Lewis was one of the towering intellects of the twentieth century. Interest in his work and achievements persists unabated. The lucid power and luminous imagination of the mind of Lewis, moreover, is most admirably illustrated in this fine collection of essays by a distinguished and distinctive group of scholars. Douglas Hedley, Fellow of Clare College, Cambridge; author of The Iconic Imagination This unique and essential volume provides a fitting tribute to C.S. Lewis on the fiftieth anniversary of his death, including suitably wide-ranging engagements with his remarkable achievements as scholar, theologian, apologist, poet, and imaginative writer. Robert McSwain, Associate Professor of Theology, Sewanee: The University of the South; co-editor of The Cambridge Companion to C.S. Lewis 'Here is something for almost everyone - often presented, suitably enough, with both charm and wit, and surely enticing many of us to read or re-read the books.' Idle, Christopher, Herne Hill, SE London, Churchman, Winter 2018, pg376 this book's uniqueness was something of a delight . I must recommend this book to the lover of Lewis for it serves the important role of immortalizing in print that significant moment of commemorating C.S. Lewis in Poet's Corner David Russell Mosley, Theology, march-april 2018, vol.121 no.3, pp.209-10 This volume contains some excellent scholarship, a genuine celebration of Lewi's legacy, some original reflection and nothing particularly controversial - which is unusual in a books about Lewis.
