C.S. Lewis on joy

---

C. S. Lewis is a very rich and rewarding author, and joy rests as one of the central elements in his thought, and one of the major components of his conversion. A scholarly volume should be written exploring this whole avenue of Lewis. This thoughts on joy and its implications to humanity touchs almost everything he has ever written. Little books like these cannot capture the magnitude of this central theme in the works of C. S. Lewis. The importance to this theme cannot be overstated when regarding Lewis, and it also explains much of what makes literature in general and myth (in the Tolkien and Lewis sense) in specific so important, because it creates a longing that can only be satisfied in Christ. Go elsewhere to gain understanding of this spiritual yearning that shows up not only in Lewis but in so much of art, even in naturalistic works such as SISTER CARRIE..
