Dorothy L Sayers: creative mind and the holy trinity
No full textHuman beings have no language with which to speak about God and their experiences of God except that language which they also use of themselves and of their experiences of each other. The doctrine of the Trinity points to the presence and action of God in the world through Jesus Christ. The search for human analogies with the doctrine of the Trinity has occupied the minds and hearts of theologians and philosophers since earliest Christian times. Many of the attempts made to provide a paradigm by which the Holy Trinity might best be articulated in human thinking have fallen short of the ideals at which they aimed. As a result, there is a paucity of material from which the teacher of theology may draw in explicating this apparently most complicated of doctrines. While the search was confined to the field of pure theology, it seemed fruitless. Dorothy L Sayers, a writer of detective novels, engaged in that search almost by accident as she moved from detective fiction to religious drama in the second phase of her writing career. By using her own experience of creative activity, she saw a striking resemblance between the creative activity of God and that of God's creatures. That this activity possessed a threefold structure allowed Sayers to discern a human analogy with the doctrine of the Trinity which would serve where others had failed. Her thinking was set out in her book The Mind of the Maker in 1941. However, her achievement in this volume has largely been ignored. It is time for a re-appraisal of that achievement in order both to re-present it to those engaged in theological deliberations now and to investigate how it was received in its own day and why it may have been overlooked hitherto

Paper Session 6-C: Sayers, Lewis, Chesterton, and the Ties that Bind
No full textWell Met: Ties of Common Sense and Humor in the Friendship of G. K. Chesterton and Dorothy L. Sayers - Barbara M. Prescott
The far-reaching circle of influence that surrounded C.S. Lewis included both Dorothy L. Sayers and G.K. Chesterton. Chesterton and Sayers, throughout the course of their careers, influenced one another\u27s writings and thinking. In this paper, I explore the roots of the philosophical friendship, similar language styles, and instances in which Chesterton and Sayers influenced one another\u27s writing careers as well as the ways in which this relationship radiated from, and at times diverged from, that of Lewis. Sayers became acquainted with the work of Chesterton from an early age (1909) by his publication of Orthodoxy. While at Oxford, Sayers attended Chesterton\u27s lectures, as they exchanged ideas and conversed often. Their mutual appreciation of humor, poetry, and common sense in writing served to forge a long-term relationship past Oxford as Sayers began her publishing career in poetry and later in playwriting. Through study at the Marion Wade Center in Wheaton of the early poetry and writings of Dorothy L. Sayers, I have researched her letters and notebooks during Sayers\u27 Oxford years, finding repeated references to Chesterton from 1912-1920 and am happy to share the results, to date, of this on-going research.
Letter correspondence between C. S. Lewis and Dorothy L. Sayers - Marsha Daigle-Williamson
Among the many friendships and literary acquaintances C. S. Lewis had, his relationship with Dorothy L. Sayers cannot be overlooked. After her first letter to Lewis in 1942, expressing her admiration for The Screwtape Letters and inviting him to write a volume for her Bridgewater series, there would follow dozens of letters between them primarily dealing with literary issues, other authors, and each other\u27s works. Sayers\u27s interest in Dante, kindled by her reading of Charles Williams\u27s The Figure of Beatrice (1943), led her to translate The Divine Comedy and write two books on that poem. From that point on, one of the main topics of their letters concerned Dante, Lewis\u27s favorite poet. What began as literary discussions between professional writers moved to friendship and personal sharing and by 1954 Lewis\u27s letters address her as Dorothy rather as Miss Sayers.
C. S. Lewis: Mere Christian, Evangelist, Author, and Friend - Mark R. Hall
The influence of C. S. Lewis on Christianity in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries cannot be overestimated. Because of his gregarious personality and his prolific output of writings, he influenced many in his own time. He has touched and continues to make a difference in the lives of atheists, searchers, Protestants, and Catholics alike leading them to a deeper understanding of the Christian faith, especially through his life, letters, and literature. An examination of his methodology and his overarching philosophy will lead his readers to an understanding of his pervasive and lasting legacy
