 | | The Inklings was a group of kindred spirits who met weekly in Lewis’s rooms at Magdalen, “theoretically to talk about literature, but in fact nearly always to talk about something better. |
 | | Some of the Inklings over the years were Warren H. Lewis, Owen Barfield, J. Tolkien, Nevill Coghill, Charles Williams, Gervase Mathew, Colin Hardie, Hugo Dyson, Dr. Robert Havard, Canon Adam Fox, and Commander Dundas-Grant. |
 | | And there was also another ritual gathering, subsidiary to the Inklings proper: the same company used to meet for an hour or so before lunch every Tuesday at The Eagle and Child in St. Giles’, better known as the Bird and Baby.” |
