Untitled typescript beginning "God, like every other objective reality, is perceived by man in four dimensions" by Dorothy L. Sayers, ca. 1943
Scope and Contents
Two rough typescript drafts of the same essay (pp. 1-26 and 27-52) which are substantially the same, with edits hand-written in the margins by the author. Sayers referred to this as a “first/bedrock portion” of her essay submission. Her editor, Lynx, referred to it as “MS No. 1” and dismissed it as “too highbrow and too difficult to understand.” This corresponds with Dorothy L. Sayers Manuscripts collection: MS-98. 52pp.
