  • 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.

    “ASLAN’S OWN LAND”: PASTORAL, IMPERIALISM, AND ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP IN C.S. LEWIS’S THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA By Copyright 2013 Clare Echterling Submitted to the graduate degree program in English and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Byron Caminero-Santangelo ________________________________ Dr. Giselle Anatol ________________________________ Dr. Paul Outka Date Defended: March 5, 2013 ii The Thesis Committee for Clare Echterling certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: “ASLAN’S OWN LAND”: PASTORAL, IMPERIALISM, AND ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP IN C.S. LEWIS’S THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Byron Caminero-Santangelo Date approved: March 5, 2013 iii Abstract Recent scholarship on C.S. Lewis’s life, work, and personal views of nature has suggested that we should use his enduring children’s series The Chronicles of Narnia to teach youth environmental appreciation and stewardship. Lewis’s fiction is rich with detailed descriptions of environments that function as more than mere background for human drama; his characters, both human and non-human, often express a deep reverence for the world around them. This is particularly clear in Narnia, in which the kingdom simultaneously mirrors and transcends our own Earth. However, Lewis presents a very specific environmental vision based on his own interpretation of Christian theology that, at the same time, remains bound to the imperial ideologies that dominated Lewis’s time. Together these factors limit Lewis’s environmental vision so that it becomes parochial and culturally exclusive. In fact, the series depicts a type of environmental stewardship that consciously and unconsciously works to legitimize Christian dominion and imperial projects.
