The Collected Letters of C.S. Lewis, Volume 3

di C. S. Lewis (Autore)

HarperOne, 2009

The last of the three-volume collection of C.S. Lewis’s letters, Volume Three spans his time at Cambridge, his brilliant creation of the land of Narnia and the children’s series that followed, and the spiritual crisis triggered by Lewis’s encounter with death. Already a household name from his books on spirituality and his appearances on radio, Volume Three begins as Lewis is about to publish his best known book, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. It covers Lewis’s time at Cambridge, and his relationship with his wife Joy, who died in 1960. A bereaved Lewis explored his sorrow in A Grief Observed. C.S. Lewis was a prolific letter writer and his personal correspondence continues right up to his death on November 22, 1963, the date of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination. This volume also includes both a special section of newly found letters from earlier time periods covered in Volumes One and Two and mini-biographies of Lewis’s regular correspondents. Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was born in Belfast. He was a fellow and tutor in English Literature at Magdalen College, Oxford, and was later Professor of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge University, where he remained until his death. His major contributions in literary criticism, children’s literature, fantasy literature, and popular theology brought him international renown and acclaim. Lewis’s most distinguished and popular accomplishments include The Chronicles of Narnia, Out of the Silent Planet, The Four Loves, The Screwtape Letters, and Mere Christianity.
