Summary

Most people know C. S. Lewis through his writings, but in his lifetime he was first and foremost a teacher. Now those who were influenced by what they learned from his teaching offer a unique view of one of the most influential Christian writers of all time. Fifteen friends, colleagues, and students offer their most intimate memories and personal perspectives on Lewis the teacher and Lewis the man. These recollections portray him in all his humanity: both the irascibility and the brilliance, both the ferocity of his intellectual precision and the eagerness of his curiosity. This book celebrates the legacy that grew from his teaching as well as from his writing. C. S. Lewis Remembered provides a rich tapestry of voices, all reflecting on the profound and lasting influence he has had on their lives and careers.
