George MacDonald – Phantastes
Considered by some to be the father of modern fantasy writing, MacDonald’s writings are nothing if not original. His fiction had profound implications for the functioning of the conscious and the unconscious mind long before Freud and Jung elaborated on the subject, but the overriding concern of his fiction is man’s relations with God and the predominance of divine presence over divine providence. Phantastes relates a voyage through faerie land, or rather through the unconscious mind of man, and the journey ends with knowledge of God and the self.
