C.S. Lewis’ Chronicles of Narnia are among the most beloved and symbolically rich books in all of children’s literature. Drawing deep upon various aspects of Lewis’ classical education, the books explore betrayal, oppression, sacrifice, honor, and forgiveness, and the character necessary to successfully navigate such dynamics in the world. This course will be attentive to the influences on the series and to its symbolic world, unraveling the layers of its meaning. This course consists of regularly scheduled seminars held on Zoom.
