Lewis conveys objectivist values in a futher sense. Just as Spirit must incarnate itself in creation, so the artist necessarily incarnates himself in using the materils of his craft, the moralist in beneficent action...More completely than elsewhere, in the "Summa" he condems also what Alexander calls the "dangerous practice of introspection.*" At our most spiritual, we look outward and seek to incarnate ourselves in what we discover, make or do.
Lionel Adey.

*"The mind which broods over itself in dangerous practial introspection abandons itself to the enjoyment of itself."
