This fascinating book explores the numerous literary connections and themes underlying Prince Caspian and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, the second and third books in C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia series, following the same format of Paths in the Snow, Jem Bloomfield's popular exploration of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. From Dante to The Wind in the Willows, and from medieval dream poetry to Dorothy L. Sayers, Gold on the Horizon uncovers the literary connections which criss-cross Narnia. Stories, myth and literature played a central role in Lewis’ personal life and religious imagination: he was a professor of literature who came back to faith by seeing the Christian story as a “true myth” created by God. Untangling the fascinating network of literary allusions and sources in Prince Caspian and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader helps to bring Lewis’ vision into focus. This study also examines the time in which the Narnia books were written, shedding light on its historical and cultural context, and how these shaped its meaning for its first readers. The book then proceeds chapter by chapter through Prince Caspian and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, making it ideal for reading groups or study sessions. It also provides an opportunity for readers to branch off into their own journey through the literary and theological sources which stocked Lewis’ mind. The perfect gift for any Narnian, and a valuable resource for groups, Gold on the Horizon will appeal to all fans of C.S. Lewis’ work, and enable anyone to stand at the wardrobe door, and go further in.
