A philosophical pass through The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe: Deep Magic and Deeper Magic, the Stone Table, and the way Lewis wakes desire toward Aslan rather than mere escape. This class lecture from The Fiction and Philosophy of C.S. Lewis complements the longer Fiction and Philosophy lecture on the same book (linked below).

Dr. Andrew Snyder (professor of philosophy and theology) reads winter without Christmas, dangerous creatures (including the dual nature of the faun), and how sacrifice remakes Narnia’s moral weather. Topics include mythic mood, seduction vs. reason, and why the wardrobe still opens onto philosophy for adult readers.
