Transition & Vocation: George MacDonald for Every Generation | Amanda Vernon

Welcome to Episode 3 in our series George MacDonald for Every Generation.

 

 

This episode features a new friend to the Plunge, Amanda B. Vernon. Amanda is winsom, jolly, hopeful, and quite learned. We discuss the transition of young adults to discovering their vocation, purpose and meaning in life. In particular, how young people today are moving toward what she calls the beginning of the end of the post-critique, post-critical era. 

 

 

Amanda is a writer, teacher, and academic working at the intersection of 19th-century literature and theology. She is a teaching fellow at the University of Tübingen in Germany, and an honorary junior fellow of the University of Buckingham in the UK. Her work has been published in Victorian Review and Victorians. She is co-editor with Daniel Gabelman of Unsaying the Commonplace: George MacDonald and the Critique of Victorian Convention.
