From the White Witch to the Dark Mark
by Sarah Fiona Winters
This scholarly analysis explores how C.S. Lewis and J.K. Rowling portray evil and resistance to it in their beloved fantasy series, offering readers of all backgrounds meaningful lessons about fighting darkness in our world. Through examining iconic villains like the White Witch and Lord Voldemort, the book reveals how these timeless stories engage with real historical struggles and provide both religious and secular families with frameworks for understanding good versus evil. A thoughtful resource for parents and older teens interested in understanding the deeper messages woven into these classic children's fantasy worlds.
This book analyzes representations of evil in The Chronicles of Narnia and Harry Potter series, examining the strategies for fighting evil that these texts offer to both religious and secular readers. It argues that postwar children's fantasy engages seriously and profoundly with the atrocities of the twentieth century.
