As a transformed Christian, soldier, author or speaker, CS Lewis inspired many during his life. The trials he faced in his life made him a more inspiring and respectable author and person. Narnia, one of his most popular works, demonstrates moral characteristics in a way that we can more easily understand with fictional characters and settings (Gilbert 14).Young LifeClive Staples Lewis was born in Belfast, Ireland North, from Albert J. Lewis and Florence Hamilton Lewis (Lewis Foundation) on November 29, 1898 (Gormley 2). As a child, Clive Staples Lewis immediately disliked his name and wanted to be called "Jack" and was sometimes called "Jacksie" (Id. 1). As a young child, Jack enjoyed playing and exploring with his older brother in the family home called “Little Léa” (Id. 7). He also loved reading and began to invent stories and poems at a very young age (Imbornoni). Her favorite books included Treasure Island by Robert Stevenson and The Secret Garden by Frances Burnett (Id.). Another of his favorite activities was playing in a carved wooden cabinet that his grandfather had made, this was the cabinet that later inspired the entrance to Narnia (Gormley 125). His mother, Florence Lewis, was diagnosed with cancer and continued to get sick; Jack prayed to God that his mother would get better (Lewis Foundation). When Jack's mother died on August 23, 1908, when Jack was about ten years old, Jack became angry with God for not saving his mother. (Id.) Florence Lewis died of cancer on her husband's birthday, the same year her Jack's grandfather and uncle died (Id.). Shortly after their mother's death, Jack and his brother were sent to a boarding school in Belsen, Ireland (Gilbert 9). In this school, Jack begins...... in the middle of a paper ...... of sadness (Id.). In July 1963, Lewis fell into a coma and was expected to die; he eventually emerged from the coma and resigned his professorship at Cambridge. (Identifier.). On November 22, 1963, CS Lewis died on Friday a week before his 65th birthday (Id.). He passed to the Fours and was buried in his cemetery not far from there (Id.). It was the same day that President John F. Kennedy was assassinated and English writer Aldous Huxley died (Lewis Foundation).Leaving a LegacyC.S. Lewis left more in this world than his writings. He has and will inspire many people with his demonstration of God's forgiving love. His “Chronicles of Narnia” are now adapted for film and the books have sold more than 100 million copies (Imbornoni). Even though nearly forty-seven years have passed since his death, people continue to appreciate the works of CS Lewis..
