Why Lewis’ Poetry Matters, Don W. King
Why Lewis’ Poetry Matters, Don W. King
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
In spite of Lewis’ sustained, earnest, and determined efforts at writing poetry through the middle 1920s, his reputation will always be based on his prose, both fiction and non-fiction. That this is the case begs the questions: Does Lewis’ poetry matter? Why bother sifting through his verse if the real gold is to found elsewhere? Should not Lewis’ poetry simply be written off as so much adolescent self-indulgence? Did not his commitment to older poetic forms and traditions hopelessly date his poetry? While much could be said about the literary merits of Lewis’ poetry, here the discussion is limited to …
The Continuing (Ir) Relevance Of C.S. Lewis, Robert Macswain
The Continuing (Ir) Relevance Of C.S. Lewis, Robert Macswain
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
found myself profoundly frustrated with the polarization that became evident between Lewis’ friends and foes, devotees and detractors. At the extremes of this debate were those who apparently regarded Lewis’ work as, for all intents and purposes, Holy Writ; at the other end of it were those who, for whatever reason, regarded Lewis with disdain and contempt. Sane, balanced, objective, sympathetically-critical and critically-sympathetic assessments seemed so rare as to be almost non-existent. The devotional attitude was largely characteristic of the United States, where I had grown up; and the disdain and contempt seemed especially prevalent in England, where I was …

The Archangel Fragment: Identifying And Interpreting C. S. Lewis’S “Cryptic Note”, Joe Ricke
The Archangel Fragment: Identifying And Interpreting C. S. Lewis’S “Cryptic Note”, Joe Ricke
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
According to Dickieson and Starr, “On a blank page at the end of Stephens book, where the open space was apparently tempting, Brown found this cryptic note written in Lewis’s hand.” That note, the key link to the Bodleian fragment, reads as follows: "I tried v. hard to get hold of the letters on the other side—from the archangel to the guardian angel. But the only bit that ever camethrough didn’t make much sense. It was 'The children continued instructing the bears in the bend of the great river.'" However, for reasons they could not have known at that time, …

An Imaginative Tale From The Father Of C. S. Lewis, Crystal Hurd
An Imaginative Tale From The Father Of C. S. Lewis, Crystal Hurd
Sehnsucht: The C. S. Lewis Journal
“The Story of a Half Sovereign” resembles traditional work of the late nineteenth century. It possesses a trace of its ancestors in echoes of Dickens, as well as some similarities to the genuine issues featured in the Irish courts during Albert’s tenure as solicitor. However, beyond its significance as a simple story, “The Story of a Half Sovereign” serves to demonstrate the political and spiritual climate in which Warren and Jack developed. Their father’s insistence on personal integrity and biblical morality, his early frustrations with privilege among the ruling class, and his conviction to perform his Christian duty were not …
