In mid-twentieth century Britain, the understanding of evil became a tangible reality shaped by the aftermath of total war. This examination focuses on the lives and works of C. S. Lewis, Charles Williams, and J.R.R. Tolkien, members of the Inklings, exploring their representations of evil, English identity, gender, and eroticism in their fiction. Their works in science fiction, horror, and fantasy reflect the moral devastation of the world wars, revealing a complex and diverse philosophical landscape that challenges previous interpretations of their literary contributions.
