Open a door and enter a magical world. A beautiful paperback edition of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, book two in the classic fantasy series, The Chronicles of Narnia. This edition is complete with cover and interior art by the original illustrator, Pauline Baynes. Four adventurous siblings – Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie – step through a wardrobe door and into the land of Narnia, a land frozen in eternal winter and enslaved by the power of the White Witch. But when almost all hope is lost, the return of the Great Lion, Aslan, signals a great change . . . and a great sacrifice. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is the second book in C. S. Lewis's classic fantasy series, which has been drawing readers of all ages into a magical land with unforgettable characters for over sixty years. This is a stand-alone read, but if you would like to explore more of the Narnian realm, pick up The Horse and His Boy, the third book in The Chronicles of Narnia.
Compuestas como una colección de envÃos ficticios a su amigo Malcolm, Si Dios no escuchase: Cartas a Malcolm acerca de la oración considera esta muestra básica de devoción en su forma, contenido y regularidad, y las maneras en que refleja nuestra fe y moldea nuestra forma de creer. En esta edición de la ficticia colección de cartas de C. S. Lewis, el venerado autor reflexiona sobre la naturaleza de la oración: qué es, cómo funciona y cómo debe practicarse. La oración es un don puro, un gran regalo de Dios. Asà lo entiende también Lewis. Con su brillantez habitual, el autor utiliza su correspondencia con otro intelectual para arrojar luz sobre cuestiones como: ¿Cuál es el valor de la oración? ¿Es la oración un soliloquio que nadie escucha? ¿Qué ocurre realmente cuando oramos? ¿Tiene sentido orar por los difuntos? ¿Por qué es importante la liturgia? En sus argumentos, Lewis muestra una fuerte convicción y, al mismo tiempo, una gran sensibilidad y comprensión hacia las debilidades y temores del hombre. Aunque Lewis nunca pretendió que este fuera un libro de instrucciones sobre cómo orar, descubrió que el formato de correspondencia le permitÃa compartir sus reflexiones de forma dinámica y personal. Si Dios no escuchase: Cartas a Malcom acerca de la oración fue el último libro que terminó C. S. Lewis. Publicado póstumamente en enero de 1964, tres meses después de su muerte, es uno de los mejores libros de Lewis, aunque quizá no uno de los más conocidos. Letters To Malcom: Chiefly on Prayer Composed as a collection of fictitious dispatches to his friend, Malcolm, Letters to Malcolm: Chiefly on Prayer considers this basic display of devotion in its form, content, and regularity, and the ways it both reflects our faith and shapes how we believe. In this edition of C. S. Lewis’s fictitious collection of letters, the revered author ruminates on the nature of prayer—what it is, how it works, and how it should be practiced. Prayer is a pure gift, a great gift from God. This is also how Lewis understands it. With his usual brilliance, the author uses his correspondence with another intellectual to shed light on questions such as: What is the value of prayer? Is prayer a soliloquy that no one listens to? What is happening when we pray? Does it make sense to pray for the deceased? Why is liturgy important? In his arguments, Lewis shows a strong conviction and, at the same time, a great sensitivity and understanding for the weaknesses and fears of man.While Lewis never intended this to be a book of instruction on how to pray, he found that the correspondence format enabled him to share his reflections in a dynamic and personal way. Letters to Malcolm: Chiefly on Prayer was the last book C. S. Lewis finished. Published posthumously in January 1964, three months after his death, it is one of Lewis’s best books though perhaps not one of his best known.Â
Conocida como la primera novela de C. S. Lewis, esta elocuente, erudita y a menudo ingeniosa sátira de la filosofÃa contemporánea sigue siendo relevante más de 90 años después. Siguiendo el modelo del famoso Progreso del peregrino de John Bunyan, El regreso del peregrino de C. S. Lewis representa una serie de primicias para Lewis: el primer libro que escribió tras su conversión al cristianismo, su primer libro de ficción y el primer libro que publicó con su propio nombre. En cierto sentido, es el registro de la propia búsqueda de Lewis de sentido y satisfacción espiritual, una búsqueda que finalmente le condujo al cristianismo. Esta es la historia del peregrino Juan y su odisea hacia una isla encantadora que ha creado en él un intenso anhelo; un misterioso y dulce deseo. La persecución de este deseo por parte de Juan le lleva a través de aventuras con personas como el Sr. Ilustración, Media Media, el Sr. Mamón, el Sr. Sensato y el Sr. Humanista, y a través de lugares como el Valle de la Humillación. Aunque aquà los dragones y los gigantes son distintos de los de El progreso del peregrino de Bunyan, la alegorÃa de Lewis cumple la misma función de permitir al autor decir de forma sencilla y mediante la fantasÃa lo que de otro modo habrÃa exigido una filosofÃa de la religión en toda regla. La alegorÃa de Lewis sigue siendo una ingeniosa sátira de las modas culturales, un vÃvido relato de los peligros espirituales y una historia iluminadora para generaciones de antiguos y nuevos peregrinos. The Pilgrim's Regress Known as C. S. Lewis’s first novel, this eloquent, erudite, and often wittysatire of contemporary philosophy is still relevant over 90 years later. Modeled after John Bunyan’s famous Pilgrim’s Progress, C. S. Lewis’s Pilgrim’s Regress represents several firsts for Lewis—the first book he wrote after his conversion to Christianity, his first book of fiction, and the first book he published under his own name. It is, in a sense, the record of Lewis’s own search for meaning and spiritual satisfaction—a search that eventually led him to Christianity. Here is the story of the pilgrim John and his odyssey to an enchanting island which has created in him an intense longing; a mysterious, sweet desire. John's pursuit of this desire takes him through adventures with such people as Mr. Enlightenment, Media Halfways, Mr. Mammon, Mother Kirk, Mr. Sensible, and Mr. Humanist and through such cities as Thrill and Eschropolis as well as the Valley of Humiliation. Though the dragons and giants here are different from those in Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, Lewis's allegory performs the same function of enabling the author to say simply and through fantasy what would otherwise have demanded a full-length philosophy of religion. Lewis’s allegory remains a witty satire on cultural fads, a vivid account of spiritual dangers, and an illuminating tale for generations of pilgrims old and new.
A milestone in the history of popular theology, 'The Screwtape Letters' is an iconic classic on spiritual warfare and the power of the devil. This profound and striking narrative takes the form of a series of letters from Screwtape, a devil high in the Infernal Civil Service, to his nephew Wormwood, a junior colleague engaged in his first mission on earth trying to secure the damnation of a young man who has just become a Christian. Although the young man initially looks to be a willing victim, he changes his ways and is 'lost' to the young devil. Dedicated to Lewis's friend and colleague J.R.R. Tolkien, 'The Screwtape Letters' is a timeless classic on spiritual conflict and the invisible realities which are part of our religious experience.

C. S. Lewis here offers wisdom and lessons that illuminate our private dialogue with God―prayer―in this collection drawn from the breadth of his writings. The revered teacher and bestselling author of such classic Christian works as Mere Christianity and The Screwtape Letters, C. S. Lewis here offers wisdom and lessons that illuminate our private dialogue with God―prayer―in this collection drawn from the breadth of his writings. C. S. Lewis’s insights on Christianity and his reflections on Christian life continue to guide us more than fifty years after his death. How to Pray showcases Lewis’s enduring wisdom on prayer and its place in our daily lives. Cultivated from his many essays, articles, and letters, as well as his classic works, How to Pray provides practical wisdom and instruction to help readers nurture their spiritual beliefs and embrace prayer in all its forms. While many people would like to speak to God, they often don’t know how to begin. Lewis guides them through the practice, illuminating the significance of prayer and why it is central to faith. A welcome addition to the C. S. Lewis canon, How to Pray offers a deeper understanding of our personal tradition of prayer, our faith, and what is means to be a Christian.
One of the most popular and beloved introductions to the concept of faith ever written, 'Mere Christianity' has sold millions of copies worldwide. The book brings together C.S. Lewis's legendary radio broadcasts during the war years, in which he set out simply to 'explain and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times'. Rejecting the boundaries that divide Christianity's many denominations, 'Mere Christianity' provides an unequalled opportunity for believers and nonbelievers alike to absorb a powerful, rational case for the Christian faith.
An introduction to C.S. Lewis's works. This volume includes a biographical note by the editor, a complete bibliography of C.S. Lewis's works, three entire works--Perelandra, The Abolition of Man, and The Lion--and selections from some of Lewis's other popular works.
