Weltanschauung and Apologia: A Study in C. S. Lewis
By Elias Hofer and Paul Chamberlain
()
About this ebook
The notion of worldview is critical to the formulation of views. One's worldview determines how reality is perceived. It's characterized as a set of glasses through which we view our surroundings and interpret experiences. It accounts for the perspective we bring to every event in life and helps explain why different people "see" things differently when looking at the same data. The same evidence may lead one person to reject a particular conclusion, while moving another to embrace what the other rejected. Lewis's major works are explored at length in this book. Although much has been written about Lewis, Hofer's examination of the influence of worldview on his work is unique.
