Abstract
Answers criticism of Lewis for setting up “caricatures” of villains in That Hideous Strength and then killing them hideously at the Belbury banquet. Notes “the contrast of festival and horror is [...] a very old element in literature and human culture” and the relationship of humans to animals is appropriate to Romance as Frye defines it. Includes a map of Edgestow by Patterson.
