	C. S. Lewis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lewis loved to read, and as his father’s house was filled with books, he felt that finding a book he had not read was as easy as "finding a blade of grass." He also had a mortal fear of spiders and insects as a child, and they often haunted his dreams.
		Lewis at first regarded her as an agreeable intellectual companion and personal friend, and it was at least overtly on this level that he agreed to enter into a civil marriage contract with her so that she could continue to live in the UK.
		Lewis taught as a fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford, for nearly thirty years, from 1925 to 1954, and later was the first Professor of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at the University of Cambridge and a fellow of Magdalene College, Cambridge.

	CS Lewis WAS An Atheist [Past Tense]
		CS Lewis WAS an Atheist – for a time in his life, Lewis was indeed an atheist.
		Lewis said, “The great Angler played His fish and I never dreamed that the hook was in my tongue…Atheists cannot be too careful; dangers and traps lie in wait for them on every side.” Lewis began giving consideration to the historic relevance and reality of Christ.
		Therefore, her article about CS Lewis deserves no merit, because it didn’t stick to the facts but instead became a drama festival which is not what I intended when I challenged her.

	Michael Lewis Music Forums • View topic - JRR Tolkien & CS Lewis: A Legendary Friendship
		Tolkien and Lewis shared the belief that through myth and legend?for centuries the mode many cultures had used to communicate their deepest truths?a taste of the Christian gospel's "True Myth" could be smuggled past the barriers and biases of secularized readers.
		Lewis, although he used a very rational, knock-down technique in his rhetorical approach to philosophical questions, was a deeply imaginative man who regarded his imaginative self as his most basic self.
		Suddenly Lewis could see that the nourishment he had always received from great myths and fantasy stories was a taste of that greatest, truest story?of the life, death, and resurrection of Christ.

		Born in Belfast, Northern Ireland on November 29, 1898, Clive Staples ("Jack") Lewis was reared in a peculiarly bookish home, one in which the reality he found on the pages of the books within his parents' extensive library seemed as tangible and meaningful to him as anything that transpired outside their doors.
		There was, first, Lewis the distinguished Oxbridge literary scholar and critic; second, Lewis, the highly acclaimed author of science fiction and children's literature; and thirdly, Lewis, the popular writer and broadcaster of Christian apologetics.

	The New Yorker : critics : atlarge
		Lewis is defended, analyzed, protected, but always in the end vindicated, while his detractors are mocked at length: a kind of admiration not so different in its effects from derision.
		Lewis has an easy time showing that progress is dubious, that evil persists, that imagination has a crucial role to play in life, that life without a shared ritual and some kind of sacred myth is hardly worth living.
		Lewis, to the dismay of his friends, went from being a private prig and common-room hearty to being a mensch—a C. of E. mensch, but a mensch.

		Clive Staples Lewis was Professor of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge University, Fellow in English at Oxford University’s Magdalen College, and the author of the series of children’s classics The Chronicles of Narnia.
		Lewis defends the idea that there is an eternal and immutable moral law that, no matter how much we attempt to reduce it personal preferences and cultural attitudes, cannot be conquered.
		Using this device, Lewis seeks to debunk the universalist idea that all are saved, that whatever path one chooses for one’s life will ultimately fulfil the same role as any other and so will lead to the same place.

	CS Lewis on Osama bin Laden
		The lost souls in Lewis’ works sound a lot like the extremists in Iraq: the wickedness of other religions is their gospel; self-righteousness is their liturgy.
		Another insight from CS Lewis seems even more on point-what he called the passion for the "Inner Ring." By this he meant an unhealthy desire to belong: a dark ambition to move in the right circles and to win praise from the right kinds of people.
		If CS Lewis is right, then winning the war on terror begins by accepting a very religious idea, the proposition that man does not live by bread, or democracy, alone.

		Clive Staples Lewis ("Jack" Lewis to his friends) was a tutor and lecturer at Oxford University, and later Professor of Medieval and Renaissance English Literature at Cambridge University.
		Lewis delivered these in his professional capacity as a specialist in Mediaeval and Renaissance English Literature, but they will be of interest to Christians as well as to English students, for Lewis maintains that one cannot understand or appreciate the poem without understanding (not necessarily accepting) the beliefs that the poem presupposes.
		Lewis asks what will happen if we reverse the process by distinguishing two kinds of pleasures to be gotten from books (or music, or painting) and then distinguishing books on the basis of the kind of pleasure that they offer, or the way in which they invite the reader to approach them.
