The Enchantment of Innocence: The Resilient World of Winnie-the-Pooh

On 14 October 1926, the first of A.A. Milne's (1882-1956) two children's books about the stuffed bear Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends was published. To mark this centenary, Dr. Wim Tigges gives a lecture on the stories and Milne's distinctive use of language.
