The Collected Poems of CS Lewis by CS Lewis Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Collected Poems of C. S. Lewis by C.S. Lewis The Collected Poems of C. S. Lewis by C.S. Lewis. Lewis, C.S. The Collected Poems of C.S. Lewis. Ed. Walter Hooper. London: Fount Publications [HarperCollins Publishers], 1994. 263 pp. ISBN 0-00-627833-7. Reviewed by Nancy-Lou Patterson. [This review originally appeared as “Athens, Troy, Jerusalem” in Mythlore 20.4 (#78) (1995): 60.] The latest product of the Editor’s ceaseless industry, this volume includes the entire contents of Lewis’s Poems (1964), Spirits in Bondage (1919), and A Miscelleny of additional poems (copyrighted 1986 and 1994) of which (as was the case with the first edition of the works in the 1964 volume), many have been published before but not collected, and some appear in print for the first time. And will, of course, be welcome to readers of Lewis, whether they have already managed to acquire Poems or Spirits in Bondage or not. In addition to the poems, there are not only Hooper’s original introduction to Poems (1964) but a new Introduction by him, discussing the contents of all three sections including the Miscellany, and—deliciously sharp-tongued—an “Introductory Letter” (1963) by Lewis himself, which was, Hooper says, to have accompanied “a volume to be called Young King Cole, and Other Pieces” (xvi). Readers may recall that Lewis also wrote four long poems, of which only the first was published in his lifetime: Dymer (1926), Launcelot , the Nameless Isle , and The Queen of Drum . The four were published with a Preface by the editor Walter Hooper, as Narrative Poems (1969), and this has been published again as a companion volume without apparent revisions under the same title, in the same format and date as The Collected Poems of C.S, Lewis , that is, in 1994. Whether we will eventually see more poems by Lewis previously published but not yet collected, or not yet published, only Walter Hooper knows, but I suspect that if there are any out there we will! Now, to the Poems (1994). Lewis scholars, including Joe R. Christopher, have discussed Lewis’s poetry to very useful effect, and I won’t presume to improve upon their efforts. He was a good poet, if not a great one, and he knew it. In his witty (if fundamentally defensive) “Introductory Letter,” Lewis writes, “It is of course just possible that some one critic who reads this … may be concerned not at all with me as a person or a type and degree of my failure or success” (xxi). A daunting challenge, and one I haven’t the hubris to undertake, except to say that all the poems, including those in the Miscellany, are competent. Many are memorable (ditto), And some are wonderful, But few, at least for me, reach the level of Lewis’s greatest prose, where in line after line, wonder flashes through mind and body, coursing along the veins like lightening. I will quote, in spite of this, some lines that have afforded this stab of wonder to me. From the Poems , I would select (among others, of course), “A Confession,” which concludes: …peacocks, honey, the Great Wall, Aldeberan, Silver weirs, new-cut grass, wave on the beach, hard gem, The shape of horse and woman; Athens, Troy Jerusalem. (15) From Spirits in Bondage , I would chose these lines from “Death in Battle”: a Country of Dreams! Beyond the tide of the ocean, hidden and sunk away, Out of the sound of battles, near to the end of day, Full of dim woods and streams, (223) And from the Miscellany , the astonishing “Findlay Avenue” (circa 1950), which expresses, more personally than in anything Lewis ever wrote elsewhere, that odd combination of sensitivity toward, and separation from, women, despite his close, almost life-long contact with them, that Lewis only finally overcame in his late marriage which was, though he did not know it when he wrote this poem, soon to befall him: What do they do? Their families have all gone hence, Grow up. The whole long avenue exhales the sense. Of absent husbands, housework done, uncounted hours … Almost an eerie rashness to possess a wife. And house that go with living with their different life. For ever inaccessible to us, all day; (251-52) Hooper sensitively closes this volume with the next and last poem, the Epitaph Lewis composed for, and caused to be carved upon, the tombstone of Helen Joy Davidman Lewis. This edition, despite its rash of typos, serves a very useful function, in making Lewis’s poetry available to readers in the 1990s, and it certainly recommended. The Making of C. S. Lewis: From Atheist to Apologist. At the end of World War I, young C. S. Lewis was a devout atheist about to begin his studies at Oxford. In the three decades that followed, he would establish himself as one of the most influential writers and scholars of modern times, undergoing a radical conversion to Christianity that would transform his life and his work. Scholar Harry Lee Poe unfolds these watershed years in Lewis’s life, offering readers a unique perspective on his conversion, his friendships with well-known Christians such as J. R. R. Tolkien and Dorothy L. Sayers, and his development from an opponent of Christianity to one of its most ardent defenders. Author: Harry Lee Poe (PhD, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) serves as the Charles Colson University Professor of Faith and Culture at Union University, where he has taught a course on C. S. Lewis for over fifteen years. He is the author of The Inklings of Oxford and C. S. Lewis Remembered , as well as numerous articles. Poe hosts regular Inklings Weekend retreats and is a speaker on Lewis at major libraries worldwide. Product Details.

Endorsements. “Detailed and fluent, this second volume of Poe’s trilogy is a triple helix of biography, literary criticism, and spiritual portraiture that will reward any reader, from the generally curious to the experienced Lewis scholar. Poe’s narrative vision of Lewis’s conversion and apologetic commitment, his arguments along the way, and the nuances of his spiritual insights are, respectively, engaging, challenging, and fascinating. Highly recommended.” James Como , author, C. S. Lewis: A Very Short Introduction. “There are few more-erudite scholars of Lewis alive today than Harry Lee Poe. This being so, this long-expected second volume of Poe’s three- part intellectual life of Lewis is most welcome. Taking Lewis’s intellectual journey from his atheist youth to his work as a middle-aged Christian apologist, Poe serves as the perfect guide to his subject’s emergence as one of the most powerful voices in the English-speaking world.” Joseph Pearce , author, Further Up & Further In: Understanding Narnia. “ The Making of C. S. Lewis , a work of careful and detailed scholarship, is distinguished by the close attention Harry Lee Poe pays to Lewis’s reading and, most importantly, to his poetry and his early literary scholarship. Poe's assessment of the importance of The Allegory of Love —not simply as a work of scholarship but as the test bed for Lewis’s emerging theology of the imagination—is most impressive. Poe delineates the important links between Lewis the literary critic and Lewis the Christian thinker. New Lewis readers and seasoned Lewis scholars have much to gain from this thought-provoking book.” Malcolm Guite , Life Fellow, Girton College, Cambridge; author, Mariner: A Voyage with Samuel Taylor Coleridge and After Prayer. “With the increasing popularity of C. S. Lewis, the time has come for a more complete biography. This second volume of Harry Lee Poe’s three- volume biography covers all the major events and many previously ignored minor events so that we learn far more about Lewis’s generosity, friendships, writings, life of service, and uproarious sense of humor. Besides all the major people in Lewis’s life, Poe pieces together the influence of all the major people in Lewis’s life, as well as Leo Baker, Janie Moore, A. C. Harwood, Owen Barfield, and numerous others. Anyone who wants to graduate to the full picture of the life of Lewis needs to read this book.” Joel D. Heck , Professor of Theology, Concordia University, Texas; author, From Atheism to Christianity: The Story of C. S. Lewis. “Harry Lee Poe has produced an in-depth sequel to his earlier book Becoming C. S. Lewis . This second volume offers detailed information about Lewis’s early adulthood and examines all the people, ideas, and experiences that influenced his pilgrimage from sharp-tongued atheist to golden- tongued apologist for Christian faith.” David C. Downing , Codirector, Marion E. Wade Center. “While not all pictures are worth a thousand words, The Making of C. S. Lewis paints an image that is clearly worth every bit of its 120,000 words. Taking the reader from just before Lewis’s first published book and stopping five years prior to his Narnia debut, Poe masterfully unfolds details that even those familiar with Lewis might not know.

Watt A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Robert Babcock Reid Barbour Shayne Legassie Carolina Digital Repository Tedprovided Leinbaugh by View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk CORE brought to you by Jessica Wolfe 1 ©2018 Caitlin G. Watt ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Caitlin G. Watt: Authorship and the Discovery of Character in Medieval Romance (Under the direction of Shayne Legassie) This dissertation argues that by pioneering new ways of constructing and reading literary character, writers of twelfth- to fourteenth-century romance also claimed a new authority for vernacular fiction. Through readings of several key medieval texts, the dissertation not only illuminates character as an underestimated critical tool used by medieval writers in but also intervenes in the ongoing scholarly discussion of medieval authorship. It begins with Le Roman d’Enéas, a twelfth-century adaptation of Virgil’s Aeneid that, by revising tensions in the characters of the Latin royal court, familiarizes the epic for a courtly audience and posits its writer as an authoritative interpreter of the Aeneid. Next, medieval concepts of memory and contemporary serial narrative theory are used to argue that Chrétien de Troyes, inventor of French Arthurian romance, creates a model of character that requires audiences to read his romances as a corpus and thus establishes himself as the author of a new literary tradition.

  • Mere Christianity
    Welcome to Dr. Kerry Irish’s study guide of C. S. Lewis’ Mere Christianity. This study guide is unique in that it begins with an introduction that explains how Mere Christianity came into being, and also how Lewis became a Christian. I have divided Mere Christianity into six discussions. Each of the discussions is labeled according to the Book and Chapters it includes. I did not use page numbers as there are many editions of Mere Christianity each with its own pagination system. However, my study guide retains the four books and chapter titles that Lewis used. The chapters are all about four to six pages long so finding the answers to the study questions should not be too hard. May the God who pursued C.S. Lewis bless your study. Introduction: C.S. Lewis: Reluctant Convert The unfolding of your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple. Psalm 119:130 It is August, 1941 London, England. Great Britain has been at war against Nazi Germany and the Italian Empire for nearly two years. The British people stand virtually alone against the greatest combined aggressive power the world has ever seen. These stalwart people have survived the fall of France and Germany’s attempted invasion of England itself the previous year. In that autumn of 1940, their young men answered the siren call, ran to their aircraft, and flew into the clouds to face the overwhelming numbers of the German air force. Almost miraculously these few hundred men saved the British Empire, and perhaps the world, as they traded their blood for time, time for Great Britain to arm and respond to Adolf Hitler’s attempt to rule Europe.

  • An Introduction to C. S. Lewis
    An Introduction to C. S. Lewis Clive Staples Lewis—C. S. Lewis to many readers—was born in Belfast, Ireland, on November 29, 1898. His parents were Albert James Lewis, a solicitor, and Florence Augusta Lewis. Lewis had one brother, Warren Hamilton Lewis, with whom he remained close for all of his life. Lewis read widely as a child, but dearly enjoyed stories about animals and nature, a theme which resurfaced in his later work The Chronicles of Narnia. Lewis and his brother Warren even created an imaginary world called Boxen in which animals lived and talked together. Coupled with Lewis’ love of creating worlds filled with anthropomorphic animals and lively natural settings was his love for ancient literature, including the epic sagas of Iceland, Norse mythology, and Greek and Medieval literature. Readers familiar with his work will recognize how these these genres and themes influenced the trajectory of his life’s work. In his early years of education, Lewis attended several private preparatory schools in Britain, including Wynyard School in Hertfordshire (1908), Campbell College in Belfast (1910), and Cherbourg House at Malvern, Worcestershire (1911). Due to poor health, though, he never remained at these schools for long. It was during his time in Worcestershire that Lewis pronounced himself an atheist, a belief he held onto until 1929 when he became a theist and then a Christian. In December 1916, Lewis received a scholarship to study at University College, Oxford. His life of academic study took a tremendous turn, however, for in 1917 Lewis enlisted in the British Army. After training, Lewis attained the rank of Second Lieutenant with the Third Battalion of the Somerset Light Infantry.
