Great Lives: Suzannah Lipscomb on CS Lewis

Series 25, episode 5

Born in Northern Ireland, CS Lewis's mother died when he was a child, and his university career was delayed so he could go off and fight in the Great War. Historian Suzannah Lipscomb says she finds the author's writings deeply moving, but accepts that he was not a feminist in any way. Also offering his views on Lewis's attitude to women - and other issues - is Malcolm Guite. Presented by Matthew Parris. First aired in 2017
