Abstract

This article discusses a short non-fiction piece by Clive Hamilton published in 1945 in The Strand Magazine, which was attributed to C.S. Lewis in Index to The Strand Magazine, 1891–1950. The author makes the case that the article, titled ‘Cricketer's Progress: A Famous Reputation and What Became of It’ and about the famous cricket player Maurice Tate, was written by Lewis under a pseudonym that he had used before. This case is made, the author explains, despite the high probability that it was not by him, for the mere fun of arguing the point and as a pretense for discussing Lewis's use of pseudonyms.
