The twelve original essays in this volume are joined by a common interest in the forms the shadows of an author’s imagination can take and in analyzing the shapes that can cast such shadows. This collection will be of interest to a wide audience: the general reader, the science-fiction devotee, and students of twentieth-century literature. Taken together, the essays provide a comprehensive view and critical evaluation of the fantasy fiction of Lewis, Tolkien, and Williams.

Shadows of imagination
Literary criticism was so readable in the 60s! My God!
Though I guess it helps that this was a book devoted to literary criticism of genre fiction that was written in the 1960s, which probably causes some selective pressure in terms of what the contributors would be like.
Of course my favorite paper is the one by the Romantic poetry expert, but I did feel as though most of them, even the ones about Williams, whom I've never read, had something inspiring in them. Even the Epilogue was good where it quoted from Lewis on Joy.
The rest of the Epilogue. . .
I mean, I have reason to believe that the 70s was when literary criticism stopped being so readable, anyway, even if that wasn't quite the way I was expecting it to become less readable.
