C.S. Lewis by Michelle Ann Abate

C.S. Lewis by Michelle Ann Abate

C. S. Lewis's seven-book series about the fictional land of Narnia has become an irrefutable classic. This collection of original, wide-ranging essays explores the past, present and future importance of The Chronicles of Narnia, providing the most current, and some of the most cutting-edge, research about this popular fantasy series.

'Useful reading for a student interested in new approaches in the research of children's literature..this book opens new perspectives on the work of C.S. Lewis, which may encourage further scholarly discussion of his series as one of the most popular stories of fantasy fiction for children worldwide.' - Libri & Liberi 'The essays are accessible without being simple. Students reading the entire book will encounter a range of theoretical approaches being skilfully and productively applied to The Chronicles of Narnia.' - Richard C.Burke, Lynchburg College, USA 'This wide-ranging collection of essays focuses on currently high profile issues in, and approaches to, children's literature. It explores not only the original texts of The Chronicles of Narnia, but also their afterlife in films and other media, with helpful discussions of issues relating to adaptation. I'm not aware of an equivalent volume on C.S. Lewis.' - William Gray, University of Chichester, UK
