Regreso Del Peregrino – (Spanish)
$14.99
Conocida como la primera novela de C. S. Lewis, esta elocuente, erudita y a menudo ingeniosa satira de la filosofia contemporanea sigue siendo relevante mas de 90 aos despues.
Siguiendo el modelo del famoso Progreso del peregrino de John Bunyan, El regreso del peregrino de C. S. Lewis representa una serie de primicias para Lewis: el primer libro que escribio tras su conversion al cristianismo, su primer libro de ficcion y el primer libro que publico con su propio nombre. En cierto sentido, es el registro de la propia busqueda de Lewis de sentido y satisfaccion espiritual, una busqueda que finalmente le condujo al cristianismo.
Esta es la historia del peregrino Juan y su odisea hacia una isla encantadora que ha creado en el un intenso anhelo; un misterioso y dulce deseo. La persecucion de este deseo por parte de Juan le lleva a traves de aventuras con personas como el Sr. Ilustracion, Media Media, el Sr. Mamon, el Sr. Sensato y el Sr. Humanista, y a traves de lugares como el Valle de la Humillacion.
Aunque aqui los dragones y los gigantes son distintos de los de El progreso del peregrino de Bunyan, la alegoria de Lewis cumple la misma funcion de permitir al autor decir de forma sencilla y mediante la fantasia lo que de otro modo habria exigido una filosofia de la religion en toda regla.
La alegoria de Lewis sigue siendo una ingeniosa satira de las modas culturales, un vivido relato de los peligros espirituales y una historia iluminadora para generaciones de antiguos y nuevos peregrinos.
The Pilgrim’s Regress
Known as C. S. Lewis’s first novel, this eloquent, erudite, and often wittysatire of contemporary philosophy is still relevant over 90 years later.
Modeled after John Bunyan’s famous Pilgrim’s Progress, C. S. Lewis’s Pilgrim’s Regress represents several firsts for Lewis–the first book he wrote after his conversion to Christianity, his first book of fiction, and the first book he published under his own name. It is, in a sense, the record of Lewis’s own search for meaning and spiritual satisfaction–a search that eventually led him to Christianity.
Here is the story of the pilgrim John and his odyssey to an enchanting island which has created in him an intense longing; a mysterious, sweet desire. John’s pursuit of this desire takes him through adventures with such people as Mr. Enlightenment, Media Halfways, Mr. Mammon, Mother Kirk, Mr. Sensible, and Mr. Humanist and through such cities as Thrill and Eschropolis as well as the V

Si Dios No Escuchase – (Spanish)
$13.99Compuestas como una coleccion de envios ficticios a su amigo Malcolm, Si Dios no escuchase: Cartas a Malcolm acerca de la oracion considera esta muestra basica de devocion en su forma, contenido y regularidad, y las maneras en que refleja nuestra fe y moldea nuestra forma de creer.
En esta edicion de la ficticia coleccion de cartas de C. S. Lewis, el venerado autor reflexiona sobre la naturaleza de la oracion: que es, como funciona y como debe practicarse. La oracion es un don puro, un gran regalo de Dios. Asi lo entiende tambien Lewis. Con su brillantez habitual, el autor utiliza su correspondencia con otro intelectual para arrojar luz sobre cuestiones como:
*Cual es el valor de la oracion?
*Es la oracion un soliloquio que nadie escucha?
*Que ocurre realmente cuando oramos?
*Tiene sentido orar por los difuntos?
*Por que es importante la liturgia?En sus argumentos, Lewis muestra una fuerte conviccion y, al mismo tiempo, una gran sensibilidad y comprension hacia las debilidades y temores del hombre. Aunque Lewis nunca pretendio que este fuera un libro de instrucciones sobre como orar, descubrio que el formato de correspondencia le permitia compartir sus reflexiones de forma dinamica y personal.
Si Dios no escuchase: Cartas a Malcom acerca de la oracion fue el ultimo libro que termino C. S. Lewis. Publicado postumamente en enero de 1964, tres meses despues de su muerte, es uno de los mejores libros de Lewis, aunque quiza no uno de los mas conocidos.
Letters To Malcom: Chiefly on Prayer
Composed as a collection of fictitious dispatches to his friend, Malcolm, Letters to Malcolm: Chiefly on Prayer considers this basic display of devotion in its form, content, and regularity, and the ways it both reflects our faith and shapes how we believe.
In this edition of C. S. Lewis’s fictitious collection of letters, the revered author ruminates on the nature of prayer–what it is, how it works, and how it should be practiced. Prayer is a pure gift, a great gift from God. This is also how Lewis understands it. With his usual brilliance, the author uses his correspondence with another intellectual to shed light on questions such as:
*What is the value of prayer?
*Is prayer a soliloquy that no one listens to?
*What is happening when we pray?
*Does it make sense to pray for the deceased?
*Why is liturgy important?In his arguments, Lewis shows a strong conviction and, at the same time, a great sensitivity and understanding for the weakne
