Planet Narnia : the seven heavens in the imagination of C.S. Lewis

Ward, Michael, 1968-2010
Book
Michael Ward argues that medieval cosmology, a subject that fascinated Lewis throughout his life, provides the imaginative key to the seven Narnia novels. He shows that Narnia stories were designed to express the characteristics of the seven medieval planets, described by Lewis as 'spiritual symbols of permanent value'.
