Traces Of Transcendence: C. S. Lewis And The Ciphers Of Being, A. N. Hunt 2023 George Fox University

Traces Of Transcendence: C. S. Lewis And The Ciphers Of Being, A. N. Hunt

Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal

C. S. Lewis experienced several moments of Sehnsucht in his life. In one incident, he reported “such a sudden intense feeling of delight that it sort of stopped me in my walk and spun me round. Indeed the sweetness was so great, & seemed so to affect the whole body as well as the mind.” This essay contends that new and significant light can be thrown on these fascinating episodes in Lewis’ life. In fact, the general philosophical features of the phenomenon causing Sehnsucht can be discerned, and described within the framework established by German existentialist Karl Jaspers (1883-1969). Like …

“Further Up And Further In”: Roads, Pilgrim’S Regress And Sehnsucht On Earth And In Heaven, Lauren Spohn 2023 George Fox University

“Further Up And Further In”: Roads, Pilgrim’S Regress And Sehnsucht On Earth And In Heaven, Lauren Spohn

Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal

First, in his 1933 allegory The Pilgrim’s Regress and, later, in his 1955 autobiography Surprised by Joy, C. S. Lewis described his conversion to Christianity as a journey guided by the search for what he called “Joy.” In the 1943 foreword to Regress, Lewis defines this feeling as an “intense longing” that “pierces us like a rapier”; later in Surprised by Joy, he calls it a desire of “almost sickening intensity,” best captured by the German word Sehnsucht. David Downing offers a helpful formulation of this “Sweet Desire” as “the blissful ache for some paradise out of reach,” which acts …


C. S. Lewis’S “Transposition”: Text And Context, Arend Smilde 2023 George Fox University

C. S. Lewis’S “Transposition”: Text And Context, Arend Smilde

Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal

“Transposition” was originally a sermon for Whitsunday (Pentecost), preached in the chapel of Mansfield College, Oxford, around the end of the Second World War. Taking his cue from the miraculous “speaking in tongues” described in Acts 2, Lewis addresses the problem of “the obvious continuity between things which are admittedly natural and things which, it is claimed, are spiritual.”
