Narnia The Lion The Witch And The Wardrobe
The journey began in 1940, when the Nazi's began to invade England in the air raids of World War
ll. British children were sent away to live with strangers who volunteered to take them in and house
them until the war was over. The Pevensie children Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy were sent off to
live with professor Digory Kirke, who lived in the heart of the country outside of London. As the
children were sent off to stay safe and out of harm's way they found an adventure of their own in the
land of Narnia. "The Chronicles of Narnia: The lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" is a story with a
strong heroic influence. There are several heroes throughout the story: the Pevensie children and the

Literary Themes Of ' Narnia '
C.S Lewis created a magical, magnificently divine realm where the beauty of nature and its
creatures comes to life. C.S Lewis did an extraordinary job in incorporating the major literary
themes of Romanticism such as chaos, children, the others/outsider and imagination. Narnia
strategically uses allegory, such as Christianity to take the reader on a journey that displays the
message of young innocence, salvation, and hope. "Daughter of Eve...it is not something that I have
done...I'm doing it now in this very moment" (Lewis 20). This quote was a very powerful and an
important scene in Narnia. It sets the foundation of the conflict and displays the innocence and naive
qualities in children, such as the character Lucy. Jesus loved a ... Show more content on

The novel displays the balance between good and evil, loyalty and betrayal. Chapman believes that
the Queens tyranny characteristics charged her hunger "to reduce all things to one dead level, to
draw them back into herself" (Chapman 5). Applying this statement towards the book, this tactic is
exactly what the foul Witch hoped to accomplish with Edmund. The turkish delight that Edmund
develops a desire for is a direct representation of gluttony. Gluttony is a vile sin that prevents a
person of developing a spiritual healing, personal growth and development. Edmund is willing to
do, say and betray anyone to the White Witch in order to get the sweet treats his little heart craves.
Edmund betrayed his family...his own blood. Children tend to want things that they cannot have and
think that they know everything when it comes to listening and taking orders from older siblings or
adults. This was Edmunds problem. He used his need for power and status to fuel his motivation of
hating and turning his back of his siblings. Sometimes people can not listen to what a wise person is
trying to teach them, as a result they must learn for themselves. When the White Witch turned
around and betrayed Edmund, he got the wake up call he needed. This situation changed him for the
better because he became humble and selfless. Edmunds character served a hidden Christian
message of redemption and discovering salvation for his transgressions. No matter how far from the

Narnia Alternate Ending
Lucy entered Narnia for the first time. It was a dull and cold place. It reminded Lucy of London,
when it was snowing and the city felt sad and grey. Suddenly Lucy heard the sound of bushes
moving. She heard speaking and then WHOOSH. She was flung to a tree. Her vision being blurry,
she could make out a figure, a very small figure, tying her up against what felt like a tree. She could
still hear voices. As her vision came back to normal she could see a dwarf standing in front of her,
acting brave and strong. "Where am I? Why am I tied up? Who are you?" asked Lucy. "Hush,
creature, or whatever you are!" said the dwarf. "I'm Lucy, and I demand to be let go, right this

Then she remembered the book that she had read when she was a little girl. The main character from
the book was a fairy, and when there was a problem a magical ring would always appear on the
fairy's finger. She would place the ring on her forehead and the problem would always be resolved.
Lucy put this book into perspective of the situation that she was in at the moment. "Maybe if I try
and do what the fairy did in bad situations, maybe I might get out of this terrible mess!" she said
quietly with her head down. While the dwarf was standing on the firm snow, waiting for a reply.
Lucy managed to get her head down near were her arms were dangling, and she placed the ring on
her head. All of a sudden the ring disappeared, the ropes dropped that had held her hostage and she
was free to go. She made an immediate run from the dwarf and tree. Picking up pace, Lucy was at a
full sprint by a few minutes. She didn't want to get caught again by the dwarf. She just wanted to get
back to the professor's house. Just when she thought that everything was a fraction fine, she had
thought wrong. She came to a path that lead out to three different direction– left, right or straight
ahead. "Right, left, straight ahead, oh I don't know? She went straight ahead, making a risky
decision. Running ahead, looking back every once and a while, she still could see no sign of the

write more books but he felt too sad so he wrote a lot more until he retired from writing (Pbs.org

Narnia The Magician's Nephew Chapter Summaries
Reviewed by Seth Jarrett
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Magician's Nephew
Written by C.S. Lewis
*Contains Spoilers*
Genre – The genre of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Magician's Nephew is fantasy because the
events that occur, such as magic and talking animals as an example, could not occur in real life.
Plot Summary – The Chronicles of Narnia: The Magician's Nephew, by C.S. Lewis, is about a
young boy and girl named Digory and Polly, respectively, who are neighbors living in London.
Digory and his mother recently moved in with his Aunt Letty and Uncle Andrew after his mother
became deathly ill and his father was away in India. One day, while playing in a tunnel in the rafters,
Polly and Digory accidentally wind up in Uncle Andrew's study which ... Show more content on

Polly: Polly is caring, firm, and knowledgeable as evidenced by her commonly making wise, well–
thought out decisions.
Uncle Andrew: Uncle Andrew is foolish, greedy, and selfish which is shown by him using Polly and
Digory to test the rings instead of doing so himself.
Aslan: Aslan is wise, courageous, and thoughtful for allowing Digory to take an apple to heal his
mother.
Jadis: Jadis is evil, cruel, and crafty, which is shown by her ability to trick various people into
trusting her just enough to use them for her own benefit.
Setting – This story primarily takes place in London and the world of Narnia, occurring in the late
1800's.
Theme – One theme of this book is "one bad choice does not have to define one's characters." I
believe this to be true because in the book, Digory made several mistakes that lead to bringing Jadis
to Narnia, but he helped protect them from her by retrieving the apple.
Mood – The mood of this book is encouraging because it shows that even throughout all the
negative choices and people, there were many people who were unselfish and cared for each other.
Some examples of this are Aslan giving Digory the apple to help his mother, Digory retrieving the
apple to protect Narnia, and Digory caring about his mother's

Aslan is the true king of Narnia, just like God is the true king on Earth; all of Narnia's occupants
have faith in him, and obey him. He generally comes to Narnia to aid its leaders and heroes on
important missions to thwart evil. He watches over Narnia constantly, although he does not solve all
of its problems for its residents. Aslan also periodically brings humans from Earth, both to help
Narnia, and to teach people an important lesson. As he appears in Narnia, Aslan is a large, talking
lion who is terrifying, magnificent and beautiful at the same time. He appears in different sizes to
different people, although he, himself never changes. As people grow in wisdom and character, they
can perceive more of his greatness. Aslan is very knowledgeable, and a powerful force of good, but
as Narnians often say, "He's not a tame lion." He is dangerous and an unconquerable enemy, but
unquestionably good.
Allegorically, Aslan's sacrifice represents Christ's crucifixion – the great act of sacrifice by which
Jesus is supposed to take on the sins on the world. Jesus forgave our sins and died for us, and
Edmund portrays us, the

Aslan In Narnia
C.S Lewis has drawn upon his Christian knowledge and has embedded numerous representations of
good into the text, Narnia. Aslan is the most obvious case of Lewis threading his ideology and
beliefs into his work. Aslan is portrayed as a pivotal Christian role –taking the form of a lion. When
it comes to the Christian view, Christ is referred to as 'The Lion of Judah.' Additionally, a lion is
supposedly the ultimate beast, superior to all other mammals. Much like how Christ is viewed vastly
higher than the human race. As seen in TLTWTW, Aslan is regarded as admirable and of higher
status. Furthermore, Jesus' crucifixion, death and resurrection is also referenced in Narnia. In the
Bible, Jesus laid down His life for us in order to save us. He

Essay on The World of Narnia: Allegory or Fairy Tale
Religion influences every aspect of a true devotee's life. After the year 1931, C.S. Lewis was a
devoted Christian and member of the Church of England. This means his faith when he wrote The
Chronicles of Narnia was influential in what went into the writing of these stories. This influence
was noticeable throughout all of the books in this series however it does not make the story
automatically anything more then a great story. There are several basics of the Christian faith that
C.S. Lewis believed and that are demonstrated in his writing. A few of the beliefs visible in these
books are as follows: the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the creation of the world and evil

Especially considering that in the book, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Aslan dies and is
resurrected on the stone table which creates a very similar parallel to Jesus Christ's death and
resurrection. However there are two great dilemmas when choosing to say that the series as a whole
is an allegory, and the first being the fact that C.S. Lewis was set against saying it was written as an
allegory. In a letter he wrote he states this, "If Aslan represented the immaterial Deity in the same
way in which Giant Despair represents Despair, he would be an allegorical figure. In reality
however he is an invention giving an imaginary answer to the question, "What might Christ become
like if there really were a world like Narnia and He chose to be incarnate and die and rise again in
that world as He actually has done in ours?" The second great dilemma is dealing with the fact that
the entire story does not lines up correctly for allegorical purposes. An event that was mentioned
previously that makes it appear allegorical is the death and resurrection of Aslan. The biggest
distinction however is why and for whom. Why did Aslan die compared to why and for whom did
Jesus Christ die. Jesus Christ died for the entire world according to John 3:16, "For God so loved the
world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him will not perish but have
everlasting life." Yet when Aslan died it was not something that saved the

the Witch and the Wardrobe, directed by Andrew Adamson. About three–quarters of the way into it,
I realized it was actually a really good movie with an amazing story. That is when my journey to
reading and watching anything dealing with Narnia began. The book, written by C.S. Lewis was
also pretty good; however, I would say the movie was was better because of the visual
representations of certain scenes that bring the whole story together. In the beginning of the book,

end up in a magical land called Narnia which contains many mystical and magical creatures such as
centaurs and half goat half human people but in this event they decide to explore the land and the

Narnia is no different for the book or the movie and each is slightly different starting off with the
book. The book's plot is very simplified and is not in much detail giving it a rushed feeling with
characters not being described to even some being hardly even mentioned. Along with that you have
some of the more important scenes being hardly described and it saying what the characters are
thinking and what the mood of the scene even is. The movie has a more in depth plot with amazing
CGI to give it the realistic feeling along with some new characters to help set and develop the plot to
make it feel more complete. This is shown very well in one of the last scenes with the centaur

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe written by C. S. Lewis is a film
adaptation of a fairly fantasy tale. It shows exciting adventures of four English children – Lucy,
Edmund, Peter and Susan – who found the magical land of Narnia by way of a wardrobe that they
found out in the house of elderly professor where they were sent by their mother. The scene in the
book stats with Peter's proposal to explore in the house to pass the time during a rainy day. Everyone

Lucy's first encounter with the wardrobe, and with Narnia, is during a game of hide–and–seek. She
asked her brothers and sister to play a game in order to spend their spare time. When little girl was
looking for a place to hide herself she discovered the wardrobe in one of the remote rooms in the
house. Here a special attention should be paid to music which plays an extremely significant role in
this scene. While children were looking for a place running through the house we can hear a lively,
energetic and cheerful song, but when Lucy entered the room with this wardrobe music changed
completely so the audience understand at once that this is as special place, where the magic happens.
The soundtrack "Only the Beginning of the Adventure" by Harry Gregson–Williams managed to
introduce the recurring theme for the land of Narnia. Upon entering the wardrobe, Lucy found
herself walking through trees, rather than the expected coats. At the next moment she is standing in
the middle of a snowy wood next to a lamp–post but not in the night–time as it was showed in the
book. She got into Narnia when it was day–time, probably it was afternoon. Thereby the filmmakers
demonstrated the whole beauty of winter, the winter in Narnia, as some kind of introduction of the
incredible world full of adventures, mythical creatures and magic. Next to the lamp–post she met

FINAL PROJECT: The Chronicles of Narnia
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe is the first book in the Chronicles
of Narnia series written by CS Lewis. The book series was such a great success that in 2008, the first
book was turned into a film. What many people may not realize is that CS Lewis wrote the book
series with a specific goal in mind: to showcase the word of God to different parts of the world
through an artistic lens.

parallelisms, allusions and symbolisms found in ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Lastly, the four children (Lucy, Edmund, Peter and Suzan) are human beings. They represent four
different kinds of people who have different encounters with God. For Peter, he is the skeptical type
of Christian. One who is doubtful by how God can use him to help build God's kingdom, yet at
times he forgets that it is only Christ who can defeat evil and not by his strength alone. Edmund is
the type of Christian who has sinned and fallen short many times along the road before choosing to
love and follow Christ. While Suzan is the type of Christian who has consistently doubted whether
or not Christ, even really exists before fully trusting God with the things that don't seem to make
sense. Lastly, Lucy represents the Christians who just love, follow and dedicate their lives to Christ
without hesitation and without doubt. Lucy's childlikeness showcases how Christians should love
and trust Christ with our lives.
Since the four children can be seen as symbolisms of human beings, their relationship with Aslan
shows a lot about the grace, mercy and overall character of God. One of the main examples where
this is seen is the grace that Aslan showed to Edmund who was a traitor. Despite Edmunds' choice to
prioritize Turkish delight over his family and his right as one of the king of Narnia, Aslan still
accepted Edmund into his army and not only that Edmund still inherited the kingdom of Narnia not
by his own works but by Aslan's

Allusions In The Chronicles Of Narnia
One Christian man who utilized and clearly enjoyed literature–both of fiction entertainment and
non–fiction–as a means of spreading the Christian worldview is C. S. Lewis. Lewis, though the joys
of the sub–genre of fantasy, managed to create an entertaining story while also upholding and
spreading the Christian worldview. One of his most famous works, The Chronicles of Narnia, is a
series filled with magic and the impossible, but the entire series is riddled with allusions to the
Bible, allusions that fell into place because of his Christian faith. The creation of Narnia (The

Even when the body goes to sleep, the mind stays up all night, telling itself stories." There is a
feeling of greatness and satisfaction in reading and thinking about different situations, of looking at
things form the point of view of another. It is here, in the art of story and of writing fantastical
literature, in which I have found both my passion and, as I believe at this time in my life, calling.
There is more to telling a story than simply pulling story elements from thin air. In a miniscule
nutshell, it takes, to various degrees, planning, delving into psychology, and research. A good story
takes imagination, work, prayer, and, of course, a good deal of coffee. It has been twelve years since
I first discovered the joy of writing, and since then, the desire and joy of this action of creation has
only grown, much like a seed of a great oak tree. To me, there are few things that match the euphoria
of writing and completing a story, or even just a chapter in a manuscript. I have a passion for both
writing and reading: indulgences (in the right moderation) which tend to go hand–in–hand. After all,

Narnia Biblical Allusions Essay
C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia is a series of books that contain a countless amount of biblical
allusions. In each of the seven total books of the series, there are references to both characters and
major themes in the Bible. For example, in the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, there are many
allusions to the Bible such as when Edmund betrays not only his brother, Peter, and two sisters,
Susan and Lucy, but also Aslan in order to stay with the Wicked Witch in her palace. This is similar
to the story of Judas and the way that he leaves the disciples and betrays Jesus. Furthermore, in the
same book, Aslan is killed by the Wicked Witch for the sake of Narnia similar to how Jesus is
crucified for the sins of his people. Additionally, both ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This shows parallels to how Jesus and the Holy Spirit bring new life to those who believe in Him
and the promise that Christ will come back one day to reclaim His people. Another book in the
series that includes many references to the Bible is The Last Battle. This is the last book in the series
and shows many similarities to the book of Revelation in the Bible and to the end of time. Not only
does Aslan have a false Aslan who is trying to deceive and overtake Narnia similar to Jesus having
an Anti–Christ, Satan, who tries to tempt and deceive God's people, but this last book also shows
many parallels to the Judgement and last days on earth. Both the Anti–Christ and the Anti–Aslan
speak lies about the true Jesus and Aslan and it is ultimately up to the Narnians and the people on
Earth to accept or decline the real Jesus and the real Aslan. Lastly, both the Bible and The Last
Battle show the struggles between good and evil in this book and offer hope in the return of the real
Aslan and the real Christ. Even The Magician's Nephew, the first book in the series, shows allusions
to the book of Genesis in the Bible and the world's

Christianity and The Chronicles of Narnia
C. S. Lewis, a well–known author and apologist, is best known by people of all
ages for his seven volume series entitled The Chronicles of Narnia. As Lewis
wrote about the land of Narnia, an imaginary world visited by children of this
world, he had two obvious purposes: to entertain the readers and to suggest
analogies of the Christian faith. Although some feel that his stories are
violent, Lewis is successful at using fiction to open peoples' hearts to
accepting Christ as their Savior because he first entertains the audience with a
wonderful story.

But how should Lewis go about getting past those who are
not open to the idea of Christianity? He believed that the best way to do this
was to present it in a fictional world, a world in which it would be easier to
accept. The audience grows to love Aslan and everything that he symbolizes; they
begin to wish for someone like Aslan in this world. After finding this love for
Aslan, they will ideally transfer that love to Christ when presented with the
Gospel later in life. It is important to remember that The Chronicles of Narnia
are successful because many readers do not realize the resemblance of Aslan to

Jesus Christ. Even though Christian themes are present, the Chronicles are not
dependent on them (Schakel 132). Peter J. Schakel, a professor of English at
Hope College in Holland, Michigan, states that a non–Christian reader can
approach the book as a fictional story and "be moved by the exciting adventures
and the archetypal meanings, and not find the Christian elements obtrusive or
offensive" (132). For this reason, "the Narnian stories have been so successful
in getting into the bloodstream of the secular world" (Hooper 99).
Hooper discusses how Lewis will be successful in sharing the gospel if he can
get past the "partition of

Archetypes In Chronicles Of Narnia
In the fantasy series The Chronicles of Narnia written by C.S. Lewis, a critically acclaimed author
and beloved by fans, there are many common archetypes. An archetype is a role played by a
character in movies, plays, books, etcetera like heroes and villains. The Magician's Nephew takes
place in the summer of 1900 London. It all starts when Digory Kirke and Polly Plummer meet.
Together they have to deal with a selfish, greedy Uncle, a witch that tried to kill Digory's aunt, and
much more. Along the way they meet a lion who created a universe by his sing, this happened
thanks to a magic ring. One of the most important character Queen Jadis plays the part of the evil
villain, while Digory defeats her by being an utmost hero. Every story needs

The Chronicles of Narnia and The Bible
"A myth is a way of making sense in a senseless world. Myths are narrative patterns that give
significance to our existence." ― Rollo May
Fiction has always been used as a way to relay different types of messages throughout time. In many
cases authors use fiction to make political commentary, use stories to bring out the major flaws that
society has, as well as a way to spread different types of beliefs or ideals. C.S. Lewis's used his
work, "The Chronicles of Narnia", to reiterate the messages of the Bible to those who might have
gotten lost during their lifetime. Though his whole series was full of connections the book that have
the most prevalent connections are The Magician's Nephew and The Lion, the Witch and the
Wardrobe. In both ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Lewis's version went like this,
"Then two wonders happened at the same moment.... The second wonder was that the blackness
overhead, all at once, was blazing with stars. They didn't come out gently one by one, as they do on
a summer evening. One moment there had been nothing but darkness; next moment a thousand,
thousand points of light leaped out – single stars, constellations, and planets, brighter and bigger
than any in our world. There were no clouds. The new stars and the new voices began at exactly the
same time. If you had seen and heard it, as Digory did, you would have felt quite certain that it was
the stars themselves which were singing, and that it was the First Voice, the deep one, which had
made them appear and made them sing" (C.S. Lewis 61).
This voice was Aslan, and his singing was what brought Narnia into creation. Now this version is
very similar to the creation story in Genesis. In Genesis, God speaks and the world is brought into
being. In the bible it is written, "Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. God saw
that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light day, and
the darkness He called night and there was evening and there was morning, one day..." (Genesis). In
both, the creator was able to bring light and life from nothing. Thus these quotes are the beginning
of the parallel between Aslan and Jesus. Both were creators and omnipresent beings, they are both
larger than life.

Beauty In The Chronicles Of Narnia
C.S. Lewis had an instinctive pleasure for a little bit of this and a little bit of that in what he wrote.
Lewis' love for "sweet disorder" is inspired by British poet Robert Herrick. This love allowed Lewis
to unify excerpts and themes from religious works, mythology from various cultures, and literature
of famous writers. Lewis had the ability to commerce a theme into an extensive, greater idea to
construct it in what he wrote. Throughout The Chronicles of Narnia, he expresses the beauty he sees
in disorder. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, The Magicians Nephew, and The Voyage of the
Dawn Treader are three of the main books that he shows his admiration. If Lewis had not used the
literary elements of animals and planets in The Chronicles of Narnia series, then these books would
lack the true art and connotation of what Lewis wants to portray throughout these books. In The
Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe, animals become powerful literary choices. A lion exists as an
authoritative creature who leads amongst most. "Come, Son of Adam, and I will you show you a
far–off sight of the castle where you are to be King" (LWW 129). Talking lions stand among the
most respected creatures in all Narnia. Although the children had just met Aslan, they knew that they
should follow his leadership and obey under his commands. This creature embodies as the "king of
the beast". The lion (Aslan) is depicted in the book to represent Jesus Christ, known as the lord of
Narnia. Another animal

C. S. Lewis's Chronicles Of Narnia
The Twentieth century was fraught with many tragic moments. The two main tragedies of this
century were the two world wars. Many lives were lost due to these wars and many nations grieved
these losses, especially Britain. The world, after the two wars, turned to despair and all faith and
trust in God in a movement of modernism. Through this movement of modernism people rejected

Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia series. The first story to be published was The Lion, the Witch, and the
Wardrobe. The pevensie children are evacuated into the country during the midst of world war two.
While under the care of professor Kirke they come to find a wardrobe where it leads to the fictitious
land of Narnia. Narnia seems beautiful, but has been under the control of the white witch for at least
a hundred years and the children are called to defeat her with the help of the Christ–like figure,
Aslan. When Aslan sacrifices himself the children must somehow defeat the witch, but due to a
deeper magic that has been around before the dawn of time,in which an innocent person will one
day be resurrected. When Aslan resurrects he helps defeat the witch and peace is restored. This story
helps give hope that good will always conquer evil, no matter how grim it seems as Jesus did when
He sacrificed himself on the cross for us and resurrected three days later.
While not only finding God in the midst of suffering, there is also the fact that we need to live in
virtue. T.S. Elliott explains this in his poem, The Waste Land, in which he describes a society that
has become violent and immoral, much like the society described in Lord of the Flies where
children are left on an island and must survive. Eliot was describing a society after the first world
war and would only continue to get worse after the second world war. In the end of the poem, Eliot
prescribes a solution to keep society from furthering into this waste land through giving, self
control, and

The Chronicles Of Narnia By C. S. Lewis
The Chronicles of Narnia is a series of seven high fantasy novels by C.S. Lewis and illustrated by
Pauline Baynes, and originally published in London between 1950 and 1956. First we have The
Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (1950), Prince Caspian: The Return to Narnia (1951), The
Voyage of the Dawn Treader (1952), The Silver Chair (1953), The Horse and His Boy (1954) The
Magician's Nephew (1955), and lastly The Last Battle (1956). The Chronicles of Narnia are the most
popular works of writer C.S. Lewis. They are recognized as the children's fantasy novels, they are
really popular with students and even adults. In The Chronicles of Narnia, Lewis focuses on the
Biblical Character of Jesus Christ as the character of Aslan the lion. It retells certain some events in
Jesus life to children's in this new context that makes it easier for them to understand. The
Chronicles of Narnia were first written by C.S. Lewis with children in mind. The easy dialogue and
a sense of reality in the fantasy setting allows all ages to enjoy and fall in love with these books. The
reader becomes one with the pages, not wanting to put the book down for fear of the wonderful land
of Narnia escaping their minds.

Similarities Between The Chronicles Of Narnia
In the film , The Chronicles of Narnia, depicts a parallel story of Christ's crucifixion and
resurrection. The film displays characters who portrays similar characteristics of those in the Bible.
For instance ,"The Witch" has an analogous distinction to herself that corresponds to the Devil. The
"Lion" who is forgiving and sacrifices his life to save Edmund represents a similar characteristic to
Jesus dying for our sins. Aslan, the lion, act similar to Christ which distinguishes him as a Christ–
like figure. On the other hand, "The Wardrobe" portrays a sacredness underworld that is similar to
the sacred reality interpreted from the Bible. The Chronicle of Narnia illustrates the Bible story of
how the world was created through Christ and the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
As Aslan is risen from the dead it shows that if you have not committed any wrongs , you will be
saved , while the ones who have committed wrongs ( like the White Witch) will torture in their
sufferings. The Chronicle of Narnia also portrays sociological ideology. Like we explored in class,
sociological is the means to which we are given social values from a given group/person, that
influences how we view the world.
Lucy first introduced by Mr.Tumnus is influenced by his perception on Narnia and the evil White
Witch. Edmund, however, is encountered by the White Witch who deceives him to believe she is the
good one. The Witch lures him into her powers as she exploits his weakness. Furthermore, the film
presents the life stages in which Peter becomes the Knight of Narnia and Edmund's rite of passage
after committing evil acts with the White Witch. Therefore, both of their encounters influenced their
views of good and

Noble Act
Andrew Anderson's film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, The Wardrobe starts off
with four siblings who are escaping from the air strikes of World War II. The children escape to an
old man's mansion where they find a wardrobe that has a magical doorway to a mystical land called
Narnia. While they are walking in Narnia their brother wonders off and finds the evil White Witch
who lures him in through gluttony away from the siblings. The others find out more about the
mysterious land through other talking animals and eventually make their way into a camp. The camp
they find has the protector of the land as their leader Aslan; Aslan is the savior of Narnia from the
evil White Witch. Toward the end of the film, a battle occurs between Aslan's followers and the
White Witch's army; needless to say, Aslan's side won and defeated the evil White Witch. After the
battle, the siblings were crowned Kings and Queens of Narnia in place of Aslan, so Aslan himself
can help other worlds. The end of the movie occurs, when the children are adults now, and they
stumble across the other side of the wardrobe where they go back to the age they were before
discovering Narnia. The film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe by
Andrew Adamson demonstrate the humankind's redemption through character and plot. Anyone
who has seen The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe

Examples Of Allegory In The Chronicles Of Narnia
The movie The Chronicles of Narnia displays many allegories relating to jesus and
Christian/Catholic religion that are portrayed throughout the storyline and characters. C.S. Lewis the
creator of The Chronicles of Narnia is known for his allegories relating to religion amongst other
things. Throughout the movie C.S. Lewis had placed many allegories within the storyline that can be
depicted through Aslan, the White Witch, and the events that had occured in the movie. The movie
starts out in the timeline of WW1 which correlates to the chaos that had been going on throughout
the world as well as relating back to Jesus's timeline when things were in disarray. The youngest
child, Lucy is the first to discover a wardrobe. The wardrobe acts as a portal or gateway to the
spiritual world which could mean heaven, purgatory, and even hell in some cases. Due to time being
nonexistent in the wardrobe, whenever they return things are just as they left them before and time
has not passed in the real world. This connects to the Christian religion where there is no time in
heaven or the spiritual world and things are everlasting. This means that Narnia is the spiritual world
during the great war which is Armageddon because of the fight between Azlan and the White ...

The lamp post is utilized as a beacon, it acts as a safety line for the children. It also is not a

been there before to Susan and Peter. Along with first seeing the lamppost, everything is covered in
snow. This is a beautiful sight at first but, things are far worse than they appear to be. Just as the

Narnia Wardrobe Symbolism
Narnia was not just a place where a little girl stumbles into a curious creature named Tumnus. This
was a land C.S Lewis created to show the world Heaven and God; the worlds creator. Lewis wished
to tell society the Christian story, in which he believed, in hopes to maybe change the hearts of those
who have a blind eye towards this religion. In Narnia there is a ruler named Aslan who is this lands
God, portrayed as a lion. In the Bible it talks of God as a lion such as it does in the book of Psalms
58:6. "O God, Shatter their teeth in their mouth; break out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord"
(The Holy Bible 523). Within the Chronicles of Narnia series, C.S Lewis uses powerful symbols to
support his theme of salvation and redemption through ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
C.S Lewis was not always a Christian. In fact Lewis was an atheist. An atheist is a person who does
not believe in any greater/higher being. After being saved, he wanted the world to see God in a way
they could comprehend. Not all people can easily accept the fact that there is a greater being that
made man from the earth and woman from the rib of man. Not many people can accept that it was
God who created everything around them. Most of all people have a hard time with believing in
something that they cannot touch, see, hear, or feel. However, most people will succumb to a good
fairy tale, and believe in what they know is fiction. Therefore showing the world what Christ has
ultimately done for us through a lion, an evil witch and four children. Nate Shurden also wrote "A
Christian view of truth culminates in the person of Jesus Christ who brings actuality and mythology
together who bridges the gap between the heavenly and earthly realms and who marries the world
with flesh" (Shurden 2). The significance of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is the Christian
story built underneath the fictional plot. C.S Lewis did not wish for the Chronicles to be another
fantasy land of different plots and timelines, but volumes of a story of Christ where one can wish to
be a part

The Manipulation Of Narnia
What would you do if a beautiful queen tried to deceive you with beauty and magic? In the book the
lion, the witch, and the wardrobe the white witch deceived and used people for her scheme. The
queen ruled Narnia with manipulation, merciless, and hatred. The queen used innocent people for
her schemes. The white witch ruled Narnia with manipulation. The evil witch made innocent
animals spy or she would turn them to stone. The animals spied for children form earth. If they find
a human the immediately would report the child to the wicked queen who would kill them. The
queen treated Edmund when they first met very rude but when she discovered he had siblings she

The Chronicles of Narnia Book Report
Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie are all siblings sent to live in the care of the wise
Professor Kirke amid World War II. The children investigate the house on a stormy day and Lucy,
the most youthful, finds a colossal closet. Lucy ventures inside and winds up in a weird, blanketed
wood. Lucy experiences the Faun Tumnus, who is astonished to meet a human young lady. Tumnus
tells Lucy that she has entered Narnia, an alternate world. Tumnus welcomes Lucy to tea, and she
acknowledges. Lucy and Tumnus have a superb tea, however the faun begins sobbing
uncontrollably and admits that he is a hireling of the detestable White Witch. The Witch has
captivated Narnia so it is dependably winter and never Christmas. Tumnus clarifies that he has been
enrolled to catch people. Lucy entreats Tumnus to discharge her, and he concurs.
Lucy exits Narnia and enthusiastically enlightens her kin concerning her experience in the closet.
They don 't trust her, be that as it may. Lucy 's kin demand that Lucy was away for quite a long time
and not for a considerable length of time as she claims. At the point when the Pevensie youngsters
look in the back of the closet they see that it is a customary household item. Edmund prods Lucy
barbarously about her nonexistent nation until one day when he sees her vanishing into the closet.
Edmund takes after Lucy and ends up in Narnia too. He doesn 't see Lucy, and rather

Jesus In The Chronicles Of Narnia
Aslan, in the Chronicles of Narnia, represents Jesus for many reasons. One main reason is that Aslan
gives his life to save Edmund in the same way that Jesus sacrificed his own life to save us. Edmund
was known as a traitor and the only way to remove that label was to get blood. Similarly, the only
way to pay the price of sin is for a sinless person to die. Aslan's death itself parallels Jesus'. When
Aslan gives himself up for Edmund, the White Witch has him tied up and bound to the table, which
is meant for a traitor. All the creatures on her side mock and beat Aslan. The White Witch calls him
"Aslan the Great". In the same way, Jesus gives up his life for us. He is nailed to a cross, which is
meant for a criminal, mocked and beaten. A sign ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
There are also two girls and two boys, likewise, Noah took two of each animal on the ark. When
Lucy first goes to Narnia she meets Mr. Tumnus who takes her back to his house for tea. He then
begins to play an instrument and while he plays Lucy starts to see creatures dancing in the fire.
When she falls asleep a lion's face jumps out of the fire and fire goes out. This reminds me of when
Jesus rebukes demons and sends them out of people. The White Witch likes to call herself the Queen
of Narnia and think she is more powerful than Aslan but she is not. Likewise, Satan likes to believe
that he is more powerful than Jesus, but he too is not. After Peter, Susan, Lucy, and the Beavers
realize that Edmund is gone and that he most likely is going to the White Witch they frantically pack
up and leave the Beaver's dam. This is similar to when the Israelites flee Egypt in the exodus. Like
the Israelites had to cross the Red Sea, the Pevensies and the Beavers cross the Great River while it
is un–thawing. The Witch's wolves are chasing them and drown like the Egyptian soldiers. Mr.
Beaver tells Peter, Susan, and Lucy that only Aslan can save Edmund much like only Jesus can save
us. When Aslan goes to the Witch's castle after he comes back to life, he breathes on the statues to
make them come back to life. This can be taken two different ways. The first is how Jesus brought
people back to life. The second is a metaphor. Our hearts are cold and hard before we know Jesus,
like how Narnia is frozen and some of the creatures are stone, but then Jesus comes into our lives
and makes us warm and alive. Like how when Aslan came to Narnia it became spring. Lastly, the
war between Aslan and the White Witch is like the spiritual warfare going on between God and
Satan. She wants the Pevensies and Narnians killed but Aslan is fighting for

Gender Inequality In Narnia
Different works may have different binary oppositions than Cixous already mentioned in her essay,
but the principle is that in patriarchal binary thought the male is always the winner (147). The writer
finds another opposition but has not mentioned by Cixous, it is "forgiveness and banishment". In the
novels, Lewis implies inequality of gender which always defends the male characters, just like
Cixous states that male always the victor (147). Lewis more to give special treatment to male and
more to let female characters fall. This inequality can be seen in the characters of Susan and
Edmund Pevensie.
Both Susan and Edmund did some mistakes in Narnia, but it is only Edmund who receives
forgiveness from Aslan. Edmund's big mistake is he betrays his siblings so he could be a ... Show
As a child, he believes of the White Witch's promise. Even they knew that White Witch is an evil,
but he still came to visit her even without his siblings and betrayed them.
After all four children arrive in Narnia and being warned by the beavers, Edmund still wants to
follow the instruction of The White Witch and ready to betray his siblings, he does it completely.
When The White Witch asks about his siblings, he tells her every single detail about their location
and what they are going to do to help Narnians. Edmund has come to the bottom of his descent.
After Edmund having been rescued by the Narnians, he has a long talk with Aslan. The detail of this
conversation is left to the reader's imagination, but it was a conversation which Edmund never
forgot (Lion 59). He continues his transformation of being good with his sincere apologies to each
one of his brother and sisters. Edmund bad attitude changes through the story. He has a hard
adventure that teaches him to be better. And then he becomes King Edmund the Just. Lewis gives
Edmund another chance to change his personality, but he did not do that to

Analysis Of The Book 'The Chronicles Of Narnia'
Clive Staples Lewis, a British novelist, poet, academic, and Christian apologist managed to
transcend cultural boundaries with his fictional literary book series, The Chronicles of Narnia. The
book series is regarded as a classic of children's literature and is Lewis's best–known work, having
sold over 100 million copies in 47 languages. The books were written around 1950 and have been
adapted through several mediums, including film. In particular, the film creation of the first of the
seven books, The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, made in 2005, presents a problematic
dynamic of gender, genre, and religion. The Chronicles of Narnia book series is meant to portray the
Christian morality throughout the book series. Therefore, whatever is presented about gender holds
merit regarding how the Christian worldview sees gender. Within The Lion, The Witch, and The
Wardrobe, a particular scene with a man named Father Christmas provides a clear view as to how
gender is seen in the series. In this scene, Father Christmas meets the four main characters of the
film, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy who are all siblings. Before the children engage in the
beginning of a nasty war, Father Christmas provides exclusively gender–specific gifts to the
children. The oldest boy, Peter, receives a sword while his slightly younger sister Susan, receives a
horn to simply, "call for help," and a bow and arrow that is not meant to be used in battle. The
second boy Edmund also receives a

Symbolism In The Chronicles Of Narnia
In the series, The Chronicles of Narnia, written by a Christian author named C.S. Lewis, wrote the
series as fun entertainment for young folks. C.S. Lewis actually grew up as an atheist, but later
became the most popular convert to Christianity in the twentieth century. He was converted to
Christianity at the age of thirty–three and from there on out he devoted his life to promote and write
about Christianity (Byfield). In The Chronicles of Narnia, there are several symbols and references
to the Bible. It is written from a Christian perspective, and made Christianity known to all who was
reading it. The series was also popular because even if you believe in a different religion, it was
open to interpretation and is a series that is just as appealing to other groups of different faith as
well. Narnia itself has symbolism written all over it, but it is up to the reader to find it and really
understand the meaning of everything that happens and how it relates to the Christian faith
(McGrath). C.S. Lewis in a way, re–told the life of Jesus Christ, and all the tragic events that
happened to him in a fun, creative way that appeal to the younger audience and maybe gave them a
better picture of what Jesus went through. Lewis wrote books that he wish he would have read as a

the theme of overcoming temptation, such as the scene of Aslan's banquet table. Aslan is just an

Jadis In Narnia
In her own dominion, Charn, Jadis is extremely powerful; but she finds her magic largely useless in

magic to cast the land into perpetual winter. Her most feared weapon is her wand, whose magic is
capable of turning people into stone. The petrified remains of her enemies decorate the halls of her
castle. Her other powers, which she immediately loses after entering another world, include the
ability to disintegrate objects and individuals, read minds, control the minds of animals (She does
possibly retain or regain this power in Narnia) and the terrifying power of the Deplorable Word – the
latter of which wipes out every living thing on a planet except ... Show more content on

She is also physically powerful and amazonian, capable of breaking iron with her bare hands and
lifting human beings off their feet. She retains her superhuman strength in other worlds (except in
the Wood between the Worlds), but must re–learn magic. She is seven feet tall, as were all members
of the Royal Family of Charn. A natural–born sorceress and a cunning strategist, Jadis is arrogant
and cruel, considering herself above all rules and viewing others as tools to be used or obstacles to
be demolished. After she eats the Fruit of Everlasting Life, selfishly and against the written
admonition on the gate, she discovers that her sense of inner power and life is amplified. However
her skin becomes as white as paper, symbolizing a kind of living death and the despair–to–come that
is predicted in the text she deems she is above. Her callousness and sense of entitlement is most
clearly demonstrated when she uses the Deplorable Word in Charn to vanquish her sister, even
though the Word would eradicate all life in that world but her own. She prefers to destroy that entire
world than submit to her sister's authority, and shows afterward a remorseless pride in her actions.
Though her magic disappears when she leaves Charn, she manages to build it up again in Narnia's
world, exercising both her previous experience and her privilege to witness

The Seven Books in The Chronicles of Narnia
The seven books in The Chronicles of Narnia series contain tales of a fantasy world with talking
mythical animals. Does this fantasy series for children hold a deeper meaning? The C.S. Lewis'
series 'The Chronicles of Narnia' may not be a direct parallel to Christian symbolism, but the stories
and characters of Narnia do contain parallel biblical truths. Lewis' The Magicians Nephew and The
Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe both hold Christian allegory, revealing a variety of religious
prophecies such as Christ creating earth, Jesus dies for humanity's sins, and temptation in the world.
In both novels, Aslan represents the figure of Christ. The Magicians Nephew has Christian parallels,
reflecting particular aspects of The Book of Genesis, such as the creation of earth and Aslan creating
Narnia. In The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Aslan is a Christ–like figure who suffers a death
of expiation for Edmund's sin, and resurrects much like the way of Christ's crucifixion and
resurrection. Not only does the infrastructure of these two novels shed light on stories from the
bible, using characters to do so, the characters themselves also have similar qualities to the people in
the bible they represent. Similar to the Trinity of the Holy Church, during the series of novels, Lewis
writes about the "Emperor Beyond the Sea", Aslan, and Aslan's breath. Aslan's father is known as
the Emperor Beyond the Sea, just as God is Jesus' father, as well as Aslan's 'long warm breath' gives

Narnia Christian Analysis
Abstract
The objective of this work is to analyze the work of the infantile–juvenile literature of the Irish
writer C. S. Lewis, The Chronicles of Narnia, an important fictional literary narrative, composed by
seven chronicles. It will take into account the apparent biblical character revealed through the
language figures and the mythical characters employed by the author. In order to explain how
Christianity is perceived and recognized in Lewis's work, two chronicles were chosen for analysis:
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and Prince Caspian.
The Chronicles and The Christianity One of the earliest resemblance to Christianity that I could
perceive in the work of the Chronicles of Narnia consists of the literary genre, which is ... Show
The professor of Sociology, Anthropology Milton Greco saw that author Lewis did not use only the
same figures of language found in the Bible – as parables, allegories, comparisons, metaphors – and
some similar components (animals, nature, children, songs, prophecies, mythical beings); but
mainly, "the sense of Moral (right and wrong). Along with issues of faith (beliefs in deities) and
behavioral (solidarity, altruism, kindness, generosity, pride, stubbornness, and unbelief)" (Greco,
p.163) Another biblical parallel is found in the author's choice of the main character, the lion Aslan.
Because in Revelation in the Bible, the lion is clearly used as a specific symbol of Christ. The
apostle John records: "Then one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep! Behold, the Lion of the
tribe of Judah, the root of David, has triumphed to open the scroll and its seven

What Role Does Christianity Play In The Chronicles Of Narnia
Many would say that the chronicles of Narnia series, the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in
particular were perhaps one of the best childhood books to be around, but not many know that the

This essay will focus on the teachings of Christianity and how it plays a significant role in the movie
the chronicles of Narnia. The following factors will be used to discuss Christianity and how it
interlinks with The Chronicles of Narnia, namely: Religion, the definition of Christianity, Who Jesus
and Judas are, a summary of the chronicles of Narnia, how Christianity plays a key role in the
chronicles of Narnia, and how Jesus and Judas are portrayed throughout the film. References such as

how does one define religion? a complicated question asked by many, although often hard to
answer, according to the Oxford Dictionary " Religion is a belief in the existence of god or gods
who has/have created the universe and given man a spiritual nature which continues to exist after the
death of the body a particular system of faith and worship based on such belief controlling influence
on one's life something one is devoted or committed to" Another definition of religion would be
"beliefs and practices related to the sacred, which unifies adherents (followers/worshippers)"
(Schmidt,1931). Although there had been many definitions as to what religion could be, it had all
seemed to say the same thing, that religion is belief in and worship of an unseen higher power, a
controlling Being. Although religion itself can be quite fascinating, Christianity can perhaps be the
most intriguing religions of the thousands
