Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia have stimulated imaginations for more than half a century, inspiring childhood wonder, earnest faith and spirited debate regarding Christian doctrine. Widely studied and revered, Lewis' Chronicles are structured around deep paradigms and resounding questions: How do the books form such an intimate, personal bond with readers both young and old? Does Narnia betray some hidden Universalism in Lewis' theology? What are we to think of the evil dark-skinned Calormenes from the South who seem to represent the Arab race? What really prevented Susan from entering Narnia? What does Aslan's characterization as a "tame lion" say about Lewis' thoughts on providence? In an enchanting and thorough exploration of all things theological and mythological in the Chronicles, Revisiting Narnia takes you well beyond the Stable Door. Contributors include: Renowned Lewis scholar Colin Duriez, who reveals the destruction of the modern spell of materialism through the rehabilitation of human values in Narnia; New York Times bestselling fantasy author (and agnostic) Jacqueline Carey on her deep respect for the terrible beauty and devastating brilliance of the Narnia stories; PETA's co-founder and president Ingrid Newkirk, who shows how Lewis sought to blur the speciees barrier, displaying an empathy and fondness for animals that was ahead of his time - but asks if his religion and era failed him; Post-modern scholar Louis Markos on how the Chronicles illustrate that Christ and the Gospels are things to be experienced and felt rather than studied and interpreted; Literature and film scholar Charie Starr, who makes the extraordinarily convincing argument that fairy tales like Lewis' are actually true." - from the rear outer cover.
