalfonzo Online:: Gina's Substack: dearstrangethings.substack.com Gina's Blog:: http://dickensblog.typepad.com

We flip the microphone in this episode towards our guest, Erin Kunkle. Erin has been co-hosting Strong Women with me for three years now. The podcast has grown and has become more than the side project it was when we began. Nothing else in Erin's life has slowed down, so she has made the difficult decision to step out of co-hosting Strong Women. Erin has been and continues to be a strong woman and dear friend in my life, so I wanted to share more of her story with you all.     Maven's Website  Maven Parent Podcast  Dorothy and Jack: The Transforming Friendship of Dorothy L.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, COMMIES!!! This month we're having the Charles Dickens expert herself Gina Dalfonzo on to discuss a movie about Charles Dickens, The Man Who Invented Christmas from 2017. We discuss the life of Dickens, his great works, his not so great works, his inspiration, and how a creative struggles and succeeds when writing and creating great works of art. All this and very little else in this months podcast.

IN THIS REPEAT: The first official show in the occasional series Why Read C.S. Lewis. This one is on THE LAST BATTLE. ----more---- This podcast focuses on The Last Battle and is part of a new series that I "accidentally" began in 2016. It was then that I gathered together a handful of individuals giving a testimony on a particular work by C.S. Lewis. It started with the fact that The Screwtape Letters first came out in weekly installments in 1941 and I wanted to honor this landmark and encourage people to read or re-read that book. Later I realized that it would be fruitful to spotlight EACH of Lewis' works that way. So, I began to record a variety of individuals on a few books that had similar landmark anniversaries last year. This project was delayed and then I realized there was no need to select works based on a particular anniversary of publication. It may seem odd to begin a spotlight on one of the Narnia books by presenting testimonies on The Last Battle. This title was selected initially because last year was the 60th anniversary of its release. So, I already had enough people recorded to release the show and thought why not go ahead and share it! On the show today (in order of appearance) is: Christin Ditchfield Lazo, Dennis Beets, Gina Dalfonzo, Dr. Holly Ordway and Dr. Michael Ward. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Purchase The Last Battle Visit Dr. Michael Ward's Website Visit Christin Ditchfield's Website Visit Memphis C.S.

IN THIS REPEAT: A variety of guests tell about The Great Divorce and why you should read or re-read it.  This podcast, part of an occasional feature to encourage you to read material from Lewis, focuses on one of the shortest works by him (excluding essays, of course). The Great Divorce was first released in weekly installments in The Guardian before being published in 1946. If you have never read this fictional work then you will be pleasantly surprised about how much truth can be learned from the experiences of the characters!

The Long-Awaited, Over Due Easter Episode is here... and since the Eastern Orthodox Church apparently doesn't recognize Easter until May 2nd... I guess it's still early? Anyway, in today's episode I have author and blogger Gina Dalfonzo on to talk about Dickens' The Life of Our Lord, and we end up chatting about A Tale of Two Cities... though I don't mention it in the podcast, I think Tale of Two Cities might qualify as an "Easter Carol" - a great story to read every year at Easter time! I also finish reading The Life of Our Lord and offer up a new book recommendation: "Christmas: A Biography" by Judith Flanders.

In part 2 of this interview, we get Gina's thoughts on how, or if, we should separate a writer's work from his personal life, as well as her insights on how C.S. Lewis respected women and best practices for our own research. And of course, we learn more about the relationship of Sayers and Lewis themselves. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lindsey-scholl/message

Dorothy and Jack is a biography of friendship. Most of us have heard of C.S. Lewis' group of friends called The Inklings, but Lewis enjoyed other significant friendships, including a respectful and jovial connection with Dorothy L. Sayers. In this interview with author Gina Dalfonzo, we hear her elevator pitch for the book, why physical distance in a friendship isn't always a bad thing, and also why we should all be grateful to a man named James Welch. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lindsey-scholl/message

[Something went wrong with the previous file and only half the interview was working--hopefully this new file corrects things--apologies!] This week, we are thrilled to present our very first interview with author Gina Dalfonzo!  Buy her book, Dorothy and Jack: The Transforming Friendship of Dorothy L. Sayers and C.S. Lewis.  It's a very readable and insightful exploration of the deep and frequently overlooked friendship between two great Christian writers.   Next week, we'll have more Till We Have Faces, and guest-starring will be Inklings scholar Sorina Higgins!  Before that happens, you are cordially invited to join her and many other Inklings scholars and fans online at Texmoot this Saturday.   Until next week!

We're chatting with Gina Dalfonzo today about the friendship between two of our favorite literary figures, Dorothy L. Sayers and C.S. Lewis. Because Sayers wasn't officially part of the Inklings–the literary group of friends that included Lewis, Tolkien, and Charles Williams–her friendship with Lewis isn't as celebrated as it should be. But their mutual respect, … Continue reading FoC 147: Men and Women CAN be Friends According to C.S. Lewis and Dorothy Sayers with Gina Dalfonzo →

It's Part 1 of a 2 Part episode focused on A Christmas Carol! In today's episode, I sit down with author Gina Dalfonzo and talk about the theme of redemption in A Christmas Carol. She had a new book published this year called The Gospel in Dickens, and if you're interested in the theology of Charles Dickens you should check it out. So come on in, sit down by the Christmas fire as we discuss some of the theology found in A Christmas Carol. And stay tuned for the next episode - it's dropping on December 14, and we will have a very special guest who comes by to chat more about A Christmas Carol. Note: Religion can be a touchy subject. I know that all my listeners will have different views in their beliefs, and I in no way want to exclude anyone from this episode or the conversation. I'm here to learn and my hope is that this episode gives us all a deeper understanding of the text of A Christmas Carol and the religious beliefs of Charles Dickens that did influence a lot of his writing.

On this week’s episode of The Literary Life, our hosts Angelina, Thomas and Cindy have a special guest on the podcast. Gina Dalfonzo is an author whose work has been featured in First Things, The Atlantic, Christianity Today, The Weekly Standard, National Review, The Gospel Coalition, and more! Gina has written a new book called Dorothy and Jack: The Transforming Friendship of Dorothy L. Sayers and C. S. Lewis which is the topic of discussion on today’s episode. Angelina opens the conversation asking Gina to share how she came to write this book exploring the relationship between Lewis and Sayers. (Affiliate links are used in this content.) Other topics explored in this episode are the following: the influence of Oxford in Dorothy Sayers’ life and work, how Dorothy and Jack finally met one another, Lewis’ personal distaste for detective novels, and his praise for Sayers’ other work. They also talk at length about how Sayers and Lewis support each other in pushing the boundaries of their literary careers.

Benjamin Disraeli There’s always surrender to humiliation and crucifixion, an emptying, before the glory. There’s no way around it. For my own part, I wish there were. Emptiness comes before fullness. We have to empty ourselves of anything that crowds out the life or grace of God in our lives. When we cooperate with the Spirit in this way, we become receptacles of grace. Marlena Graves People of former times had convictions; we moderns only have opinions. And it needs more than a mere opinion to erect a Gothic cathedral. Heinrich Heine When the pioneers of university training for women demanded that women should be admitted to the universities, the cry went up at once: “Why should women want to know about Aristotle?” The answer is NOT that all women wwould be the better for knowing about Aristotle–still less, as Lord Tennyson seemed to think, that they would be more companionable wives for their husbands if they did know about Aristotle–but simply: “What women want as a class is irrelevant. I want to know about Aristotle. It is true that most women care nothing about him, and a great many male undergraduates turn pale and faint at the thought of him–but I, eccentric individual that I am, do want to know about Aristotle, and I submit that there is nothing in my shape or bodily functions which need prevent my knowing about him. Dorothy L. Sayers They Told Me Heraclitus by William Johnson Cory They told me, Heraclitus, they told me you were dead, They brought me bitter news to hear and bitter tears to shed. I wept, as I remembered, how often you and I Had tired the sun with talking and sent him down the sky. And now that thou art lying, my dear old Carian guest, A handful of grey ashes, long long ago at rest, Still are thy pleasant voices, thy nightingales, awake; For Death, he taketh all away, but these he cannot take.

Our current moment of political, social, and even religious upheaval has been isolating in many inexplicable ways. COVID-19 restrictions have eliminate many of our opportunities to build friendships and network with colleagues. Many of us are now working, schooling, and worshiping from home, severing limiting our social circles. As a result, psychologists are reporting higher rates of depression. More than ever, we can see the crucial role community and connectedness contribute to our well being. We need friends.  In this episode of Persuasion, Erin Straza and Hannah Anderson continue their Getting By summer miniseries. Each episode of the series will include a special guest who has something specific to share about how we can get by in life considering the world as it is today. Gina Dalfonzo joins this conversation to help us see the value of nurturing friendships even in the most dire of circumstances. Her latest release form Baker Publishing, The Remarkable Friendship Between C. S. Lewis and Dorothy L. Sayers, provides a template for us. While Lewis is well known due to his Chronicles of Narnia series, Sayers may be relatively unknown. She was a wildly successful mystery novelist, best known for her Lord Peter Wimsey Series. This friendship is set against the backdrop of World War II; the unrest and uncertainty of their time parallels that of ours. By looking at their friendship—developed primarily via letters over a 15 year stretch—provides a picture of how we too could develop or maintain deep friendships even during difficult times. Conversation touches on the powerful way friendships can feed and shape our souls—as well as the trajectory of our very lives. Listen in for dialogue on questions like these as we learn how to get by together. Then continue the conversation on Twitter @PersuasionCAPC or in the CAPC members-only community on Facebook.

Today on The Literary Life Podcast, we begin our new series on C. S. Lewis’ masterpiece, Til We Have Faces. (Affiliate links are used in this content.) This week, Angelina Stanford, Cindy Rollins and Thomas Banks cover the first two chapters and share their observations as they reread this oftentimes challenging book. To help us gain a framework for this novel, Thomas summarizes the myth of Cupid and Psyche, the first telling of which is found in The Golden Ass by Apuleius. Angelina shares about some similarities in this myth with several familiar fairy tales. Cindy points out how Lewis changes some key pieces of the story to make it less mythical and more tethered to historical time and place. In opening the first chapter, Angelina tells her theory about this being a story about a character finding her identity as she looks back on her life. Our hosts talk about the strange nature of the paganism in Glome and also the interesting role of The Fox. They point out many of the classical Greek references that we need to pay attention to as we read this story. Tune in next week for a special interview episode with the author of Dorothy and Jack, Gina Dalfonzo. Following that, we will be back with chapters 3-5 of Till We Have Faces. Commonplace Quotes: A good carpenter is known by his chips. Jonathan Swift All too often, the legends old men tell are closer to the truth than the facts young professors tell. The wildest fairy tales of the ancients are far more realistic than the scientific phantasms imagined by moderns. Hilaire Belloc Earth’s crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes… Elizabeth Barrett Browning Song by John Donne Go and catch a falling star,     Get with child a mandrake root, Tell me where all past years are,     Or who cleft the devil’s foot, Teach me to hear mermaids singing, Or to keep off envy’s stinging,             And find             What wind Serves to advance an honest mind. If thou be’st born to strange sights,     Things invisible to see, Ride ten thousand days and nights,     Till age snow white hairs on thee, Thou, when thou return’st, wilt tell me, All strange wonders that befell thee,             And swear,             No where Lives a woman true, and fair. If thou find’st one, let me know,     Such a pilgrimage were sweet; Yet do not, I would not go,     Though at next door we might meet; Though she were true, when you met her, And last, till you write your letter,             Yet she             Will be False, ere I come, to two, or three.

A CHRISTMAS CAROLThe book A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens has never been out of print—and it illustrates why telling a good story is often the best way to communicate our beliefs. Gina Dalfonzo, editor of Dickensblog, states that A Christmas Carol is a book that “has everything: great sorrow and great joy, corruption and redemption, poverty and pain, hope and love.” And “it expresses the deep belief that even the worst person can change for the better.”CHARITY IN THE UKPremier.org.uk reports that people across the United Kingdom have been donating to local food banks after the recent election results. Christian charity The Trussell Trust said that it has seen a surge in drop offs in food donations since the Conservatives won a landslide victory.The charity is urging the government to take action to help those who are living in poverty.CELEBRATING CHRISTMASAmerican contemporary Christian singer Phil Wickham released his second holiday album this year titled Christmas, and, according to The Christian Post, he wants to keep the wonder of the season alive by sharing the light of Jesus amid life's trials.

One hundred and seventy-four years ago, a British writer was horrified at the conditions under which children were made to labor in tin mines. He decided to write a pamphlet exposing these conditions. His intended title: “An Appeal to the People of England on Behalf of the Poor Man's Child.” Thank heavens the writer changed his mind. Instead of a pamphlet, he decided to write a novel making the same points. It's filled with colorful characters—including an old man who goes about snarling “Bah, Humbug!” Those two little words instantly reveal what book I'm talking about: “A Christmas Carol,” by the immortal Charles Dickens. The book has never been out of print—and it illustrates why telling a good story is often the best way to communicate our beliefs. Why does “A Christmas Carol” still resonate today? For the answer, I went to my friend Gina Dalfonzo, editor of Dickensblog. She told me “A Christmas Carol “is a book that “has everything: great sorrow and great joy, corruption and redemption, poverty and pain, hope and love.” And “it expresses the deep belief that even the worst person can change for the better.” “A Christmas Carol” is not merely a magnificent story, and its message is not confined to a “social gospel” teaching: Dickens points directly to Christ throughout. For example, Scrooge's nephew, Fred, suggests that perhaps nothing about Christmas can be “apart from the veneration due to its sacred name and origin.” And Tiny Tim expresses the hope that when people saw his lameness, “It might be pleasant to them to remember upon Christmas Day, who made lame beggars walk and blind men see.” This is, Gina points out, “a wonderful example of the biblical idea of God's strength being made perfect in our weakness.” Dickens' classic shoots down the idea—prevalent in some Christian circles—that reading novels is a waste of time. They seem to forget that Jesus Himself was a master storyteller. For instance, He didn't just say, “Come to the aid of those who need help.” Instead, He told a vivid story about a Samaritan who rescues a wounded man. Chuck Colson once said that when it came to learning moral lessons, he was “much more impressed by profound works of fiction than by abstract theological discourses.” Scenes from some of the greatest stories ever told, he said, “have etched moral truths deeply into my soul. Their characters and lessons are so vivid I can't forget them.” And that is likely why so many of us will never forget the moral truths told through Ebenezer Scrooge, Fezziwig, Tiny Tim, and all the other memorable characters that populate Dickens' great Victorian tale. It's why we reject pamphlets that say, “Be nice to the needy” in favor of a good strong character bellowing, “Are there no prisons? [Are there no] workhouses?” Or the ghost of Scrooge's partner, Jacob Marley, howling, “Mankind was my business!”  Dickens' Christmas classic is more popular than ever. There's a new film about how he came to write “A Christmas Carol,” called “The Man Who Invented Christmas.” And a writer named Samantha Silva has just published a novel titled “Mr. Dickens and His Carol.” I do hope you'll take time out to read, or re-read, the original, or read it aloud to your family. Who knows what great good may come of it? And so I end this piece by saying—and you probably knew it was coming—“God bless us, everyone.”
