The Latin Letters of C.S.Lewis. by LEWIS, C.S. and CALABRIA, Don Giovanni

South Bend, Indiana: St Augustine's Press, 1998. 1890318345. Translated and edited by Martin Moynihan. "In September 1947, after reading 'The Screwtape Letters' in Italian, Fr.Giovanni Calabria was moved to write the author, but he knew no English, so he addressed his letter in Latin. Thus began a correspondence that was to outlive Fr.Calabria himself (he died in December 1954 and was succeeded in the correspondence by Fr.Luigi Pedrollo)....More than any of his published works, 'The Latin Letters' shows the strong devotional side of Lewis, and contains letters ranging from Christian unity and modern European history to liturgical worship and general ethical behaviour. Moreover, these letters are often intimate and personal." Pp.126. Illustrated laminated boards. VG. .
