I looking at some of the references and passages in the novel, it is clear that the events in the story allow for multiple interpretations which are dependent upon experience of age. No matter what age the reader, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe provides a content rich experience in reading the novel. The novel, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe was published in 1950 after a failed attempt to write the novel occurred approximately a decade earlier when he wasn’t reaching his intended goals. Once he began to write again in 1948, he finished seven books in the series by 1956, although he had never intended to write a sequel to the original novel. The entire series is often used in classroom reading and is respected for both its appropriateness for children and for its various themes that help children to find ways in which to explore deeper meanings through presentations of themes in accessible forms (Hinten 2). However, there is an inherent complexity that allows for adults to also enjoy the work, thus providing for a mutually enjoyable experience that children and adults can experience together. One of the reasons that the work of C. S. Lewis in his Chronicles of Narnia can be enjoyed by adults is through the benefits it provides as a spiritual allegory. According to Bramlett, Lewis is “recognized as the greatest defender of the faith in the twentieth century” (3). He is considered one of the most famous Christians of the twentieth century, writing books on Christian science fiction as well as on topics of theology that were intended for the average person. He also wrote essays, poetry, book reviews, and articles for newspapers and journals. He is considered to have been responsible for the conversion of many people to Christianity as well as influencing the course of spiritual understanding for thousands more. His writing career began in the middle of the 1940’s and lasted until his death in 1963, providing spiritual awakening and commentary for the scores of readers who experienced his work. The Chronicles of Narnia is an allegory of Christianity that allows spiritual understanding to be accessible for children. However, according to Kubash, McNiel, Bellotto and Lewis, it was never intended to be a recreation of the Bible. The many parables within the series of books, however, were intended to create an understanding of spirituality and the sacrifice of the resurrection story. Therefore, it was written in such a way as to connect to the ways in which children understand belief, but also with enough substance to be attractive to adults. Through the use of fantastical elements, the core aspects of spiritual awakening are explored through the use of literary concepts that are more easily accessible to young minds than might be possible through the stories in the Bible. The most powerful comparison can be made between Aslan and Jesus Christ. Aslan was the son of a powerful being, The Emperor over the Sea which can be compared to Jesus being the son of God. In an event that alludes to the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ, Aslan gives his life for the sins that Edmund has committed, thus sacrificing himself in much the same way that Jesus sacrificed himself on the cross.
