Novelist, writer of fantastic literature, poet, lecturer, preacher, George MacDonald was a great Victorian ranked in his time alongside such writers as Dickens, Thackeray, William Morris, Charles Kingsley, and Thomas Carlyle. Though almost forgotten in the more secular age that followed his death, MacDonald's fantastic work nevertheless inspired C.S. Lewis, and enjoyed a revival with the new interest in fantasy literature in the 1970s. MacDonald's fiction belongs not only to modern fantasy, however, but to the whole tradition of supernatural literature from Greek myth to Dante, Spenser, Blake and German Romantic fairy tale-all, like him, now neglected. He is a great visionary writer who still speaks to us in profound ways.
