Essays: Triologue: Kepler, Twain, Lewis (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798230716433)

The Essays are comprised in four sections. The first is "Neophyte Papers." These essays were written in the mid 1980s when I began thinking about CS Lewis on paper in my limited way. The second section, "Familiarizing Papers," contains essays written for the course in humanities. This got me thinking of a dialogue, here called a Triologue, between Johannes Kepler, CS Lewis, and Mark Twain. The fourth section is called "Commentary," including a piece on fictionalizing Lewis, written after the fact of the novel and published in Mythprint #341. Other essays in this section include thoughts on the culture and craft relevant to the fictive works under our purview. One such, "Deus ex Machina Reversed" was published at Mere Orthodoxy. The third section, "The Triologue," is devoted to essays written specifically for the thesis paper--and its project which ultimately extrapolated into the Travelogue. The hope to produce Fantastic Travelogue: Mark Twain and CS Lewis Talk Things over in The Hereafter was itself the raison d'être for the thesis paper. One of these essays was published in Extrapolation, Spring 2007.
