Narnia 1979 (Part 3)

More material relating to the 1979 The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe animated TV special. These releases were made available to teachers and educators who would be using the special as class material. These two press releases detail the involvement of the Children’s Television Workshop, a nonprofit educational television production and media company which …

Narnia Goes to Tibet!

A Tibetan translation of LWW. Note how the illustration resembles a Buddhist  thangka in style if not subject matter. The illustrator must have read the book too, because we have leopard courtiers holding a banner and throne, an oddly cowlike satyr’s head, a unicorn and flying horse (even though they weren’t mentioned in the text, …

Narnia 1979 (Part 2)

Here’s some teachers’ notes which were sent to schools in advance of the 1979 CBS broadcast of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe cartoon. I had a moment of nostalgia reading these discussion points. First, they seem very literary and in-depth compared to the notes which would be written for students today. I can’t …

Worldbuilding Wednesday 7/15/26: Galmian Names (Narnia LXXX)

What sort of names would the folk of Galma have? Being as I have headcanoned the isle with Scottish roots, they would sound very Gaelic, like these.   Galmian Names Male Brailoc Breccan Caelan Dularic Fynian Gaerloch Keirdan Lochlain Maerchor Malric Torloc Female Aerianna Becca Eileina Eillira Faelinn Fighora Lyraena Mairen Saorthen Sorchra Tirena  

Wilt thou be mine?

It will be the wedding of the century! Sauron proposes to his ladylove Jadis of Charn, also known as the White Witch, to unite the lands of Narnia and Middle-Earth. I can’t think of a more perfect match. Can you?

Narnia Humor

Let’s take a look at Narnia humor and memes. Frankly it’s a lot harder to find them for Narnia than it is for LOTR. Tolkien’s work has the upper hand here I’m afraid. Perhaps it’s due to its length (book and movies) and higher level of popularity in the geek world. There is, too, its …

Chinese Prince Caspian

  Though the blurb for this is … mistranslated … the cover is pretty good! Caspian is the correct age, he holds Susan’s Horn, and Trufflehunter and Trumpkin are there by his side, though there’s no Reepicheep. Caspian’s wearing decent fantasy-medieval clothing as well, plus it’s white, showing he’s a good guy! He looks appropriately …

Worldbuilding Wednesday 7/8/26: Let’s Talk About Galma – and a rant about Narnia geography (Narnia LXXIX)

” [ … ] We had a fair wind from Cair Paravel and stood a little north for Galma, which we made on the next day. We were in port for a week, for the Duke of Galma made a great tournament for His Majesty and there he unhorsed many knights—” “And got a few …
