The Personal Heresy
Author: C. S. Lewis
Publisher: HarperOne
ISBN: 9780062565624
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A 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.

The Personal Heresy
Author: Eustace Mandeville Wetenhall Tillyard
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
In his brilliant essay on The Personal Heresy in Criticism C.S. Lewis attacked the widely held belief the poetry is, or should be, the expression of the poet's personality. His attempt to supplant this assumption with an objective or impersonal theory of poetry was challenged by Dr. E.M.W. Tillyard whose interpretation of Paradise Lost he had called in question. So began a courteous but searching series of exchanges between two of the most learned and original scholar-critics of the their day."--Back cover
