Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. A very well preserved copy which is pretty much fine with just a few minor scuffs to the otherwise fresh looking green cloth boards. The gilt title lettering is lovely and crisp to the spine. There's a little mild foxing to the page block edge and sporadically throughout the book, very occasional moderate but, really, hardly noticeable. There's a charming book plate/Ex libris of one Joseph Barker stuck on the front paste down page. Otherwise the pages are beautifully clean throughout. This is a wonderful copy of this very scarce first impression.

FIRST EDITION, occasional light foxing throughout, pp. [viii], 150, crown 8vo, original green cloth, backstrip lettered in gilt, edges and endpapers lightly spotted, the flyleaf with ownership inscription of 'Basil Mitchell, Keble College, Oxford' (see below), very good. A scholarly tussle engendered by Lewis's response to Tillyard's 1930 work on Milton. Lewis objected to Tillyard's central tenet that 'Paradise Lost' was 'really about [.] the true state of Milton's mind when he wrote it' (Tillyard, 'Milton', p. 237); in Lewis's own copy of the book he classifies this remark of Tillyard's as 'the arch error', whilst a similar assertion two pages later receives terse damnation - 'fatal'. Expanding on his disapproval with an essay 'The Personal Heresy in Criticism', Lewis drew a rejoinder from Tillyard, and these along with two further articles and responses between the two men are collected in this volume 'The Personal Heresy: A Controversy'. Lewis relished the battle and maintained a mocking affection for his opponent - 'he's the nicest donkey you can imagine', he wrote in a letter from 1944. The copy of Oxford philosopher, Basil Mitchell, dating from his time at Keble College, where he was a tutor from 1947; he had previously attended Queen's College, Oxford and was later appointed Nolloth Professor of the Philosophy of the Christian Religion at Oxford University and Fellow of Oriel College, Oxford. Mitchell was a member of the Socratic Club at the same time as Lewis, and succeeded him as its President.

First Edition Signed
First edition of this collection of arguments on the subjective and objective positions of writings, with C.S. Lewis arguing the latter. Presentation copy, inscribed by C.S. Lewis on the front free endpaper, "R.W. Fletcher from C.S.L. March 20th 1940." In near fine condition. Exceedingly rare signed and inscribed by Lewis. A series of articles, three each by C.S. Lewis and E. M. W. (Eustace Mandeville Wetenhall) Tillyard, The Personal Heresy is concerned with whether a piece of imaginative writing, particularly poetry, is primarily a reflection of the author's personality (Tillyard's position) or is about something external to the author (Lewis's position). The two positions may be summarized briefly as the subjective position (Tillyard) and the objective position (Lewis). In general, Lewis attempts to keep poetry within the reach of the common person, while Tillyard thinks of the poet as a person who is "a cut above the common person.".
