Cherith C- Student's Choice #4

When we were talking in class about C.S. Lewis and his novels, and how landscapes are more than geographical in spiritual contexts.  I remember reading Lewis's novels like The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.  In my mind I view the entire novel as a landscape which creates a framework for how we interpret the text.  One thing that I always heard about C.S. Lewis' novels and others like J.K. Rowling, is about the spiritual aspects of their novels.  These two authors in particular deal with the supernatural in their most famous works, but I have also seen that to be interpreted as a storyline for good versus evil. Like in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe I have seen Aslan, the lion, depicted as being God or a God-like figure.  This inclusion of the spiritual into more secular texts increases the span of the supernatural.
