À propos de cet audio

The Discarded Image paints a lucid picture of the medieval worldview, providing the historical and cultural background to the literature of the middle ages and renaissance. It describes the 'image' discarded by later years as "the medieval synthesis itself, the whole organization of their theology, science, and history into a single, complex, harmonious mental model of the universe". This, Lewis' last book, has been hailed as "the final memorial to the work of a great scholar and teacher and a wise and noble mind".

This is a brilliant book with CS Lewis signature clarity and scholarship. It dispels many stereotypes of the Middle Ages. The narration is very poor and I couldn't finish the book: the narrator reads far too quickly with see-saw intonation that does disservice to the text: when I slowed it the intonation was still too annoying to be able to continue listening.

Great book- bad narration
