| Tolkien hated his friend's fictional gallimaufry, yet there is nothing ersatz about the emotions the Narnia books arouse. The prolific Niven here gathers a gallimaufry of his writings, both fiction and nonfiction. What follows is a combination: (1) useful treatments of Platonic and other sources including a nuanced assessment of the proportion and relation of Platonism to Christianity in Spenser; (2) a gallimaufry of sensitive explications of selected passages linked by Spenser's repetition of a word or phrase such as "night" and "day," explications some of which could stand alone as brief essays. |
