The Wicked Ways of the White Witch: How Evil is Evident in Jadis‚ the “Queen” of Narnia It was once said that “evil enters like a needle and spreads like an oak tree” (“Ethiopian”). In C. S. Lewis’ The Lion‚ the Witch‚ and the Wardrobe‚ evil enters the fictitious world of Narnia and quickly diffuses throughout the land. This evil permeates every aspect of its society and has its inhabitants living in fear of the source: Jadis‚ “Queen” of Narnia‚ better known as the White Witch. She is

Mere Christianity C.S. Lewis’ argument for a Universal Law comes from ancient antiquity where it was referred to as the Law of Nature. This Law of Nature was something so inherent and so primal that it seemed all were bound to in some way. Now there is all sorts of law that we are bound to yet the only true law that we can break is the Natural Law. We can not as C. S. Lewis points out defy gravity or further defy Newtonian physics‚ but we can choose to not follow the standard. For example‚ if someone

that I do not fully understand why Lewis chose to include a chapter about animal pain in this book. To me it has no value in his argument about why Man must suffer the problem of pain‚ and seems to not expand the subject at all.

C.S. Lewis’ descriptions of heaven and hell in the book The Great Divorce are mainly metaphorical‚ as he wants to illustrate the fundamental differences between the two places that we have all grown up knowing about. To do this he uses the typical illustrations such as light and dark‚ sunrise and sunset‚ and mountains and valleys‚ or deep ravines. However‚ I think many things that are spoken about in the book are very similar to the actual places. Several differences are the people‚ the weather and
