Collected Plays Charles Williams Introduction by John Heath-Stubbs 416 pp. / 5 x 8 / Trade Paper / $29.95 Regent ISBN 1-57383-366-5 Reprint of Oxford University Press edition, 1963 Royalties: 150.00 prepaid to Higham Need cover This volume contains the complete dramatic works of Charles Williams. Williams' plays can be enjoyed at more than one level. Though what they have in common is the author's gift for poetic expression, they also demonstrate his range. Complex theology, knockabout farce, and historical tragedy are all represented here. The plays are simple enough for amateur performances...

Henry VII is less spectacular than his descendants, but not less interesting or even exciting. He supplanted a dynasty and subordinated an aristocracy; he collected a treasure and created a fleet--and created the engine of monarchy.

When Williams died in 1945 there remained a number of essays which had appeared in periodicals and elsewhere, many of which contain important statements of his ideas. A selection of these is compiled in this volume. (Christian)

This reprint of poetry from one of the 20th centurys most unusual theologians shows why Williams made such a contribution to the mythopoetic revival in contemporary culture.

This collection of poetry showcases the authors mysticism and his belief that the unseen world interpenetrates the seen world at every point.

Williams was one of the finest--not to mention one of the most unusual--theologians of the 20th century. His mysticism is palpable, and spiritual exchange occurs all the time--unseen and largely unlooked for. His novels are legend, his poetry profound, and as a member of the Inklings, he contributed to the mythopoetic revival in contemporary culture.

Williams, one of the most unusual theologians of the 20th century, reveals through poetry how the unseen world interpenetrates the seen world at every point, and that spiritual exchange occurs all the time, unseen and largely unlooked for.
