C S Lewis Centenary Group

Number 13, June 1998

Monthly from the C S Lewis Centenary Group

The great Christian writer, C S Lewis, was born in Belfast on 29th November 1898. The C S Lewis Centenary Group formed in 1994, so that Lewis’s native land might suitably celebrate his Centenary in 1998.

IN JUNE.

* June 7^th - C. S. Lewis once began a lecture on Sir Walter Scott by describing how, on this night in 1826, Scott, in poor health, bankrupt, and newly bereaved, was kept awake by a howling dog.

* June 16^th - 1895, birth of Warren Hamilton Lewis

* June 17^th - 1918, C. S. Lewis wrote triumphantly to Arthur Greeves describing the opera 'The Valkyrie' that he had just seen at Drury Lane Theatre, London.

* June 19^th - 1959, C. S. Lewis wrote to fellow literature professor Kathleen Raine to advise her to stay at Cambridge. If she stayed, he said, she could always leave later; but if she left, she couldn't come back.

* June 20^th - 1916, C. S. Lewis wrote to Arthur Greeves that if Arthur did not send Lewis some literary efforts by midnight on the last day of June, Lewis would break off all communication.

* June 22^nd - 1921, C. S. Lewis read portions of his Chancellor's prize essay at the 'Encaenin' ceremony in Oxford's Sheldonian Theatre.

OXFORD CENTENARY STONE

Oxford University has paid tribute to C. S. Lewis. MICHAEL WARD of the Oxford University C. S. Lewis Society writes;

'Magdalen College Chapel was packed to overflowing for a special Evensong on May 13th, prior to the unveiling of the Lewis stone in Addison's Walk. The Magdalen Choir sang as an introit 'Veni Sancte Spiritus', the opening music of Richard Attenborough's 'Shadowlands'. (The composer, George Fenton, happened, by a fortunate coincidence, to be present to hear it. He was at Magdalen to supervise the Choir's recording of some new music for his most recent soundtrack.) During the service, lessons were read by Lewis's godson, Laurence Harwood, and by Lady Freud, who was an evacuee at The Kilns during the war. The Dean of Divinity, the Revd. Dr. Michael Piret, in his prayers quoted from Lewis's works and gave thanks for Lewis's life. He also prayed for peace in Lewis's native Northern Ireland. (Dr Piret is a former President of the Oxford Lewis Society.) After the service was over, the congregation adjourned to Addison's Walk, which was looking especially beautiful in the evening sunlight, - though only a few weeks previously it had been completely under water in the April floods.

The commemorative tablet is a circle of Westmorland green slate about three feet in diameter, designed by stonemason Alec Peever, and erected a stone's throw from Lewis's rooms in the New Building. Michael Ward, the Centenary Secretary of the Oxford Lewis Society, welcomed everyone and spoke for a few minutes about the place Addison's Walk held in Lewis's life and about the poem, 'What the Bird Said Early in the Year', which has been inscribed on the tablet.

The President of Magdalen, Mr Anthony Smith, then unveiled the stone, and Walter Hooper, Lewis's biographer, recited the poem to the gathering. Among the eighty or so invited guests were former pupils of Lewis such as Francis Warner (now a don at St Peter's College, Oxford) and Martin Moynihan (editor of Lewis's Latin letters). A drinks reception in the President's Lodgings brought the evening's events to their conclusion.'

ORGAN RECITALS, July & August

Mr George Bayley has confirmed his programme of C. S. Lewis Centenary Organ recitals as;

17th July at 1.15 PM in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin;
17th July at 7.30 PM in Holywood Parish Church;
23rd July at 7.30 PM in Belfast Cathedral; and
2nd August at 5:00 PM in St. Paul's Cathedral, London.

Mr Bayley writes- The C. S. Lewis-related music is the Shadowlands Suite (15 minutes in length) and Psalm XIX (4 minutes in length).

Shadowlands Suite. When I first saw the cinema version of Shadowlands, I was impressed deeply by the beauty and appropriateness of the music throughout the film. The ‘Veni Creator Spiritus’ was scored for choir with organ accompaniment, the only use of the organ in the film score. It seemed to me, however, that much of the music would transcribe successfully to the organ. Upon the suggestion of Mr. James O’Fee, chairman of the C. S. Lewis Centenary Group of Northern Ireland, I wrote to Mr. Fenton for permission to transcribe some of the film score for organ. He generously provided the orchestral scores to the movements I requested, and the Shadowlands Suite you are to hear this evening is the result. I have tried to use organ registration that is as close as possible to the orchestral sound conceived by George Fenton for the film score. (G. W. Bayley) The original film soundtrack is available on Angel.

Psalm 19, "The heavens declare the glory of God", was C. S. Lewis’s favourite psalm. The music of Marcello’s Psalm XIX, written in a brilliant chordal style fits perfectly the meaning of the Psalm text.

COUNTY DOWN TOUR The Centenary Group will organise a tour to County Down on Tuesday 4 August, the day before the opening of the Belfast Conference 'CS Lewis: Saint and Scholar'. Starts 2 pm. Costs, transport and other details will depend on the numbers interested.

'RUMOURS OF HEAVEN ESSAYS IN CELEBRATION OF CS LEWIS CENTENARY', Eagle, Guildford, 1998

Compare these two reviews written specially by MICHAEL APICELLA and REV PERRY BRAMLETT.

(1) MICHAEL APICELLA (formerly resident at THE KILNS) writes:

Born 100 years ago this year, C.S. Lewis continues to inspire Christian faith in millions the world over. Rumours of Heaven – Essays in celebration of CS Lewis edited by Drs. Andrew Walker and James Patrick, is a fitting tribute to the man Time magazine dubbed, "Apostle to the Sceptics".

Although it bears a copyright for 1998, Rumours was first published in 1990 as 'A Christian For All Christians: Essays In Honour of C. S. Lewis' (Hodder & Stoughton).

Thirteen essays dissect Lewis's apologetics, his faith, his thoughts on Russian Orthodoxy, the writers who influenced him, his genres, and his opinion of myth. A final chapter offers a listing of Lewis biographies and bibliographies up to 1987.

Joe Christopher announces in the latter a forthcoming 'definitive biography' by A. N. Wilson. He shouldn’t have bothered: Wilson scoffs at Lewis’s simple belief that Jesus Christ was the Son of God and the saviour of the world. Many Christians owe Lewis a debt of gratitude. Essayist, Dr. Lyle Dorsett, states, "Lewis’s theology provides sound, orthodox Christian teaching in a very palatable form for people who live in what he described as a post-Christian age."

As no British publishers saw fit to commission new scholarship on Lewis this year, it looks like a case of a prophet not being recognised in his homeland.

(2) REV PERRY BRAMLETT (of C. S. LEWIS FOR THE LOCAL CHURCH):

RUMOURS OF HEAVEN - ESSAYS IN CELEBRATION OF C. S. LEWIS (Dr Andrew Walker & Dr James Patrick, eds., Eagle Publishing, Guildford, Surrey,

1998, paperback, 251 pp.) - This book was originally published in 1990 (Hodder & Stoughton in the U. K., then in 1992 in the U. S. by Regnery Gateway) as A CHRISTIAN FOR ALL CHRISTIANS - ESSAYS IN HONOUR OF C. S.LEWIS. It contains 13 essays by authors from the U. S., Europe, and North America that "begin with biography and apologetics, move on to literary and personal influences on Lewis before considering his philosophy and doctrine. The book ends with a look at Lewis's philosophy of history."

All of the essays are well written, and those that particularly interested me were by Brian Horne ("A Particular Debt: The Influence of Charles Williams on C. S. Lewis"), Aidan Mackey ("The Christian Influence of G. K. Chesterton on C. S. Lewis"), Peter J. Schakel ("Elusive Birds and Narrative Nets: The Appeal of Story in C. S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia"), and Joe R. Christopher ("Biographies and Bibliographies on C. S. Lewis").

This is an excellent book of essays about Lewis, and one that it is hoped will have a wide readership. It was obviously published with the Lewis centenary in mind, and while the new title is good, I much preferred the original title. Some might ask why this book was reissued (with no additions or changes) in the first place, but with the increased interest in Lewis this year, it is easy to find reasons, both good and not so good.

'C. S. LEWIS JOURNAL', Eagle, Guildford, 1998, £7.99.

KATHRYN LINDSKOOG writes-'I see that in your centenary newsletter you announced THE C. S. LEWIS PRAYER JOURNAL, edited by Susan Wavre for the English publisher Eagle. I don't know why Eagle leaves my name off, because I'm the author whom Wavre edited. Using a copy of my meticulously constructed book of 365 days, AROUND THE YEAR WITH C. S. LEWIS AND HIS FRIENDS (Gibson, 1986, out of print), Wavre pulled out bits of my content at random for a 52-week gift book called A C. S. LEWIS PRAYER JOURNAL. (At the last minute the word PRAYER has been deleted from the title.) Once her book was in the galley proof stage, an agent belatedly notified me about it and offered payment for use of my copyrighted material. I received no explanation for the fact that I was only contacted as an afterthought.

I agreed, but insisted upon checking the galley proofs for accuracy; and I was appalled at the sloppy and amateurish errors there. (For example, Wavre said that TILL WE HAVE FACES was by Charles Williams.) I sent in a list of specific corrections, and eventually received a copy of the published book.

Alas, many of the errors remain. For example, Wavre's brief introduction claims that Lewis's first book was THE PILGRIM'S REGRESS (it was third), and that Lewis made his name as a writer of adult science fiction. She says his Christian apologetics happened accidentally! According to Wavre, Lewis's "generous income" as a beginning instructor at Magdalen College gave him the freedom to indulge in his main areas of interest, the first two being Anglo Saxon and Norse myths. Why Eagle did not let me edit my own book is beyond me.

C. S. LEWIS JOURNAL is a very handsome gift book with a padded front cover and a ribbon marker. (Unfortunately, nine of the book's 16 scenic photos have nothing to do with Lewis.) My name and Wavre's are mentioned only on the copyright page, and I'm rather glad. I'd hate for anyone seriously interested in C. S. Lewis to think that I'm responsible for something this erratic. If only the content had been as important to the publisher as the appearance!'

Your Editor invited Susan Wavre to reply to Mrs Lindskoog's charges. DAVID WAVRE of Eagle Publications replies (2^nd June 1998): 'I am writing on behalf of my wife concerning the letter that you have written to us about the CS Journal and the letter you have received from Kathryn Lindskoog.

As Kathryn Lindskoog has worked exclusively through her agent, we have never been in direct touch. We have, however, from day one worked through the agent and submitted first drafts (never galley proofs) to Lindskoog's agent. I am highly surprised that she comments in public upon errors, or differences in factual interpretation, which were included in a first draft submitted to her. For your information, the introduction and the allegedly erroneous information in the introduction that she mentions were taken from two books published by C S Lewis' publishers, Harper Collins. The one by David Barrat, the other by A N Wilson.

I would like to reassure you and your readers that Eagle did take into account all corrections and suggestions that Kathryn Lindskoog passed on to us through her agent. I am therefore rather surprised at the tone of the letter, the divulgence of monies paid, and the way in which this business has been handled "in public" without any reference to ourselves, the publisher.'

* RESEARCH

MACPHEE, KIRKPATRICK AND KING ARTHUR

DAVID LANDRUM writes: 'If Arthurian mythology plays such a big role in THAT HIDEOUS STRENGTH and if Merlin is there, and if Ransom is the Pendragon, could Fairy Hardcastle not be somehow equated with Morgan le Fay? She was Arthur's half-sister in some of the legends and was evil. "Fay," sometimes spelled "Fee," means "Fairy," and in this case she was an evil fairy. I think in Tennyson's *Idylls* it is Morgan who brings about the fall of Logres. In *Sir Gawain and the Green Knight* she also seems to be doing the dirty work, but I can't remember how. (After what Jim pointed out related to Grace Ironwood, I had better go back and re-read some of these texts.) "Fairy" would suggest Fay, and "Hardcastle" would reflect the Celtic or Medieval setting, a *hard* castle where one might be imprisoned and tortured rather than a castle where hospitality would be afforded. Perhaps this is another Arthurian connection for the story.'

David Landrum has observed that Merlin called MacPhee "Ransom's (ie Arthur's) Fool". Shakespeare's KING LEAR had a Fool, and Lear was a British king of around the same period as Arthur. Might there be a connection?

In the LEWIS LEGACY of Spring 1998 (Issue 76), JAMES LONG of California suggests that Lewis may have taken the name 'MacPhee' from a Rudyard Kipling character of that name.

* 'WHAT C. S. LEWIS HAS MEANT TO ME'

CHRISTOPHER GOBLE writes; 'I first became familiar (with C. S. Lewis's books) at the bright young age of six when a teacher read out extracts of the LWW to us, and only revisiting that book some five years later I realised that the magic was there. I've reread the Narnia Chronicles in the last couple of years, and enjoyed them more than ever.

In reading C.S. Lewis I have found myself face to face with the type of supernatural Christianity I recognise, and does not conform to the bland version you occasionally (frequently) encounter in the Church of England.

Also the films, Shadowlands (with Sir Anthony Hopkins and Debra Winger) and the BBC version with Joss Acland and Claire Bloom (for my money the better of the two) have had quite an impact on me, as they deal with some of the biggest issues of our day, life, death, and faith. It was my privilege to lecture the Society of Saint David, at Lampeter, Wales, on C.S Lewis a couple of years ago and show the Sir AH version of Shadowlands.

God bless you all, and would you pray for me on Sunday 28th June at 10.45 a.m. (BST) as I am ordained deacon in Worcester Cathedral.'

IN BRIEF

CLLR DAVID ALDERDICE, Lewis enthusiast, was elected Lord Mayor of Belfast on 1 June. We wish Cllr Alderdice a very successful term of office.

CHARLES BATEMAN, who took many of the photographs used in our brochure 'THE C S LEWIS CENTENARY TRAIL IN BELFAST AND NORTH DOWN', has won First Prize, worth £1,000, in the Professional Category in the photographic competition run by the Ulster Television programme, 'Lesser-Spotted Ulster'.

C. S. LEWIS'S WILL: MR DAVID GASTON, Solicitor, of Belfast, says that about 2 years ago he turned up a copy of CSK's will, among legal documents relating to a property in Belfast (probably in Dandle Avenue) that C. S. Lewis owned at the time of his death. Mr DAVID PATTERSON, a retired US diplomat living in Central America, writes that he has a copy of CSL's will in his possession. Editor: CSL's will is naturally a public document. Anyone may freely obtain a copy from the authorities on payment of the appropriate fee.
