Who was C.S. Lewis? What was he known for? Why was C.S. Lewis known as “Jack"?What did Lewis think about the Bible? Was he a fundamentalist? These questions and so many more have been, and are currently being asked today. Humans as a species tend to be drawn to the professional legacy of a man or women of great stature and or power.

By the middle of the century, one-fifth of Pike County’s 16,000 populaces were African Americans-all of them but ten were slaves. In 1813, General Zebulon Montgomery Pike, who John Lewis said never set foot in Pike County, got killed in a battle in Canada. After his death, ten counties decided to honor his name by establishing counties- including Alabama which created Pike County in 1821. The experiences of John Lewis helped to enhance my understanding of pre-Civil Rights African American life in the south by showing me that Pike County had their similar shares of cultural brutality; moreover, just as other counties in the deep south had. Furthermore, I learned that after the Civil War African Americans’ life in the South improved gradually.

John S.

All throughout Lewis novels there is evidence that clearly connects the themes and symbolism from other aspects of traditional Christian literature both during and before he began writing. One of the most distinct examples of this occurring within Lewis’ works is the influence that Dante had on the concepts that he reflects on while conveying thoughts to his readers. This is specifically more notable a connection between Dante and Lewis when you examine the parallels that take place within Lewis’ Out of the Silent Planet and Dante’s Inferno. The literary tradition left behind by Dante is both one able to influence the thoughts of others and to teach the value of Christianity through within a fictional environment. This is similar to Lewis’ Space Trilogy in more ways than one, some of which include Ransom journey in place of the pilgrim as he travels through strange, new, territory in order to reach his goal, and the use of Malacandra to represent the levels of Hell. Each book in the Space Trilogy continues to expand on the possible influence that Dante may have had on Lewis while he wrote these books and aims to show Christians the truth behind the Dante’s thoughts through the use of science fiction. Many elements found within Dante’s Inferno are reintroduced through new ideas by Lewis within Out of the Silent Planet in order to convey Christian thoughts and

Friendship describes the mutual pledge to help reveal the innermost workings of a person, bringing out the hidden attributes and validity of one’s characteristics. Subsequently, the bonds and struggles of friendship are a central cause for unveiling identity as the relationship one makes contributes to long-lasting change.

Few authors in history have had an impact that has lasted beyond their own time. I was born on the 29th of November in 1898 and died on the 22nd of November 1963 not quite living until my sixty-fifth birthday (“About C.S. Lewis” 1), and during my life, I earned somehow the right to be remembered like few authors have gotten he chance to do. Although, I do not know how I came to earn that. I grew up in Belfast, Ireland surrounded by the plains to Flora and August Hamilton (About 1). My childhood was often filled with fantasy as my brothers and I wished for greater adventures. I found this adventure in some ways when World War I was on the rise and I participated in the British army (About 2). Later in life, I attended Oxford and had

C.S. Lewis was praised for his work as an author. Making incredible headlines and quotes for his amazing writing. He is known today for his work in creating an incredible series, the Chronicles of Narnia. In this paragraph contains facts and unbelieving shockers of C.S. Lewis’s life. November 29th, 1898, Belfast, Northern Ireland Clive Staple Lewis was born into the world. When researching I found this fact about Lewis quote “C.S. Lewis is made a commander of the British Empire (CBE) by Prime minister Winston Churchill, but doesn't accept the honor” end quote. C.S. Lewis lived his life through much grief and sorrow. With Lewis’s mom, Florence Augusta (‘flora’) Hamilton Lewis, dying on August 23, 1908, and on September 20, 1929, Lewis’s dad

Lewis sends a clear message that he believes in that there is no absolute truth in his book. He doesnt have any relativism in it. He says that there is heaven and there is hell. There is good and there is evil. Lewis gives everyone who’s in this book powers, which makes it fall in to evil. Everyone who gets on the bus, which is going to heaven, must make a conscious decision, they aren’t fit to go to heaven yet. And the reason why they see and have all these ghost is because of how imperfectly they are to enter heaven. “One could attend to them or ignore them at will as you do with the dirt on a window pane. I noticed that the grass did not bend under their feet: even the dew drops were not disturbed” (Lewis Chapter 3). They are still same

Ray LaMontagne has said that:"You can make bad choices and find yourself in a downward spiral or you can find something that gets you out of it." C.S.Lewis fits both of the situations mentioned above. He used to fall downward like a fool because the decision he make about faith but later he made the intelligent choice and turned the darkness of his life inside out and embraced the light of the world. Unlike the fools, people full of intelligence in both physical and spiritual ways will turn the darkness back and embrace the light of the world honorably. C.S. Lewis, a fabulous Christian author, apologist and evangelist, was admirable not only because of his knowledge but also because of his willingness to share Christianity and his undoubted impact on Christian faith.

There will always be philosophical interpretations that will create universal truths for many generations to come.

C.S. Lewis is one of the greatest authors in history. His books are still widely available and sold to many interested readers. In Lewis’ childhood, he experienced a tragedy that affected his belief in god; in his middle life, he mainly focused on college and his studies, but his father’s death played a role in Lewis later becoming a Christian. In Lewis’ later life, he married one of his own fans. Clive’s passion for writing began when he was a small child, and it continued to grow as he furthered his education to become a college professor at Oxford University. Lewis is still remembered today for his great works, such as The Screwtape Letters and The Chronicles of Narnia, which is a popular series among children.
