You can quote wiki all you want but the truth is that ‘fantasy’ is a modern definition. Both Tolkien and Lewis said that they wrote about the conflict between good and evil and that was their purpose. You can consider me fringe all you want but modernist criticism is of no interest to me…. rather like revisionist history
modernist revision? of course it is good vs evil, in a fantasy setting. You can basically say all fantasy novels are good vs evil. But they aren’t fantasy. I’m not quoting the wiki. I’m quoting the MILLIONS of sites and people that say it is fantasy, the ground breaker of the genre, in fact.
