Re-Enchantment and Ecological Recovery
In this episode, Erik Jampa discusses the notion of ecological 'recovery,' and the ways that stories can draw us deeper into enchantment or deeper into delusion. With reference to J.R.R. Tolkien's seminal essay 'On Fairy-Stories,' Erik talks about the three functions of 'fairy-stories' - Recovery, Escape, and Consolation - and how the process of enchantment can help us recover a sense of what it means to be human in a more-than-human world.
