Mere Christianity And The Moral Argument For The Existence Of God, Christopher A. Shrock
Mere Christianity And The Moral Argument For The Existence Of God, Christopher A. Shrock
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
C. S. Lewis’s moral argument for the existence of God from Mere Christianity has been called the “most widely-convincing apologetic argument of the twentieth century.” It is concise and commonsensical. But Lewis’s argument has come under heavy fire in past decades, most notably from John Beversluis and Erik Wielenberg. This article offers an alternative reading on which the moral argument from the opening chapters of Mere Christianity is not only valid but also original and defensible. Unlike other moral arguments, Lewis deals in neither metaethics nor moral pragmatics. So he avoids prickly objections related to Divine Command Theory and accusations …
Paradise Retained: C. S. Lewis On The Nature Of Knowledge, Reality, And Morality In Perelandra, Richard L. W. Clarke
Paradise Retained: C. S. Lewis On The Nature Of Knowledge, Reality, And Morality In Perelandra, Richard L. W. Clarke
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
The world-view which informs Perelandra (1943) in particular and the so-called “space trilogy” more generally, of which it is the second volume, is deeply infused with that blend of Christianity and Platonism that is the hallmark of the thought of C. S. Lewis and which I explore at some length in the companion essay to this piece in this volume, “The Neoplatonic Christianity of C. S. Lewis.” Perelandra is, I would argue, a literary rendition of some of the most important philosophical arguments in defense of Christianity mounted by Lewis in Mere Christianity and elsewhere.
The Neo-Platonic Christianity Of C. S. Lewis, Richard L. W. Clarke
The Neo-Platonic Christianity Of C. S. Lewis, Richard L. W. Clarke
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
I shall attempt to show how Lewis’s fusion of Platonism with Christianity gives rise to his belief, metaphysically speaking, that the physical universe is not all there is but, rather, “transposes” (as he terms it) a greater non-physical or spiritual reality and is, as such, part of a divinely-ordained, orderly, and purposeful scheme of things. I shall also argue that for Lewis, epistemologically speaking, knowledge of this grand design and the place of humans therein is conveyed not through the human senses, at least as these are conventionally conceived, but, rather, through our higher reason, which is capable of objective …

“Happily Ever After” For The Twenty-First Century? Sex, Love, And Human Identity In C. S. Lewis’ The Chronicles Of Narnia, Monika B. Hilder
“Happily Ever After” For The Twenty-First Century? Sex, Love, And Human Identity In C. S. Lewis’ The Chronicles Of Narnia, Monika B. Hilder
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
For better and for worse, classic fairy tales have come under severe criticism as paradigms of sexist patriarchy in recent decades. Likewise, C. S. Lewis has been viewed as sexist, even misogynistic. While many fairy tale and Lewis fans might be tempted to dismiss all of these criticisms as nonsense, gender is one of the predominant discourses of our time, our questions and the varied answers are significant, and in this essay I consider how Lewis’ development of the fairy tale genre in The Chronicles of Narnia offers timeless, possibly even surprising, Christian wisdom. How does Lewis portray sex, love, …
Conflict, Forgiveness, And The Healing Of Harms In C. S. Lewis’ The Chronicles Of Narnia, Jeffrey A. Misener
Conflict, Forgiveness, And The Healing Of Harms In C. S. Lewis’ The Chronicles Of Narnia, Jeffrey A. Misener
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
Excerpt: "In The Chronicles of Narnia, children are celebrated as models of heroic potential in the ways they realize, apologize for, and repent of sinful words and deeds. This is in keeping with C. S. Lewis’ desire that his young readers would recognize and practice these virtues as signs of the “childlike faith” Jesus expects of his disciples (Mark 10:15; Luke 18:17).92 Conversely, adults are generally shown to be owners of an obtuse conscience and a recalcitrant will.
C. S. Lewis And The Occult Temptation, Thomas Garrett Isham
C. S. Lewis And The Occult Temptation, Thomas Garrett Isham
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
Twice in his life C. S. Lewis encountered—and greatly admired—authors involved in occult theory and practice.1 The first such figure was William Butler Yeats, the second, more than two decades later, Charles Williams. Lewis reacted to their occult preoccupations in quite different ways, even while acknowledging his continuing fascination with the subject.
Lost Letters Of Lewis At The Lambeth Palace Library, Gregory Anderson
Lost Letters Of Lewis At The Lambeth Palace Library, Gregory Anderson
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
Three recently discovered letters from C. S. Lewis provide a window through which we can observe the Oxford don as he is first coming into national prominence during, and immediately after, World War II. They are a 1942 letter from C. S. Lewis to Archbishop William Temple and two 1946 letters from him to Canon Lewis John Collins. Lewis is seen in these letters struggling with the issue of calling or vocation, and this gives us a glimpse into his decision making at critical times both in his career and in the life of his country.
“The Exact Programme A Particular Country Wishes To Have” : C. S. Lewis’ Literary Broadcast For Iceland, Suzanne Bray
“The Exact Programme A Particular Country Wishes To Have” : C. S. Lewis’ Literary Broadcast For Iceland, Suzanne Bray
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
In December 2015, Harry Lee Poe created somewhat of a sensation by revealing that he had found, on eBay, a Joint Broadcasting Committee 78 rpm record with two out of four parts of a previously unknown talk given by C. S. Lewis to the people of Iceland during the Second World War, entitled “The Norse Spirit in English Literature.”2 At the beginning of the talk Lewis states that “he [does] not know why he ha[s] been asked to address the people of Iceland” and Harry Lee Poe admits that “how Lewis came to be recruited and by whom remains a …
