C.S. Lewis: Apostle to the Skeptics
Digital Verbum Edition
Overview
That a writer of C.S. Lewis’ 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 it indicate anything about the intellectual currents of the present time? If so, it seems time to examine more closely the exact kind of Christianity and philosophy presented in Lewis’ writings, and the literary techniques that have brought him into the forefront of authors dealing with religious themes.
