  • The Magician's Nephew Is a Fictional Fantasy
    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background of the Research The Chronicles of Narnia: the Magician’s Nephew is a fictional fantasy novel written by C. S. Lewis as the sixth book of the series. This novel was published in 1955 by HarperCollins. Even though it was published as the sixth book, chronically the story of the novel happened before The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, which makes this novel as the first book of the series. The Chronicles of Narnia consists of seven books; “The Magician’s Nephew”, “The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe”, “The Horse and His Boy”, “Prince Caspian”, “The Voyage of the Dawn Treader”, “The Silver Chair” and “The Last Battle”. The story of The Magician’s Nephew is about Digory Kirke and Polly Plummer, two children characters, which have to protect and save Narnia from Queen Jadis and Uncle Andrew, two adult characters that want to exploit and destroy it. There is an irony about how children grow up with a lesson that they have to save the nature, but the adults ruin it. Based on that fact, I believe that humans can be divided into two types of behavior seen from the way they are treating the nature, the protector and the destroyer. This novel describes that the serenity of nature is the important thing that becomes the reason of Digory and Polly to begin their journey. Based on that aspect, humans know nature is a thing that cannot be avoided in our life since humans grow up in nature and most of bedtime stories and fairytales take nature as its settings.

  • The Horse and His Boy
    Quick Card: The horse and his boy The Horse and His Boy, by C. S. Lewis. Reference ISBN: 9780007588541 Shasta, a Northerner enslaved to a Calormene fisherman, dreams of escape to the free North of Archenland. With the help of a talking horse named Bree, Shasta flees, meeting another pair of fugitives along the way: Plot Aravis and her talking horse Hwin. As they journey northwards, the four uncover a plot by Rabadash, the prince of Calormene, to conquer Archenland and threaten the peace of the northern lands. They race to warn the Archenlanders and rally the Narnians to their aid. This story is set during the Golden reign of the Pevensie children: Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy. Calormene- A land South of Narnia, it is home to cruel, pagan slave lords: the Tarquins. Setting Narnia- Home of the four kings and queens of legend and kingdom of the lion Aslan, the Son of the King Beyond the Sea. Archenland- Borderland between Calormene and Narnia, populated by free people whose loyalty is to Narnia and Aslan. Shasta- The protagonist of the piece is a young boy, uneducated and neglected. Though he is immature, he has an inbred longing for freedom and justice and an indomitable hope to escape to the free North. Bree recognizes at once that he must be “of true Northern stock.” Bree- Pompous and self-important, the Narnian horse brags about his knowledge of the North and plays the courageous war-horse though he is really a coward at heart. Despite his boorish tone, he is a loyal friend.

  • BONES ! the Last Battle by C.S
    BOOK BONES ! The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis ! Key Insights • The planetary influence in this novel is Saturn, a planet associated with age, weakness, decay, darkness, and death. Saturn exerts a bitter influence on the Earth, and tends to evoke two drastically different responses (“for bane or blessing”): 1) to abandon faith and hope in a Goodness beyond the evils of this world (the “Tash response”), or 2) to persevere and believe in spite of all evidence to the contrary (the “Aslan response”). • The influence of Saturn on the earth should lead good people to contemplate what is really true and really important; Saturn’s bitter wisdom should deepen their faith not destroy it. This points to the Christological significance of Saturn and the central theme of The Last Battle: the presence of Christ in human loneliness and suffering (“hope when all other lights have gone out”). • Ginger is an example of the first kind of response to Saturn, the response that loses faith in Aslan. Greeted with the idea that Aslan is “nothing more” than Tash, Ginger abandons his faith in anything divine and becomes a ringleader in the “Tashlan conspiracy.” King Tirian exemplifies the obedient response to Saturn: though he has temporary doubts about Aslan’s goodness, he perseveres in hope and acts as a good and faithful king of Narnia—even though there is very little evidence that Aslan cares about the plight of his people. • This novel differs from the others in many ways: an adult protagonist (makes the book older and more mature, like Saturn himself), no clear quest/objective, several narrow misses (“if only”); situation for the company gets continually worse, every hope frustrated by some unfortunate, unforeseen circumstance; far more characters die in this novel as well—every major character tastes death before the novel ends.
