Cartas En Latin De C S Lewis A – (Spanish)
$13.99Aficionados de C.S Lewis disfrutaran de este gran trabajo historico con comentarios sobre cartas entre grandes eclesiasticos en temas de divinidad, guerras, la iglesia y oraciones.
En septiembre de 1947, tras leer Cartas del diablo a su sobrino, el padre Giovanni Calabria se sintio impulsado a escribirle al autor, pero no sabia ingles, de modo que lo hizo en latin. Asi comenzo una correspondencia que sobreviviria al propio padre Calabria (murio en diciembre de 1954 y le sucedio en la correspondencia el padre Luigi Pedrollo).
El traductor y editor Martin Moynihan califica estas cartas de “limpidas, fluidas y profundamente refrescantes. Tambien poseen un gran encanto, sobre todo por la forma en que se inician y concluyen, es decir, por los variopintos formalismos que se emplean para presentarlas o para despedirse”.
Las Cartas en latin de C. S. Lewis a Don Giovanni Calabriamuestran, mas que otras de sus publicaciones, la fuerte faceta devocional de Lewis y contienen temas que van desde la unidad de los cristianos y la historia moderna de Europa hasta la liturgia y el comportamiento etico general. Ademas, adquieren a menudo un caracter intimo y personal.
Fans of C.S. Lewis will enjoy this great historical work with commentaries on letters between great ecclesiastics on the subjects of divinity, war, the church and prayer.
In September 1947, after reading C.S. Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters in Italian, Fr. (now St.) Giovanni Calabria was moved to write the author, but he knew no English and assumed (rightly) that Lewis knew no Italian. So, he wrote his letter in Latin, hoping that, as a classicist, Lewis would know Latin. Therein began a correspondence that was to outlive Fr. Calabria himself (he died in December 1954, and was succeeded in correspondence by Fr. Luigi Pedrollo, which continued until Lewis’s own death in 1963).
Translator/editor Martin Moynihan calls these letters “limpid, fluent and deeply refreshing. There was a charm about them, too, and not least in the way they were ‘topped and tailed’ — that is, in their ever-slightly-varied formalities of address and of farewell.”
More than any other of his published works The Latin Letters shows the strong devotional side of Lewis and contains letters ranging from Christian unity and modern European history to liturgical worship and general ethical behavior.

Personal Heresy : A Controversy
$16.99A repackaged edition of the revered author’s set of dueling critical essays with fellow scholar E. M. W. Tillyard in which they debate the role of an author’s biography in the critical appraisal of literature. C. S. Lewis–the great British writer, scholar, lay theologian, broadcaster, Christian apologist, and bestselling author of Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, The Chronicles of Narnia, and many other beloved classics–challenges fellow scholar E. M. W. Tillyard on one of the most intriguing questions involving writers and writing. Is a work of imaginative literature primarily influenced by the author or by the subject matter? Lewis argues that the author’s own personality and biography has little to no impact on the writing, while Tillyard contends the opposite: that the author’s own imagination and story have an indelible influence on a piece of work. Clever, erudite, and enlightening, their debate may not definitively settle the issue, but it does offer invaluable insight and intellectual delight for all dedicated readers”
