Most helpful customer reviews 80 of 81 people found the following review helpful. A good collection, but not the best By Rachel Simmons Lewis's shorter works were generally originally composed as speeches or as articles for periodicals. Various sets of them were collected and published in book form both during his life and after his death. Trying to determine what works are in what collections is difficult - most works appear in more than one collection, some works appear under more than one title, and some collections appear under more than one title. To aid readers, in this review I've listed the works in this collection, with notes indicating other collections they have appeared in. Where a work has appeared under more than one title, I give both titles separated by a

6 slash. Table of Contents: Preface, by Walter Hooper (4) "Christianity and Literature" (1), (2), (4) "Christianity and Culture" (2), (4) "Religion: Reality or Substitute" (2), (4) "On Ethics" (2), (4) "De Futilitate" (2), (4) "The Poison of Subjectivism" (2), (4) "The Funeral of a Great Myth" (2), (4) "On Church Music" (2) "Historicism" (2), (3), (4) "The Psalms" (2), (4) "The Language of Religion" (2), (4) "Petitionary Prayer: A Problem Without an Answer" (2), (4) "Fern-Seed and Elephants" / "Modern Theology and Biblical Criticism" (2), (3), (4) "The Seeing Eye" / "Onward Christian Spacemen" (2), (4) Notes: (1) also published in "Rehabilitations and Other Essays" (2) also published in "Essay Collection and Other Short Pieces" (3) also published in "Fern-Seed and Elephants and Other Essays" (4) also published in "The Seeing Eye and Other Selected Essays from Christian Reflections" Recommendations: If you are interested in Lewis's shorter works, my best advice is to get "Essay Collection and Other Short Pieces", which, as of the time of this writing, is available from Amazon UK but not Amazon US. That collection consists of about 130 short works by Lewis. The works in that collection are mostly, but not exclusively, Christian. If your interest in Lewis's shorter works is restricted to those on Christianity, and your budget or enthusiasm does not run to "Essay Collection and Other Short Pieces", then my second-best advice is to get any or all of the following (they don't overlap significantly, and between them they include most of Lewis's shorter Christian writings): "God in the Dock - Essays on Theology and Ethics"* "The World's Last Night and Other Essays" "Christian Reflections" "The Weight of Glory and Other Addresses" * Be careful - there is a UK Fontana paperback lurking about called "God in the Dock - Essays on Theology" that is substantially shorter than the "God in the Dock - Essays on Theology and Ethics" collection. A full version of "God in the Dock - Essays on Theology and Ethics" was published in the UK under the title "Undeceptions - Essays on Theology and Ethics". 24 of 24 people found the following review helpful. 14 engaging C.S. Lewis essays By David Graham These fourteen essays (with an introduction by Walter Hooper) are about a variety of topics related to Christianity, but not necessarily ABOUT Christianity. My favorite of the bunch is "Modern Theology and Biblical Criticism", a thumping rejoinder to those whose misapplication of form and redaction criticism (e.g. Bultmann or Schweitzer or Dibelius) to the gospels prevents them from making sound judgments about the life of Christ. His essay "Petitionary Prayer: A Problem Without an Answer" is brutally honest, ending as it does in a questioning uncertainty about the matter, while his essay "The Psalms" is helpful in guiding the

7 reader to an understanding of how to view that portion of scripture. Some essays may strike one reader's fancy less than another's, but there is plenty here for most people to find AT LEAST one or two they greatly enjoy. I liked all of them and found most of them very helpful to my own reflections on life. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. A POSTHUMOUS COLLECTION OF ESSAYS BY THE FAMED APOLOGIST By Steven H Propp Clive Staples Lewis ( ) was a novelist, academic, medievalist, lay theologian, and Christian apologist who held academic positions at both Oxford University and Cambridge University. He wrote many other books, such as Mere Christianity, Miracles, Problem of Pain, The Screwtape Letters, A Grief Observed, The World's Last Night, The Abolition of Man, The Great Divorce, God in the Dock, The Weight of Glory, etc. This 1967 collection contains essays on a variety of topics, such as "Christianity and Literature"; "Christianity and Culture"; "On Church Music"; "The Language of Religion"; "Petitionary Prayer---A Problem Without an Answer"; "Modern Theology and Biblical Criticism," etc. He notes in the essay on literature, "the Christian knows from the outset that the salvation of a single soul is more important than the production or preservation of all the epics and tragedies in the world: and as for superiority, he knows that the vulgar since they include most of the poor probably include most of his superiors. He has no objection to comedies that merely amuse or tales that merely refresh; for he thinks like Thomas Aquinas... We can play, as we can eat, to the glory of God." (Pg. 10) He later observes, "The idea... that Christianity brought in a new ethical code into the world is a grave error. If it had done so, then we should have to conclude that all who first preached it wholly misunderstood their own message: for all of them, its Founder, His precursor, His apostles, came demanding repentance and offering forgiveness, a demand and an offer both meaningless except on the assumption of a moral law already known and already broken." (Pg. 46) He points out, "To reach the positions held by the real scientists... you must, in fact, treat reason as an absolute. But at the same time the Myth asks me to believe that reason is simply the unforeseen and unintended byproduct of a mindless process at one stage of its endless and aimless becoming. The content of the Myth thus knocks from under me the only ground on which I could possibly believe the Myth to be true. If my own mind is the product of the irrational... how shall I trust my mind when it tells me about Evolution?" (Pg. 89) In the essay on Petitionary Prayer, he outlines "the A pattern" of prayer, in which we are 'well aware that God in His wisdom may not see fit to give us what we ask and submitting our wills to His in advance to a possible refusal" (Pg. 143), and contrasts it with the "B pattern," which is "faith that the particular thing the petitioner asks will be given him." (Pg. 144) Of the person with the B pattern of belief, he says, "I certainly would not hear such a person with scepticism, still less with mockery. I believe in miracles, here and now. But if [Pattern B] is the complete answer, then why was the A Pattern of prayer ever given at all?" (Pg. 150) These essays are an excellent addition to Lewis's published books, and will be of great interest to all fans of his writings. See all 15 customer reviews...
