Sinopsis

A repackaged edition of the revered author’s collection of four poems: "Dymer," "Launcelot," "The Nameless Isle," and "The Queen of Drum."

C. S. Lewis—the great British writer, scholar, lay theologian, broadcaster, Christian apologist, and author of Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, The Chronicles of Narnia, and many other beloved classics—was also a talented poet. In this collection of four longer works of verse, Lewis displays his deep love for medieval and Renaissance poetry and themes, influences that shaped—and resonate through—his fiction.

Acerca del autor

Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century and arguably one of the most influential writers of his day. He was a Fellow and Tutor in English Literature at Oxford University until 1954, when he was unanimously elected to the Chair of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge University, a position he held until his retirement. He wrote more than thirty books, allowing him to reach a vast audience, and his works continue to attract thousands of new readers every year. His most distinguished and popular accomplishments include Out of the Silent Planet, The Great Divorce, The Screwtape Letters, and the universally acknowledged classics in The Chronicles of Narnia. To date, the Narnia books have sold over 100 million copies and have been transformed into three major motion pictures.

De la contraportada

Step into the world of fantasy: from the famed Lancelot’s adventures to the enchanting woodland that becomes the home of the Queen of Drum, Narrative Poems showcases Lewis’s deep love for storytelling and wonder. While Lewis is often known for his fiction and philosophical nonfiction, he was also a talented poet and often said that the narrative poem was his favorite form of literary expression. This collection of four longer poems—“Dymer,” “Launcelot,” “The Nameless Isle,” and “The Queen of Drum”—reveals Lewis’s passion for fantasy that shaped his beloved works of fiction.
