Abstract

Many people have gone to the movies, and still see, in some vehicle of visual communication, the film adaptation of the masterpiece The Chronicles of Narnia and, specifically, the first book The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, written in 1949, by Clive Staples Lewis. After this book, six more books were written, in this same work. This research aims to analyze in this book, the theme in which fantasy meets reality, and intends to deepen the use of Intertextuality as the tool of this research, always observing the similarities and adaptations of this work for the cinema, exploring the intertexts of work with Christian symbolism. This research used the comparative analysis to approach, among other subjects, the symbolism, and, therefore, there were compared a few lines and facts of Lewis’s work with biblical texts, showing, though comparison, the similarity between them. The result was the existence of much similarity of the book, in general, with some biblical texts and the film with the work of Lewis, always using intertexts among themselves. This research had some authors to substantiate such as: Jackson(2003), Vigner(1988), Aguiar(2012), GailO'Day(1992), McFarlane(1996), Diniz(2004), Hooper(1988), Gil(2008), Schultz(2003), citing even Eliade(1979), Kristeva(1974), Aichele and Phillips(1995), besides Lewis(2009), who is the author of the work: The Chronicles of Narnia. For theoretical basis and further strengthen the idea of this defense. The bibliographic research was also completely, exploratory, qualitative in nature, In which were analyzed in a comparative manner all texts and intertexts.
