In De complete Kronieken van Narnia staat de strijd tussen goed en kwaad centraal. Het is een verhaal over een magisch land, waar de bomen en dieren kunnen spreken. Regelmatig vinden er veldslagen plaats tussen reuzen, centauren, dwergen en faunen. De goede kant wordt in de strijd meerdere malen bijgestaan door vier kinderen: Peter, Susan, Edmund en Lucy Pevensie. En natuurlijk de machtige leeuw Aslan, wiens kracht bijna oneindig lijkt…

The four Pevensies help Caspian battle Miraz and ascend his rightful throne NARNIA... the land between the lamp-post and the castle of Cair Paravel, where animals talk, where magical things happen... and where the adventure begins. Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy are returning to boarding school when they are summoned from the dreary train station (by Susan's own magic horn) to return to the land of Narnia—the land where they had ruled as kings and queens and where their help is desperately needed.

Zo erg is de toestand in Narnia nog niet geweest. Als Jill en Eustaas, even onverwacht als altijd, Narnia weer binnenkomen, blijkt er iets vreselijks aan de hand te zijn. De sluwe aap Draaier heeft zijn vriend, de domme ezel Puzzel, een leeuwenhuid aangetrokken, en zegt tegen iedereen dat hij Aslan is. En veel dieren die Aslan nog nooit gezien hebben, geloven hem, zelfs als de bevelen van de namaak-Aslan steeds slechter en wreder worden. Tirian, de koning van Narnia, moet snel handelen, voordat de vrede in het koninkrijk helemaal weg is.

Vier kinderen, Peter, Susan, Edmund en Lucy gaan logeren bij Professor Kirke. Op een regenachtige dag spelen ze verstoppertje in het grote, geheimzinnige huis. Lucy ontdekt een logeerkamer waar een kleerkast staat. Ze doet de kast open en stapt erin. Ze probeert met haar handen de achterwand te voelen...tot haar schrik zit er helemaal geen achterwand in de kast! Ze loopt zomaar een ander land binnen, waar een lantaarnpaal schijnt midden in een sneeuwlandschap. Daar ontmoet Lucy een vriendelijke faun, meneer Tumnus. Ze gaat bij hem op bezoek. Als ze weer terug komt door de kast geloven haar broer en zus niets van haar verhaal. Maar op een dag maken ze precies hetzelfde mee als Lucy. In Narnia is een strijd aan de gang, waar de kinderen bij worden betrokken. Samen met Aslan vechten ze tegen de Witte Heks. Het lijkt erop dat hun avonturen slecht aflopen, maar Aslan is veel machtiger dan iemand had kunnen denken.

Vier kinderen die door een betoverde kleerkast in het land Narnia terechtkomen, strijden met Aslan de Leeuw tegen de Witte Tovenares.

The narrative begins with "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," where four siblings—Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie—discover Narnia through a wardrobe and become embroiled in the battle between the White Witch and Aslan, a noble lion. As the series progresses, themes of bravery, sacrifice, and redemption are explored through various adventures, including the quest for the lost prince in "Prince Caspian" and the journey to the end of the world in "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader." Key characters such as Aslan, representing good and wisdom, and the White Witch, embodying evil and tyranny, are central to the unfolding allegorical narrative. Other notable figures include the brave mouse Reepicheep and the loyal dwarf Trumpkin.

The nationality question was supposedly closed within the USSR over forty years ago. It has, however, been dramatically reopened by fresh generations of educated leaders emerging among all the major Soviet nationalities. They have made obsolete the old Russian-Communist policy of extending token recognition to nationality groups officially differentiated mainly by reference to variations in language, folklore, or costume. Economic advance and disproportionate population increases among many nationalities have added impetus to this awakening. With self-determination the watchword in most other developing countries, it is evident that the Kremlin leadership now faces an array of modern problems in its old-fashioned empire. Simultaneously, social and technological changes are forcing the Soviet nationalities to reconsider courses of action crucial to their future. The present volume demonstrates the extraordinary range of nationality problems besetting the USSR. The issues are considered broadly and their possible resolutions are examined from both a contemporary and historical perspective. The authors scrutinize significant problems through the methodologies supplied by key academic disciplines. Research sources for nationality study are discussed in a bibliographical section; maps and tables summarize census and other current data about the nationality question.

C. S. Lewis explores the fascination with language by taking a series of words and teasing out their connotations.

"Professor Lewis believed that literature exists above all for the joy of the reader and that books should be judged by the kind of reading they invite. He doubted the use of strictly evaluative criticism, especially its condemnations. Literary criticism is traditionally employed in judging books, and 'bad taste' is thought of as a taste for bad books. Professor Lewis' experiment consists in reversing the process, and judging literature itself by the way men read it. He defined a good book as one which can be read in a certain way, a bad book as one which can only be read in another. He was therefore mainly preoccupied with the notion of good reading: and he showed that this, in its surrender to the work on which it is engaged, has something in common with love, with moral action, and with intellectual achievement. In good reading we should be concerned less in altering our own opinions than in entering fully into the opinions of others; "in reading great literature I become a thousand men and yet remain myself". As with all that Professor Lewis wrote, the arguments are stimulating and the examples apt"--Publisher description.

The workplace has become a hotbed of social toxicity - from the #MeToo movement to WeWork, it's clear that abusive bosses and entrenched cultures of discrimination have become more prevalent than ever.

Love is the commonest these of serious imaginative literature and is still generally regarded as anble and ennbling passion.

As part of the repackaged and rebranded C.S. Lewis Signature Classic range, this title in which Lewis answers the question, 'Do miracles really happen?' will have obvious appeal to the growing spirituality market.

Lewis shows that a Christian must not only accept but rejoice in miracles as a testimony of the unique personal involvement of God in his creation. Using his characteristic lucidity and wit to develop his argument, Lewis challenges the rationalists and cynics who are mired in their lack of imagination and provides a poetic and joyous affirmation that miracles really fo occur in our everyday lives.

Written during the dark hours immediately before and during World War II, C. S. Lewis's Space Trilogy, of which That Hideous Strength is the third and final volume, stands alongside such works as Albert Camus's The Plague and George Orwell's 1984 as a timely parable that has become timeless, beloved by succeeding generations as much for the sheer wonder of its storytelling as for the significance of its moral concerns. The final book in C. S. Lewis's acclaimed Space Trilogy, which includes Out of the Silent Planet and Perelandra, That Hideous Strength concludes the adventures of the matchless Dr. Ransom. The dark forces that were repulsed in Out of the Silent Planet and Perelandra are massed for an assault on the planet Earth itself. Word is on the wind that the mighty wizard Merlin has come back to the land of the living after many centuries, holding the key to ultimate power for that force which can find him and bend him to its will. A sinister technocratic organization is gaining power throughout Europe with a plan to "recondition" society, and it is up to Ransom and his friends to squelch this threat by applying age-old wisdom to a new universe dominated by science. The two groups struggle to a climactic resolution that brings the Space Trilogy to a magnificent, crashing close.
