At the end of the novel, based on Peter's development of being transformed into a hero, he is given many titles such as, Sir Peter Wolf’s Bane, King Peter the Magnificent, and High…

Lewis has a very strong resemblance to Augustine’s beliefs and it is wide spread throughout…

    There are many instances where both Aslan and the White Witch reference “the Deep Magic”, which is the law carved into the ancient stone table that all Narnians must abide by. The “Deep Magic” would be the equivalent of the Ten Commandments from the Old Testament, the written law given to Moses. These commandments outline how the Jews should live; it tells them what they should not do if they want to live a life that honors God. In the same way, the law carved onto the stone table dictates…
