The Multifaceted Role Of Imagination With Reference By C. S. Lewis

Abstract

Imagination is a unique talent that allows individuals to create extraordinary things. There are various types of imagination, such as effective imagination, intellectual imagination, imaginative fantasy, and strategic imagination. Imagination is essential for creating art, literature, and other creative works. Many famous authors, such as Shakespeare, Jonathan Swift, and Daniel Defoe, have used their imagination to create timeless classics, which are beloved by readers, especially children. Children's literature writers often use creativity to captivate young readers. C.S. Lewis, for instance, demonstrated immense creativity in "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe," where he explored various themes with vivid imagination. In my research, I am focusing on Lewis's multifaceted use of imagination in his work and how he brings each theme to life.
