| Summary: | This article aims to analyze the religious allegories of the Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis. Initially, the study presents a brief distinction between the notions of cultural industry and pop culture to justify that the Narnia series’ literary and film versions are situated within the scope of pop culture. Then, the text presents the articulation between Lewis’ life and demonstrates that the author’s journey, which moved from atheism to conversion to Christianity, is reflected in the conception of his children’s fable. Finally, we argue that the experience of Christian life transmitted allegorically in the books and films of the Chronicles of Narnia attests to its longevity and relevance and contemplates pop culture’s main characteristics since it is innovative, critical archetypal, and provocative. O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar as alegorias religiosas das Crônicas de Nárnia, de C. S. Lewis. Inicialmente, o estudo apresenta uma breve distinção entre as noções de indústria cultural e cultura pop para justificar que as versões literárias e fílmicas da série Nárnia estão situadas no âmbito da cultura pop. Em seguida, o texto apresenta a articulação entre a vida e a obra de Lewis para demonstrar que a jornada pessoal do autor, que transitou do ateísmo à conversão ao cristianismo, refletiu na concepção de sua fábula infanto-juvenil. Finalmente, sustentamos que a experiência de vida cristã transmitida de modo alegórico nos livros e filmes das Crônicas de Nárnia atesta sua longevidade e relevância, além de contemplar as principais características da cultura pop, visto que é inovadora, crítica, arquetípica e provocadora. |
