Gebundenes Buch

Heroes and Kings

Beschreibung

Heroes and Kings was designed by Hubert J. Foss, and the wood engravings were made by Norman Janes. Three hundred copies, of which two hundred and fifty were for sale, were printed in the year 1930. Out of print since then, the Charles Williams Society and the Apocryphile Press are proud to present this new edition. Charles Williams was one of the finest-not to mention one of the most unusual-theologians of the twentieth century. His mysticism is palpable-the unseen world interpenetrates ours at every point, and spiritual exchange occurs all the time, unseen and largely unlooked for. His novels are legend, and as a member of the Inklings, he contributed to the mythopoetic revival in contemporary culture.

Autor

Author and scholar Charles Williams (1886-1945) joined, in 1908, the staff of the Oxford University Press, the publishing house in which he worked for the rest of his life. Throughout these years, poetry, novels, plays, biographies, history, literary criticism, and theology poured from his pen. At the beginning of the Second World War the publishing house was evacuated to Oxford where, in addition to his own writing and his editorial work for the Press, he taught in the University.
