The Manipulation Of Narnia

[2] When the White Witch ruled Narnia, she also set up a secret police force too. Because White Witch and Adolf Hitler are both unpleasantly horrible, they will both capture and kill to get what they want. Hitler wanted to rule the world and kill all the Jews, and the White Witch wanted to kill the sons and daughters of Narnia, which did not work out. [3] Sadly, they killed many people 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

Just as they were making their way toward the shack out comes the witch. They carefully make their way up to her and not taking their eyes off of her. Not only was she a witch but a beautiful one, like no one they had ever seen. She

The young girls accused a slave of the Parris’s by the name of Tituba, a homeless beggar Sarah Good, and an older, poor woman by the name of Sara Osborn. They were brought before Jonathan Corwin and John Hathorne for questioning and to see if there were other witches in the community. In the questioning the two Sarahs denied guilt but Tituba confessed hoping to save herself as acting as an informer.

Manipulative. Fearsome. Spiteful. These are three characteristics one associates with the White Witch, who is a character from C.S. Lewis’ The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. She is said to be part giantess while also being a descendant from Adam’s first wife Lilith. She is an evil witch who has named herself the Queen of Narnia although she is not the true queen at all as she is not even from Narnia but another land. Because of this she is shown to have magic that other inhabitants do not have which she used to help name herself queen. Regrettably, while she is ruling as this false queen she is shown to exhibit lass than desirable character traits you would want out of a

Lewis Narnia? While Edmund was eating the Queen kept on asking him questions. At first Edmund tried to remember that it is rude to speak with one’s mouth full, but soon he forgot about this and thought only of trying to shovel down as much as Turkish Delight he could, and the more he eat the more he wanted to eat, and never asked himself why the Queen should be so inquisitive. She got him to tell her that he had one brother and two sisters, and one of his sisters had already been in Narnia and had met a faun, and that no one except himself and his brother and his sisters knew anything about Narnia. She seemed especially interested in the fast that there were the four of them, and kept on going back to it.

In the movie, when Edmund first entered into the house of the white witch, she asked him two questions. “Tell me, Edmund… are your sisters deaf?” and “And your brother. Is he…unintelligent?” After she got “No” for both the questions, she was quite furious and yelled “Then how DARE you come alone! … Edmund, I ask so little of you.” From this conversation, it is clear to see the cruelty of the White Witch and she is so looking forward to catch some Narnians. This is one of the similarities that the film shares with the novel.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C. S. Lewis is the first—although sequentially the second—of seven books Lewis wrote about the imaginary world of Narnia. It is set during World War II, at the time when London was being bombed by Nazi Germany, and was inspired by Lewis's life with refugee children who came from London to stay at his country home during the bombings. One of the children, fascinated by the black oak wardrobe standing in the Lewis's hall, wanted to know if there was a way out of the back of the wardrobe, and if so, what was on the other side. Lewis's response was The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the story of a world under siege by the powers of darkness, only it is not Hitler who leads the attack but the White Witch.

Amanda Payne Compare the White Witch to Cronus from Greek Mythology. Both had their kingdom taken away from them by tricking. Cronus zapped people and the Witch turned them to stone. They both had a way of getting rid of their adversaries that was successful until their enemy came along.

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 entering the world after creation had occurred not at the same

She immediately senses Edmund’s jealousy and utilizes it to entrap the other three children. She offers Edmund anything he wants, he asks for Turkish delights, which she in turn delivers. She then tells him that he could be king and his siblings will be his servants, which is extremely appealing to Edmund. Edmund agrees to deliver his siblings and thus betrays them for worldly desires. “Edmund’s greed gets the better of his judgment; Proverbs 23: 1-3 cautions, when you sit to dine with a ruler, note well what is before you, and put a knife to your throat if you are given to gluttony. Do not crave his delicacies, for that food is deceptive” (Ditchfield 51).

Edmund matures more than any other character over the course of the novel. When the audience is first introduced to Edmund he is spiteful and stubborn. One example is when Lucy tells her siblings about Narnia. While the eldest children moved on, Edmund kept teasing Lucy. The author says that Edmund “Could be quite spiteful and on this occasion he was”(Lewis 28).

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.
