Letters about religion

The file comprises manuscript drafts of writings relating to religion, principally to the form and significance of the Liturgy. Very many of these writings appear to have been inspired by David Jones' increasing disquiet at liturgical change in the Roman Catholic church from the mid 1950s onwards. Some of the drafts are of letters to The Tablet (and possibly also to other periodicals) and others appear to be of letters to private correspondents. A few drafts can be identified as being of part of 'A Christmas Message 1960' (The Dying Gaul, pp. 167-76). One draft has on its dorse a pencil sketch of a female head in profile.
