Lewis seemed to make the entire meaning of the book correlate with Christianity as a whole. Every aspect within this novel has a connection with the bible in some way or another.

With parallels such as the characters, faith, and the story itself shows the strong ties this novel has with the Christian religion.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is a fiction in which one of the main characters, the sturdy lion Aslan, has the most power and authority. There are tons of images of Aslan from the book and the movie that relate to Jesus in Bible. The most outstanding images are the death of Aslan on top of the stone table which represents the crucifixion of Jesus, Aslan’s rebirth which is similar to the Resurrection of Jesus, and Aslan’s offering the stone statues life just as the figure of God made everything.

The play had a lot of differences. The kids was at the professor's house with no air raids. The characters was much different than any of the others. It was a quick and short story.

Fenrus Olf was the chief police that had taken Mr. Tumnus in. A life-size beaver started talking to the kids and told them to go to his beaver home. Once they got there Mrs. beaver was cooking them dinner. Peter and Mr. beaver went to fish. Once they got done fishing they ate and realized Edmund was missing, like all of the others. They went to find him but they was getting chased by the white witch. They went to the beaver hide out. They passed the animal party. Father Christmas did not give them anything it was Aslan who gave their weapons to them. Everything was the same up to this point until when Aslan came back to life. Hey flew instead of running to the witch’s Castle. Once he freed all of the stone creatures he took them to battle the white witch. Once they defeated the white witch all of them screamed and yelled because of their victory. After that the four kids became kings and queens of Cair

The Chronicles of Narnia are veritably the most popular writings of C.S. Lewis. They are known as children’s fantasy literature, and have found favor in older students and adults alike, even many Christian theologians enjoy these stories from Lewis; for there are many spiritual truths that one can gleam from them, if familiar with the Bible.

When C.S. Lewis wrote The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, he intended for Aslan to represent Jesus. Throughout the book, Aslan goes through many of the same things Jesus went through. For instance, Aslan represents Jesus by how he goes through the crucifixion as Jesus did. Also, Aslan was resurrected from the grave after his death just as Jesus was. Aslan’s personality, emotions, and traits all represent Jesus. Aslan brings the statues life when they were trapped in nothing, just as Jesus brings salvation to those who are trapped by the weight of sin. Aslan’s name brings joy and fear, and his presence is intimidating and happy at the same time, just as Jesus was with the people around him. Both in the book and the movie, Aslan also gave his life for Edmund, and went through a

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe has many themes; the biggest theme that I have seen in the book is allegory or religion. The book begins with all four kids being sent away. Lucy finds a room that has a big wardrobe in it. Lucy starts walking through the wardrobe and when she gets there Lucy meets a red goat like human with horns and a tail. At first I thought Mr. Tumnus represented the devil but later in the book a woman also known as white witch tempted Edmund with food and turned him into somebody that will turn their family in for royalty or more food. PG. 39 “Probably the Queen knew quite well what he was thinking;for she knew, though Edmund did not, that this was enchanted Turkish Delight and that anyone who had once tasted it would want more and more of it, and would even, if they were allowed, go on eating it till they killed themselves.” Another religious part of the book is that all the characters from

As we grow up, we hear fairy tales and we read them into our lives. Every word and every image is imprinted into our minds. The fairy tales we read are never abandoned. They grow with us and our dreams become molds of the many morals and happily ever afters fairy tales display. We tell children fairy tales when they go to sleep and they read them in school and we even have them watch Disney adaptions that reinforce them further. Generally, they were everywhere while we grew up and they continue to be present while children are growing up now. But what influence do these stories have? We casually expose our children to these tales, but in some cases they can have particularly, harmful personal effects on them, although there is nothing completely or visibly “bad” about them or about the characters in them. Before we divulge our youth to these stories, we should assess their substance and see what sort of effect they may be having on them. They have received so much scrutiny and have been studied by many. Recognizing fairy tales effects on the minds of children is vital in their development. This paper will focus on the underlying messages that the average person wouldn’t recognize in these everyday stories. There’s a modern distort with fairy tales because while they still are widely popular with the youth, they influence children’s self images, outlooks on reality and expectations for their futures, especially for young women.
