Essays: Triologue: Kepler, Twain, Lewis

The Essays are comprised in three sections. The first is "neophyte papers." These four essays were written in the mid 1980s when I began thinking about CS Lewis on paper in my limited way. The second section, "Familiarizing Papers," contains two essays written for the course in humanities. This got me thinking of a dialogue, here called a Triologue, between Johannes Kepler, CS Lewis, and Mark Twain. Also a third essay, on fictionalizing Lewis, was written after the fact of the novel and published in Mythprint #341. The third section, "The Triologue," is devoted to essays written specifically for the thesis paper; and its project which ultimately extrapolated into the Travelogue. The hope to produce Fantastic Travelogue: Mark Twain and CS Lewis Talk Things over in The Hereafter was itself the raison d'être for the thesis paper. One of these essays was published in Extrapolation, Spring 2007.
