The Chronicles of Narnia (1950-1956) which was written by C.S. Lewis (1897-1963), have been very popular among children all over the world for more than 60 years. One of the major features of the series is the presence of Non-Human Characters. Their behavior, especially their speech, reflects Lewis’s sense of values he intended to convey to the children. In this article, gender roles of the Non-Human Characters in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, the second book of The Chronicle, are mainly analyzed through their behavior in order to clarify Lewis’ views of gender.
