The Burr in the Burgh

I have been doing a bit of research lately for a three-part presentation I'm doing next week in St. Louis for 1200 teenagers. My topic is fantasy lit and movies. I will incorporate everything from sci-fi to horror to comic book superheroes to what I'd call fantasy proper: Narnia, Lord of the Rings, and Harry Potter.

And I came across this very helpful article by Dr. Gene Edward Veith entitled: Good Fantasy and Bad Fantasy. I recommend it to you highly. It is a pdf file, so be alert to that before you click on it. I'm sure you could find it in html on the net.
