The Inklings

The Inklings were an informal literary group, mainly of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Owen Barfield, Hugo Dyson, Nevill Coghill, and Charles Williams. The group would often meet on Thursdays and Tuesdays between 1930 and 1949, sometimes at the Oxford pub of The Eagle and the Child and at other times at Lewis' rooms in Magdalen College, to read and criticize each member's literary work-in-progress. Tolkien's son Christopher was involved for a short time. 
Among notable novels first read to The Inklings were The Lord of the Rings, and Lewis's Out of the Silent Planet. The group was based out of the University of Oxford, England, as most of its members were academics there. It met between the 1930s and the 1960s.
