Бесплатный доступ

The paper considered the biblical motifs engendered in the up-to-date fiction pieces by the famous British science fiction writer C.S. Lewis. The paper explored a fiction piece with the title the Space Trilogy that contained spiritual motifs, being the medium for the novelist in uncovering the basics of spiritual life for the reader. The issues of faith, immortality, good, of the Divine Light and Providence being the main topics developed by the author in the fiction piece. The novelist by drawing up the fancy parallels demonstrated the essential aspects of human life on Earth, with the whole story filled with allegories referring to the biblical stories. Creation of the phantasmal world (for the purpose of explaining for people profundity of Christian values and showing their relevance) appears to be inconceivable by itself. The reader unintentionally immerse at the heart of a fascinating story created by Lewis. C.S. Lewis has brilliantly explained to his reader, what the morale is, what good and bad are, and faith, and humanist attitude, etc. One could hardly overestimate the value of the Lewis’ oeuvre for the arts. His fiction pieces are obviously up-to-date. It is important that his oeuvre still draw attention after all these years since his death, and even the young fellow researchers reserve for his oeuvre the top of the temple of fame in fiction.
