Le contexte c'est la nécro écrite par Lewis pour Tolkien dans le Times : http://ghgraham.org/text/jrrtolkien1892_obit.html
Citation : He was a man of "cronies" rather than of general society and was always best after midnight (he had a Johnsonian horror of going to bed) and in some small circle of intimates where the tone was at once Bohemian, literary, and Christian (for he was profoundly religious).
He has been described as "the best and worst talker in Oxford" - worst for the rapidity and indistinctness of his speech, and best for the penetration, learning, humour and "race" of what he said. C. L. Wrenn, R. B. McCallum of Pembroke, H. V. D. Dyson of Merton, C. S. Lewis of Magdelen, and Charles Williams were among those who most often made his audience (and interrupters) on such occasions.
What's the point of all this pedantry if you can't get a detail like this right?
