C.S. Lewis, Writer, Dreamer, and Mentor
This new study by Lionel Adey is unique in its attempt to trace the development of C.S. Lewis as a maker and reader of books. Adey shows how the two sides of Lewis's personality, "Dreamer" and "Mentor" affected his writing in its various modes.l
A Short History of English Literature
First published in 2012. This work of introduction is designed to escort the reader through some six centuries of English literature. It begins in the fourteenth century at the point at which the language written in our country is recognizably our own, and ends in the 1950s. It is a compact survey, summing up the substance and quality of the individual achievements that make up our literature. The aim is to leave the reader informed about each writer’s main output, sensitive to the special character of his gifts, and aware of his place in the story of our literature as a whole.
The Offering of Man
The Christian religion is the religion of the Incarnation: God fully in man, and man fully in God. Just as our Lord Jesus Christ was exactly that, it is our divine business to be fully human by being brought into the closest possible relationship God--a relationship allowed only by the Incarnation. There must be a divine-human blend; we dare not take one without the other. We cannot be truly man without God and his church; we cannot be truly God's by offering him only part of our humanity. We fail to offer our full selves to God by making our religion exclusively intellectual, exclusively spiritual, exclusively moral, exclusively emotional, or exclusively physical. If we want the grace of God to bear upon our whole lives and upon the world, life in its wholeness must be offered to God--by worship, by prayer and meditation, by study, by obedience, by charity, by peace, and in Christ. There must be doctrinal certainty, ecclesiastical authority, and supernatural orientation. We must know the Truth, learn the Way, and lead the Life; one, or two, without the other(s) invites damnation.
New Town
From a friend and prot�g� of C.S. Lewis, New Town is an irresistible and thought-provoking tale that recounts one man's journey into a true Christian life.
The Post-Christian Mind
In this work, the author defines and explains the essential qualities of The Christian Mind. He sets out to expose the agenda of the secular mind that seems determined to destroy the church and civilization itself, vividly describing the way the media is trashing Christian principles in every area of life - human rights, marriage, family, morality, health, economy, the environment, and politics. What we need, says Blamires, is a vigorous Christian response to the new paganism of the contemporary world.
Theorists of the Modernist Novel
Tracing the developing modernist aesthetic in the thought and writings of James Joyce, Dorothy Richardson and Virginia Woolf, Deborah Parsons considers the cultural, social and personal influences upon the three writers. Exploring the connections between their theories, Parsons pays particular attention to their work on: forms of realism characters and consciousness gender and the novel time and history. An understanding of these three thinkers is fundamental to a grasp on modernism, making this an indispensable guide for students of modernist thought. It is also essential reading for those who wish to understand debates about the genre of the novel or the nature of literary expression, which were given a new impetus by the pioneering figures of Joyce, Richardson and Woolf.
