C. S. Lewis's Surprised by Joy as Romantic Metanarrative

Dr. Heather Hess of Covenant College, Lookout Mtn., Georgia USA "C. S. Lewis's Metanarrative: Surprised by Joy as Romantic Autobiography" Intro: C. S. Lewis’s romanticism has never been a subject for debate; almost as soon as Surprised by Joy (1955) was published, reviewers were calling it “the conversion of a pure romantic,” and scholars have spent a great deal of time detailing various romantic notions in Lewis’s theology, philosophy and art. What has not been duly examined is the intricate thematic and formal role romanticism plays in his autobiography, and thus in Lewis’s conception of self. Surprised by Joy is, at heart, romantic autobiography, detailing Lewis’s movement through a Romantic metanarrative. This lecture will define that metanarrative--as it appears in the writings of Blake, Wordsworth, and others--and demonstrate its role as the central structuring agent of Lewis’ self-construction in Surprised by Joy.
