Zusammenfassung: | C. S. Lewis has remained an enigmatic character, despite the attempts by biographers to put together pieces of his life and work. In this book, however, Kath Filmer turns to Lewis's own writings, in particular his fiction, to discover that what Lewis thought was a mask behind which he could safely hide becomes a mirror in which Lewis's lifelong quests for psychological and spiritual fulfilment are clearly revealed. As well, new insights are offered into Lewis as a political thinker of the same order as George Orwell, with whom he shared many concerns. And Lewis's attitudes to women are also examined in the light of his preoccupation with the Lady of Courtly Love tradition. Lewis emerges from the pages of this book as a warm, human, brilliant but occasionally flawed writer. This appeal to readers across the years has been because of his understanding of human nature, and his ability to communicate the human experiences we all share. |
