Download or read book The Lion the Witch and the Bible written by Robert Velarde and published by NavPress Publishing Group. This book was released on 2005 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the trend in the sales of movie tickets and books, I have noticed there is a popular misconception concerning works such as the Chronicles. Many have the idea that the books are only for children and that when one grows up, such "childrens books" are no longer of value. Those with this mindset believe that as people grow to adulthood, they should move on to more important matters than the interests of childhood. Among other things, this means leaving imaginative "childrens literature" behind. Lewis believed the contemporary distinctions between adult and children's books, particularly the association of fantasy with children, is artificial. To think it proper only for children to read these kinds of books is a recent and false distinction, according to Lewis. He pointed out that most of the great fairy tales were not addressed to children specifically but to readers of all ages. Walter Hooper observed that Lewis "wrote fairy tales simply because he liked them himself and because he found them the best art form for what he had to say." Consequently, while most children thoroughly enjoy the Chronicles of Narnia, there is much in them to be savored and pondered by adults.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only 2 in 10 Americans under 30 believe attending a church is important or worthwhile. Well over half of young adults raised in the Church have dropped out with many having a strong anti-Church stance, many even believing the Church does more harm than good.Fr. Josh Johnson was one of these people. In Broken and Blessed he tackles the harsh realities facing the Church in the 21st century.

Josh offers an inspiring witness of how he came to know God, rather than just knowing about him—and presents practical ways for us to truly know God as well.

Download or read book Planet Narnia written by Michael Ward and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-15 with total page 655 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over half a century, scholars have laboured to show that C. S. Lewis's famed but apparently disorganised Chronicles of Narnia have an underlying symbolic coherence, pointing to such possible unifying themes as the seven sacraments, the seven deadly sins, and the seven books of Spenser's Faerie Queene. None of these explanations has won general acceptance and the structure of Narnia's symbolism has remained a mystery. Michael Ward has finally solved the enigma. In Planet Narnia he demonstrates that medieval cosmology, a subject which fascinated Lewis throughout his life, provides the imaginative key to the seven novels. Drawing on the whole range of Lewis's writings (including previously unpublished drafts of the Chronicles), Ward reveals how the Narnia stories were designed to express the characteristics of the seven medieval planets - - Jupiter, Mars, Sol, Luna, Mercury, Venus, and Saturn - - planets which Lewis described as "spiritual symbols of permanent value" and "especially worthwhile in our own generation". Using these seven symbols, Lewis secretly constructed the Chronicles so that in each book the plot-line, the ornamental details, and, most important, the portrayal of the Christ-figure of Aslan, all serve to communicate the governing planetary personality. The cosmological theme of each Chronicle is what Lewis called 'the kappa element in romance', the atmospheric essence of a story, everywhere present but nowhere explicit. The reader inhabits this atmosphere and thus imaginatively gains connaître knowledge of the spiritual character which the tale was created to embody. Planet Narnia is a ground-breaking study that will provoke a major revaluation not only of the Chronicles, but of Lewis's whole literary and theological outlook. Ward uncovers a much subtler writer and thinker than has previously been recognized, whose central interests were hiddenness, immanence, and knowledge by acquaintance.

Download or read book Biblical Discourse in The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe written by Julia Jenner and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, PH Oberoesterreich, course: Anglophone Culture for the Classroom, language: English, abstract: This paper explores the biblical discourse in The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. Therefore, parts of the discourse of the novel are compared to verses of the bible. For the analysis of the biblical discourse, the theoretical concepts of “representation” and “discourse” are described and applied to the novel. The discussion of this paper further puts the biblical discourse of the novel in the context of the concepts of “representation” and “discourse”. It has been found that there is a second level of meaning to some of the novel's discourse, which encloses central biblical messages. Nevertheless, every reader of "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" may make sense of its discourse differently, as it is him or her who makes things mean.

Download or read book The Lion s World written by Rowan Williams and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2012 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams offers fascinating insight into The Chronicles of Narnia, the popular series of novels by one of the most influential Christian authors of the modern era, C. S. Lewis. Lewis once referred to certain kinds of book as a "mouthwash for the imagination." This is what he attempted to provide in the Narnia stories, argues Williams: an unfamiliar world in which we could rinse out what is stale in our thinking about Christianity--"which is almost everything," says Williams--and rediscover what it might mean to meet the holy. Indeed, Lewis's great achievement in the Narnia books is just that-he enables readers to encounter the Christian story "as if for the first time." How does Lewis makes fresh and strange the familiar themes of Christian doctrine? Williams points out that, for one, Narnia itself is a strange place: a parallel universe, if you like. There is no "church" in Narnia, no religion even. The interaction between Aslan as a "divine" figure and the inhabitants of this world is something that is worked out in the routines of life itself. Moreover, we are made to see humanity in a fresh perspective, the pride or arrogance of the human spirit is chastened by the revelation that, in Narnia, you may be on precisely the same spiritual level as a badger or a mouse. It is through these imaginative dislocations that Lewis is able to communicate--to a world that thinks it knows what faith is--the character, the feel, of a real experience of surrender in the face of absolute incarnate love. This lucid, learned, humane, and beautifully written book opens a new window onto Lewis's beloved stories, revealing the moral wisdom and passionate faith beneath their perennial appeal.
