C.S. Lewis and Friends: We come pretty close to stocking every book in print by C.S. Lewis, and many of those about him. If you love Lewis (we count ourselves among those who think he’s one of the greatest Christian apologists of all time), you’ll probably be interested in a sampling of books by “friends”—J.R.R. Tolkien, George MacDonald, Owen Barfield, and Dorothy Sayers.

C.S. Lewis: Apostle to the Skeptics (C. S. Lewis Secondary Studies)

By: Chad Walsh

Price: $23.00

Publisher: Wipf & Stock Publishers: December 2008

Seller ID: 96593

ISBN: 1556358830

Binding: Paper Back

""That a writer of Dr. Lewis's scholarly and literary stature should publish more than a dozen books directly or indirectly defending Christianity is news; that his works should have such wide repercussions is still more significant news and merits a second thought. What does it mean when his books become best-sellers? Does the fact indicate anything about the intellectual currents of the present decade? If so, it seems time to examine more closely the exact kind of Christianity and philosophy presented in Dr. Lewis's writings, and the literary techniques that have brought him into the forefro...

Letters to Lalage: The Letters of Charles Williams to Lois Lang-Sims

By: CHARLES WILLIAMS

Price: $19.50

Publisher: Kent State University Press: December 1989

Seller ID: 20070814118454

ISBN: 0873383982

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

The short-lived but remarkable correspondence presented in Letters to Lalage took place toward the end of Charles Williams' life. Louis Lang-Sims was not the first young woman to seek his help or to fall beneath his spell. When she wrote to him in September 1943 Williams had already had numerous admirers, pupils, and disciples who looked to him for counsel, for advice, and most especially, for encouragement. His affinity with Louis Lang-Sims was not surprising. Some thirty years younger than he was, she was in due course herself to become a forceful and individual writer whose literary output,...

Witchcraft

Publisher: Apocryphile Press: October 2005

ISBN: 0976402572

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

"These pages must stand for what they are-a brief account of the history of that perverted way of the soul which we call magic, and with the reaction against it. No one will derive any knowledge of initiation from this boook. I have not wished to titillate or to thrill; so far as I can manage it, this is history, and accurate history." -adapted from the Preface Charles Williams was one of the finest-not to mention one of the most unusual-theologians of the twentieth century. His mysticism is palpable-the unseen world interpenetrates ours at every point, and spiritual exchange occurs all the ti...

The English Poetic Mind

Price: $27.00

Publisher: Wipf & Stock Publishers: March 2008

Seller ID: 154092

ISBN: 1556355556

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

After an opening chapter that examines the nature of poetry itself and analyzes its effect upon the reader, the author, in The English Poetic Mind, moves on to his main purpose, which is to try to reveal the source of the drive to creation in three of the greatest English poets: William Shakespeare, John Milton, and William Wordsworth. In each he identifies a particular kind of crisis that is the origin of the poetic impulse. In the light of these discoveries he addresses the achievements of several lesser poets and concludes with a chapter that, in a more general way, tentatively offers a vis...

Descent into Hell

By: CHARLES WILLIAMS

Price: $18.00

Publisher: Eerdmans Pub Co: June 1937

Seller ID: 155641

ISBN: 0802812201

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

The key to Williams' mystically oriented theological thought, Descent into Hell (arguably Williams' greatest novel) is a multidimensional story about human beings who shut themselves up in their own narcissistic projections, so that they are no longer able to love, to 'co-inhere.' The result is a veritable hell.

Many people don't quite know what to make of Charles Williams. An integral member of the Inklings set during World War II, he was a guest lecturer at Oxford, where he was a charismatic lecturer with a devoted, almost cult-like following. At Oxford University Press, he began as a reader and ended up as literary advisor until the end of his life. He was mostly self-educated, having had to drop out of college on 'financial grounds'; he was an unswerving member of the Church of England, with 'a refreshing tolerance of the skepticism of others, and a firm belief in the necessity of a 'doubting T...

Light: C. S. Lewis's First and Final Short Story (C.S. Lewis and Friends Book)

By: Charlie W. Starr

Price: $23.99

Publisher: Winged Lion Press, LLC: May 2012

Seller ID: 111245

ISBN: 1936294214

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

That an unknown manuscript by C. S. Lewis should suddenly appear two decades after his death is remarkable. That it turns out to be a version of a previously published Lewis short story which some have accused of being a forgery, makes it a mystery. C. S. Lewis's "Light" manuscript appeared out of nowhere in 1985 after a different version of the story was published in 1977. Could "Light" be the final version of that story, the missing polished text which should have been published all along? And does it disprove or inflame the accusations of forgery? Charlie W. Starr explores the questions and...

Twelve Types : A Collection of Mini-Biographies

By: CHESTERTON, G. K.

Price: $16.95

Publisher: Ihs Press: December 2002

Seller ID: 144535

ISBN: 0971489483

Condition: New

Perhaps in accord with his own induplicatable type, Chesterton delivers far more in this slim volume than a mere biographical telling of various literary, religious and historical figures. First published in 1902 and reprinted here with most of the original formatting intact, these essays help us see how very particular (and often peculiar) types have contributed to the deepening of orthodox faith -- simply by doing their work as writers, artists, royalty, reformers and, well, saints (we speak of Francis here). Chesterton's cast is not conclusive, but it does shed a rather invigorating light o...

Heretics (Dover Books on Western Philosophy)

By: CHESTERTON, G. K.

Price: $9.95

Publisher: Dover Publications: June 2006

Seller ID: 146158

ISBN: 0486449149

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

G. K. Chesterton, the "Prince of Paradox," is at his witty best in this collection of twenty essays and articles from the turn of the twentieth century. Focusing on "heretics" -- those who pride themselves on their superiority to conservative views -- Chesterton appraises prominent figures who fall into that category from the literary and art worlds. Luminaries such as Rudyard Kipling, George Bernard Shaw, H. G. Wells, and James McNeill Whistler come under the author's scrutiny, where they meet with equal measures of his characteristic wisdom and good humor.
In addition to incisive assessme...

" . . . dazzlingly executed and richly atmospheric." -- The Armchair Detective
A prolific and popular writer, G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936) is best known as the creator of detective-priest Father Brown (even though Chesterton's mystery stories constitute only a small fraction of his writings). The eight adventures in this classic British mystery trace the activities of Horne Fisher, the man who knew too much, and his trusted friend Harold March. Although Horne's keen mind and powerful deductive gifts make him a natural sleuth, his inquiries have a way of developing moral complications...

Orthodoxy

By: CHESTERTON, G. K.

Price: $12.95

Publisher: Ignatius Press: July 1995

Seller ID: 172769

ISBN: 0898705525

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

Surely one of the most famous apologies for Christian orthodoxy of the modern age. Chesterton's dazzling use of metaphor and paradox fits comfortably with his conviction that the world is neither unreasonable nor reasonable, but nearly reasonable, ''a trap for logicians.'' This silent ''swerving from accuracy by an inch'' is the uncanny element in everything. Chesterton's prose dances, enchants and usually convinces, even as our ''nearly satisfied'' reason turns to intuition and imagination in order to follow his arguments to their conclusions. 168 pp.

The Everlasting Man

Price: $14.95

Publisher: Ignatius Press: April 1993

Seller ID: 172772

ISBN: 0898704448

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

Chesterton's totally idiosyncratic, typically brilliant history of mankind and of the Christian religion, which concludes with the conviction that Christianity ''met the mythological search for romance by being a story, and the philosophical search for truth by being a true story.'' For C.S. Lewis, the book was one of the milestones on his path to conversion. It is probably the masterpiece, if you had to choose only one, of the man Etienne Gilson called ''one of the deepest thinkers who ever lived.'' 276 pp.
