Publisher Description: Essay from the year 2010 in the subject English - Literature, Works, language: English, abstract: In their texts, The Chronicles of Narnia, the novel is full of elements of myth. Some of the concepts in the novel are borrowed from Greek Mythology, like the fauns, centaur, dryads, and minotaur, while giants, dwarfs are from the Norse mythology. Also, elements of Christianity are also seen in the novel, such as Aslan the lion, often compared to Jesus Christ. Apart from these, one can trace the various archetypal images, so strongly linked with the one very particular type of the story - that of the quest. |
