Letter from C.S. Lewis to Sir Henry Willink about the offer to take the chair of Medieval and Renaissance English.
Writes to Sir Henry in his capacity as Vice-Chancellor of the University [he was also Master of Magdalene College].
He felt much pleasure and gratitude in accepting the chair of Medieval and Renaissance English. As to the start of the tenure he would be guided by the electors but he preferred a January start to October as he was examining in their Final Honours School and he needed time for his own work and to prepare lectures. The other reason for the preference was that as he had left it so late in accepting his old College might feel they had insufficient notice of his departure.
Suggests times to come over and visit him in Cambridge.
