C.S. Lewis, Thomas Derrick, and Screwtape

C.S. Lewis, Thomas Derrick, and Screwtape Six hitherto unpublished letters and a poetic postcard represent C.S. Lewis’s side of a correspondence in the early 1940s with the artist and illustrator Thomas Derrick. The letters discuss the possibility, which was never realised, of an illustrated edition of The Screwtape Letters and intriguingly indicate that Lewis and the artist discussed other collaborative possibilities, most notably a project on the virtues and the vices, also sadly unrealised. Lewis sent Derrick an early sketch of Screwtape. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Inklings Studies Edinburgh University Press

Abstract

Six hitherto unpublished letters and a poetic postcard represent C.S. Lewis’s side of a correspondence in the early 1940s with the artist and illustrator Thomas Derrick. The letters discuss the possibility, which was never realised, of an illustrated edition of The Screwtape Letters and intriguingly indicate that Lewis and the artist discussed other collaborative possibilities, most notably a project on the virtues and the vices, also sadly unrealised. Lewis sent Derrick an early sketch of Screwtape.
