Symbolism in C.S Lewis’ The Magician’s Nephew and The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe

Abstract

The Symbolist movement is a reaction against naturalism and realism. The main goal was to express the ideal, an attempt to spiritualize the literature which was to be reflection. Symbolism becomes an important device for writers in literature. It is literary symbols which help the writers to extend the meaning beyond through analysis and exposition.
