Did C.S. Lewis believed in Magic?

Answer 1

Yes, C.S. Lewis believed in the possibility of magic or supernatural forces. He wrote Fantasy Books like "The Chronicles of Narnia" that include magical elements, but he saw them as symbolic representations rather than literal manifestations. Lewis viewed magic through a Christian lens, emphasizing themes of good versus evil and spiritual allegories.

Answer 2

He wrote about an imaginary land called Narnia; the chronicles of narnia, and especially the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, are an allegory for Christianity (as well as being great fun to read!)

Answer 3

Your question is far from clear........But I will make two guesses.

1. You are referring to the movie "Shadowlands" with Anthony Hopkins and Debra Winger. It tells the lovely and tragic story of C S Lewis' marriage to Joy Gresham and it is very good - I recommend that you rent it and watch it, and look for the term shadowlands in it.

2. You are referring to a belief that underlies much of Lewis's writing. This belief comes from Plato, and in summary says that everything we see here is an imperfect "shadow" or copy of a reality in Heaven.

Answer 4

According to sources such as Wiki and Fact Monster, Lewis found the name in an atlas as a child or possibly during his university studies. It was the name of an ancient Roman colony in central Italy that was named after the river Nar (now Nera). The town of Narni, known as Narnia in Latin, nowadays tells Lewis' stories and honors their "Blessed Saint Lucy of Narnia," and the town's cathedral is adjoined with a shrine to St. Lucy.

Answer 5

CS Lewis wrote a lot of fantasy literature, so had more than one fantasy land. If you are referring to his series of seven books in the Narnia Chronicles, that land was Narnia.
