First Things Book of the Year award What does the cross of Christ
have to do with the thunderbird? How might the life and work of
Christian writer G. K. Chesterton shed light on our understanding
of North American Indigenous art and history? This unexpected
connection forms the basis of these discerning reflections by art
historian Matthew Milliner. In this fifth volume in the Hansen
Lectureship Series, Milliner appeals to Chesterton's life and
work-including The Everlasting Man, his neglected poetry, his love
for his native England, and his own visits to America-in order to
understand and appreciate both Indigenous art and the complex,
often tragic history of First Nations peoples, especially in the
American Midwest. Based on the annual lecture series hosted at
Wheaton College's Marion E. Wade Center, volumes in the Hansen
Lectureship Series reflect on the imaginative work and lasting
influence of seven British authors: Owen Barfield, G. K.
Chesterton, C. S. Lewis, George MacDonald, Dorothy L. Sayers, J. R.
R. Tolkien, and Charles Williams.
