The Witch demands Edmund’s life, saying he is a traitor. According to the Deep Magic of Narnia, a traitor’s life is forfeited to her. Aslan can’t go against the Deep Magic. Aslan volunteers to sacrifice his own life in place of Edmund’s life. The Stories of the Passion of Christ and the Resurrection of Christ are reflected in the character of Aslan. Both Christ and Aslan walk to their deaths filled with a deep sadness. Probably the most important difference between the two stories is that Christ died to redeem all of mankind, while Aslan died to save one life. However, the Christian message is clear: In God’s eyes, one human life is as significant as all human lives. While Christ was nailed to a cross, Aslan was tied to the Stone Table and killed with a knife. Aslan rises the very next morning, whereas Christ lay in the tomb for three days. Both Christ and Aslan had females witness the Crucifixion. Aslan jumps into action immediately after talking to Lucy and Susan and then enters into battle with the Witch. Aslan defeats the Witch. This battle could be a symbol of our own struggle to

Lewis, after Edmund Pevensie wanders into Narnia and meets the White Witch. Once she finds out that he’s one of the “Sons of Adam” mentioned in the prophecy that foretold the end of her reign, the White Witch puts on a false demeanor. She offers Edmund a hot beverage and a box of enchanted Turkish delight that makes the consumer crave it and consume it to his or her death. Edmund is the only one putting effort into this “communion,” as he is the only one eating while the White Witch is simply sitting on the sled and interrogating him. The White Witch doesn’t bond with Edmund, and Edmund fools himself into thinking that he’s become friendly with the Queen of Narnia. As such, the “communion” ultimately fails in regard to friendly bonding. However, there is an exchange of ideas: The White Witch feeds him lies about making him prince and giving him more Turkish delight, and in return, Edmund unknowingly gives her information on a traitor and promises to bring his siblings to

“Creatures, I give you yourselves,” said the strong, happy voice of Aslan. “I give to you forever this land of Narnia. I give you the woods, the fruits, the rivers. I give you the stars and I give you myself. The Dumb Beasts whom I have not chosen are yours also. Treat them gently and cherish them but do not go back to their ways lest you cease to be Talking Beasts. For out of them you were taken and into them you can return. Do not so.”- Aslan

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

Unfortunately due to Edmund’s treason the Witch confronts Aslan and claims her right to Edmund’s blood as described in the laws (Deep Magic) of Narnia. “As a traitor Edmund stands condemned” (Ditchfield 62). This is also the case in the Bible; “All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law” (Romans 2:12). Another Biblical text explains, “Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness” (Hebrews 9:22). The White Witch warns Aslan of the consequences of ignoring the laws of Narnia. “If this is not accomplished, Narnia will be destroyed with fire and water, which immediately reminds biblically literate readers of Noah’s flood and the prophesied final destruction of the Earth by fire” (Hinten 18). Edmunds sin can’t go unpunished and the penalty is

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is the first of several novels in the C.S. Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia. These books tell stories of another universe that is called Narnia. Here there are many unearthly things from talking animals and evil witches. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is the story of four young siblings who discover this new world by entering a wardrobe. Little did they know, they were destined to become the new royalty of Narnia but only after going through many battles. In The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, C.S. Lewis analyzes the character Lucy, the theme of good versus evil, and the parallels of Narnia to other literature and Lewis’s life.

An example is when in the three movies and the book series, Aslan is portrayed as a noble and powerful creation of Narnia. In the movies, Aslan is portrayed as king, protective, loving and even noble which is part of his character. In the book series, he is portrayed as a father figure to every character, talking to animals, playful and even having a sense of humor. For instance in the book, the Prince of Caspian, Aslan is shown as humorous when he attempts to make the Trufflehunter have belief in him through the picking of the dwarf with his mouth and giving a big shake. In the Lion, the witch and the Wardrobe, Aslan is portrayed as playful. This is seen immediately he comes back from the dead and begins playing with Lucy and Susan for them to try catching

In C.S. Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Lewis emphasizes the three points of philosophy, themes, and symbolism throughout his writing. Lewis was a strong Christian man, and wanted to make children see and understand all the stories of the Bible. Therefore, he put Christian elements through his books, but with fantasy characters as well. Especially in this story, Lewis conveys the differences between good and evil. Aslan is represented as Christ just as the White Witch represents the sense of evil. Lewis wrote several books in this Narnia series, but The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe became the most famous and recognized of his novels.
