Synopsis

SERIES: C. S. LEWIS: REVELATION AND THE CHRIST (Book 1)
C. S. Lewis--Revelation, Conversion and Apologetics
This is a series of books which have a common theme: the understanding of Christ, and therefore the revelation of God, in the work of C. S. Lewis. These books are a systematic study of Lewis's theology, Christology and doctrine of revelation; as such they draw on his life and work. They are written for academics and students, but also, crucially, for those people, ordinary Christians, without a theology degree who enjoy and gain sustenance from reading Lewis's work.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

C. S. Lewis--Revelation, Conversion and Apologetics
Endorsements
"The importance of C. S. Lewis as an apologist for 'mere Christianity' remains undiminished nearly fifty years after his death. The intensification of questions about the uniqueness of Jesus Christ and the significance of his life and work has if anything made him more important. Paul Brazier has done the church and the academy a great service in this . . . serious and accessible study of Lewis."
The Very Rev. Dr. Justyn Terry, Dean, President and Associate Professor of Systematic Theology, Trinity School for Ministry, Ambridge Pennsylvania

"Comments and publications on C. S. Lewis have become increasingly sterile since his death in 1963--mere footnotes to the champion of 'mere Christianity.' So what a joy it is to find, as we do in this first volume of Paul Brazier's painstaking study of Lewis's thought, a genuine work of scholarship that is not only worthy of the great man but also provides for us what Lewis never did himself: a systematic philosophical theology of his religious method and beliefs."
Dr. Andrew Walker, Emeritus Professor of Theology, Religion, and Culture, King's College, University of London

"Paul Brazier's new book performs two functions: it reveals the strength and depth of C. S. Lewis's contribution to modern Christianity, and it demonstrates the desirability of the art of apologetics in the contemporary world. As always, the writing is clear and direct, and the author has the ability to convey complex ideas and information to the non-specialist reader without surrendering any intellectual rigor."
Dr. Brian Horne, Retired Lecturer in Systematic Theology King's College, University of London

"C.S. Lewis's writings reflect a profound and coherent theological vision. This series is the most ambitious systematic account ever offered of this vision, and will help raise Lewis scholarship to a new level."
Dr. Judith Wolfe, Supernumerary Teaching Fellow in Theology, St John's College, University of Oxford, Editor of The Journal of Inklings Studies
