The text claimed that the book *That Hideous Strength* was written "decades before" Lavrenti Beria was in power as chief of Soviet secret police, but both the book and Beria's time in power date to the 1940s. Edited that. Sorry for not leaving a note with the edit.

For the entry under "Evilutionary Biologist," I'm not sure what to make of the last sentence- "This was the mindset that was politically correct at the time." Whose politics? There were a lot of different political views on both the left and right. Some of them were in favor of mechanistic conditioning (the behaviorist psychologists like Skinner, for instance). Others were not. I'd suggest deleting the sentence or replacing it with something like "Lewis saw this as a trend in the political and psychological ideas of the time."

Shouldn't this page be split into four? One page each for tropes specific to each book, plus a main page for series-wide tropes, a la The Chronicles of Narnia?

I went ahead and did it; tropes for Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, and That Hideous Strength can now be found on the appropriate pages.
