Recent and Forthcoming Events.

It is with great pleasure that we announce that, following the death of our President, the distinguished poet John Heath-Stubbs, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, has agreed to become our new President. Dr Williams is doubly suited to the post as both a poet and a theologian - and a longstanding admirer of Charles Williams who has contributed to the Society's Quarterly before now.

The papers from our brilliantly successful Conference at St Hilda's College, Oxford, from July 4th-6th 2008. have now been published in book form by Cambridge Scholars Publishing under the title "Charles Williams and his Contemporaries", edited by Suzanne Bray and Richard Sturch.
