21. The Lost Tools Of Learning
    Essay on education and teaching.  
    http://www.gbt.org/text/sayers.html
    
    Extractions: However, it is in the highest degree improbable that the reforms I propose will ever be carried into effect. Neither the parents, nor the training colleges, nor the examination boards, nor the boards of governors, nor the ministries of education, would countenance them for a moment. For they amount to this: that if we are to produce a society of educated people, fitted to preserve their intellectual freedom amid the complex pressures of our modern society, we must turn back the wheel of progress some four or five hundred years, to the point at which education began to lose sight of its true object, towards the end of the Middle Ages. Before you dismiss me with the appropriate phrasereactionary, romantic, mediaevalist, laudator temporis acti (praiser of times past), or whatever tag comes first to handI will ask you to consider one or two miscellaneous questions that hang about at the back, perhaps, of all our minds, and occasionally pop out to worry us. When we think about the remarkably early age at which the young men went up to university in, let us say, Tudor times, and thereafter were held fit to assume responsibility for the conduct of their own affairs, are we altogether comfortable about that artificial prolongation of intellectual childhood and adolescence into the years of physical maturity which is so marked in our own day? To postpone the acceptance of responsibility to a late date brings with it a number of psychological complications which, while they may interest the psychiatrist, are scarcely beneficial either to the individual or to society. The stock argument in favor of postponing the school-leaving age and prolonging the period of education generally is there there is now so much more to learn than there was in the Middle Ages. This is partly true, but not wholly. The modern boy and girl are certainly taught more subjectsbut does that always mean that they actually know more?

    Extractions: In this final book of the series, Sayers displays her attained mastery of the genre. Peter and Harriet are married at last and off on their honeymoon. Unfortunately, a murder takes place in their home, and they're off. Busman's Honeymoon's mystery is good, and the puzzle first-rate, but a great deal of the book involves the pair adjusting to married life and to each other. This book is a tour de force and not to be missed by mystery lovers.... Gaudy Night is a tale of intrigue within an intellectual setting. The crime is not actually a physical wrong committed against any number of people, but is more of an intellectual crime committed against an educational institutition. The protagonist, Harriet Vane is asked to return to her alma mater Oxbridge, to solve the mystery of who might be doing the mechevious acts against certain Dons within the school. Vane herself has just recently been ac... When copywriter Victor Dean falls to his death down a spiral staircase in the respected British advertising firm of Pym's, the fatality looks accidental. However, the victim's sister finds a suspicious half-written letter among his effects and prevails upon the head of the firm to hire private investigator Lord Peter Wimsey undercover as a copywriter so he can look into the case. It turns out there is much more to the death, and the victim's life, than m...

    Sayers letter to Charles Williams about her fascination with Dante.  
    http://www.ctlibrary.com/ch/2001/issue70/4.18.html
    
    Extractions: In 1944 British writer Dorothy Sayers (1893-1957), already famous as the author of Lord Peter Wimsey detective novels, holed up in an air raid shelter with Dante's Divine Comedy . She finished Inferno —in Italian—in five days, then wrote the following letter to Charles Williams. She knew Williams through C. S. Lewis's "Inklings" group and through Williams's book on Dante, The Figure of Beatrice . Sayers's fascination with Dante resulted in an ambitious translation of the Comedy (used throughout this issue) and numerous essays and lectures. 24 Newland Street

32. Thrones, Dominations
    Jill Patton Walsh explains some of the history and difficulties behind her completion of the novel; includes a partial letter from Sayers about her ideas.  
    http://www.greenbay.co.uk/books/folio.html
    
    Extractions: Dear Helen, So far as I can see the thematic structure of Thrones, Dominations is going to work out something like the enclosed. I have drawn it very prettily because I like fooling about with different coloured inks. PH (the green line) stands for the Peter-Harriet combination. M (red line) and V (purple line) being respectively the murderer and the victim for whom I must try to find names. The scheme looks nice and neat; and is very nearly symmetrical except for the little bulge of PH emotional development, which leads to the solution. I find this scheme so satisfactory that it hardly seems worth while writing the book, does it? PS I have just found a grand motto for the book from PARADISE LOST: Thrones and imperial Powers, off-spring of heav'n Princes of Hell? Thus wrote Dorothy L Sayers to Helen Simpson, her friend and fellow crime-writer in July 1936. She wrote six chapters, in very rough draft, and then abandoned the project, getting crosser and crosser with her publisher, Victor Gollancz, when he kept on announcing it as a forthcoming title. Eventually he gave up hope of it, and his author went on to other things to writing religious plays, and to translating Dante. What had gone wrong? I find it hard to believe that simply drawing the plot diagram had really made the book seem not worth writing, although I don't go in for plot diagrams myself. Had Dorothy Sayers got tired of Peter Wimsey? But nobody else has, in the forty odd years since then, nobody who ever liked him in the first place. Perhaps there was some awful glitch in the concept of the book which she suddenly saw? This possibility was the one I was afraid of, when the literary trustees of her estate gave me the six chapters and the plot diagram, and asked me if I thought I could finish the book.
