The Keys to the Chronicles: Unlocking the Symbols of C. S. Lewis's Narnia [Paperback]
by Marvin Hinten
Most readers of the C. S. Lewis's "Chronicles of Narnia" know that there is more there than meets the eye. Certain story elements have obvious dual meanings--a second layer below the surface--like the death and resurrection of Aslan the lion.
But where does the name Aslan come from? What are other key Bible references in the "Chronicles of Narnia"? Did Lewis make up the names, or do they have a deeper meaning too? And do even Lewis's own personal feelings about prunes show up in these books?
"The Keys to the Chronicles" unlocks the literary, linguistic, biographical, biblical, and mythological depth of Lewis's masterpiece.
Broadman & Holman Publishers (October 2005). Trade paperback. 128 pages.
