The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S Lewis. Introduction
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S Lewis. Introduction Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie are four siblings sent to live in the country with the eccentric Professor Kirke during World War II. The children explore the house on a rainy day and Lucy, the youngest, finds an enormous wardrobe. Lucy steps inside and finds herself in a strange, snowy wood. Lucy encounters the Faun Tumnus, who is surprised to meet a human girl. Tumnus tells Lucy that she has entered Narnia, a different world. Tumnus invites Lucy to tea, and she accepts. Lucy and Tumnus have a wonderful tea, but the faun bursts into tears and confesses that he is a servant of the evil White Witch. The Witch has enchanted Narnia so that it is always winter and never Christmas. Tumnus explains that he has been enlisted to capture human beings. Lucy implores Tumnus to release her, and he agrees. Lucy exits Narnia and eagerly tells her siblings about her adventure in the wardrobe. They do not believe her, however. Lucy's siblings insist that Lucy was only gone for seconds and not for hours as she claims. When the Pevensie children look in the back of the wardrobe they see that it is an ordinary piece of furniture. Edmund teases Lucy mercilessly about her imaginary country until one day when he sees her vanishing into the wardrobe. Edmund follows Lucy and finds himself in Narnia as well. He does not see Lucy, and instead meets the White Witch that Tumnus told Lucy about. The Witch Witch introduces herself to Edmund as the Queen of Narnia.

Neeson: Narnia's Aslan the Lion Represents All Great Spiritual Leaders
Neeson: Narnia’s Aslan the lion represents all great spiritual leaders LONDON – Catholic actor Liam Neeson said he thinks the magical lion of C.S. Lewis’ “The Chronicles of Narnia” series not only represents Christ but also symbolizes other great spiritual leaders. Neeson is the voice of Aslan the lion in “The Voyage of the Dawn Treader,” a 20th- Century Fox film premiered for journalists in London Nov. 30. It will open in U.S. theaters Dec. 10. At a Dec. 2 news conference, Neeson explained what the character meant to him. “As we know, C.S. Lewis, who wrote the books, was a famous atheist who then became a famous convert to Christianity. I have read quite a lot of his books other than “The Chronicles of Narnia.” “Yes, Aslan symbolizes a Christ-like figure, but he also symbolizes for me Mohammed, Buddha and all the great spiritual leaders and prophets over the centuries,” he said. “That’s who Aslan stands for as well as a mentor figure for kids – that’s what he means for me,” he added. Walter Hooper, C.S. Lewis’s former secretary and a trustee of his estate, disagreed with Neeson’s assessment. “Lewis would have simply denied that,” said Hooper, an American Catholic who lives in Oxford, England. “He (Lewis) wrote that the ‘whole Narnian story is about Christ,’” he told Catholic News Service in a Dec. 2 telephone interview. “It is nothing whatever to do with Islam. Lewis could not have been clearer.” Hooper said that Lewis, an Anglican, had offered Aslan “as an answer to the question: What would Christ, the Son of God, be like if he had been born in the land of Narnia instead of being born in Bethlehem?” He attributed Neeson’s remarks to “political correctness” and a desire to be “very multicultural,” adding: “I don’t know Liam Neeson or what he is thinking about … but it was not Lewis’ intention.” But Georgie Henley, 16, who has played the character of Lucy Pevensie in the “Narnia” movies, defended her co-star.

THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE. KNOWLEDGE ORGANISER (Year 7) PAGE 1 CHARACTERS Aslan The king and god of Narnia. The noble lion sacrifices his life so that the Witch will spare Edmund. After being resurrected the next morning, Aslan rises and defeats the White Witch once and for all. In the context of the book's Christian allegory, Aslan represents Christ. The White Witch This evil queen of Narnia places a spell on the land so that it is winter and never Christmas. The Witch is the "Emperor's hangman," as Mr. Beaver says, and she has the right to kill any Narnian traitor. She wields a wand that turns creatures and people to stone. The wand also produces the Turkish Delight that enslaves Edmund and makes him greedy. The Witch kills Aslan, and it is only after he rises from the dead that he defeats her. Like any malicious character, the Witch, an embodiment of evil, could represent Satan, or she may be a servant of Satan. "She calls herself the Queen of Narnia thought she has no right to be queen at all, and all the Fauns and Dryands and Naiads and Dwarfs and Animals—at least all the good ones—simply hate her.“ Peter Pevensie Peter is the oldest of the Pevensie children, and he is noble and courageous. He matures into a young man during his first few days in Narnia. He immediately proves himself after protecting Susan from a ferocious wolf. Aslan knights him, and eventually crowns him the High King of Narnia.
