This essay examines in detail a C.S. Lewis letter, published in The Times Literary Supplement that was, in fact, an example of ‘mock-criticism’ (as in ‘mock-epic’), being a satiric parody of an argument made by eminent Shakespeare scholar John Dover Wilson. Lewis published his ‘minor disagreement’ in March 1950, to which Dover Wilson responded with appreciation for Lewis's good humour but continued disagreement on the point of contention – that Shakespeare would ever include lines of verse in a section of his prose. By close analysis, the essay demonstrates how the editor of The Collected Letters inadvertently ‘corrupted’ Lewis's original by his formatting and editorial changes. Three versions of the letter are compared to show the specifics of the corruption. Further, Lewis's long critical encounter with Dover Wilson from the late 1920s onward as well as his little-known role as a textual criticism scholar at Oxford are demonstrated to provide the context for interpreting and appreciating the letter. Finally, two other Lewis letters, previously pointed out by Stephanie Derrick (neither published in The Collected Letters) are presented from the Dover Wilson archives as evidence of the cordial scholarly relationship that eventually developed between the two. The essay shows Lewis as a clever, thorough, combative, yet friendly scholar (though perhaps not always all at the same time) engaging in and, in fact, initiating important discussions with perhaps the most significant Shakespearean textual scholar of his time.

This essay brings to light a newly identified and previously unpublished poem by C.S. Lewis and Owen Barfield. The poem is written in Latin and is entitled ‘De Arca Noe’. The essay presents the poem for the first time, transcribing the Latin (with a prose translation) and providing detailed context. The contextual discussion situates the poem within other poetic collaborations by Lewis and Barfield, explains why it has hitherto slipped under the radar of Lewis and Barfield scholars based on its archival context (particularly at the Bodleian), considers earlier fragmentary texts which are closely related to ‘De Arca Noe’, proposes a date (with rationale) for this undated manuscript text, and provides a full transcription with discussion of the physical copies of the collaborative working draft of ‘De Arca Noe’, as well as a translation with notes to the Latin text. Finally, it considers ‘De Arca Noe’ in relation to Lewis’s other more famous poetic handling of the Noah story, ‘The Sailing of the Ark’.
这篇文章揭示了 C.S. Lewis 和欧文-巴菲尔德新发现的一首以前未曾发表过的诗。这首诗用拉丁文写成，名为《De Arca Noe》。文章首次介绍了这首诗，抄录了拉丁文（附散文译文），并提供了详细的背景资料。背景讨论将这首诗置于刘易斯和巴菲尔德合作的其他诗歌中，根据其档案背景（尤其是在伯德雷恩图书馆）解释了为什么这首诗一直被刘易斯和巴菲尔德的学者们忽略，考虑了与《De Arca Noe》密切相关的早期零散文本、为这一未注明日期的手稿文本提出了日期（并说明了理由），提供了完整的抄录本，并讨论了《De Arca Noe》合作工作稿的实物副本，还提供了翻译本，并对拉丁文本作了注释。最后，它将 "De Arca Noe "与刘易斯对诺亚故事的另一个更著名的诗歌处理 "The Sailing of the Ark "进行了比较。
