Setting

The setting of the novel is where and when a story takes place. The setting influences the characters' behaviors and plot events. Settings may be real (concrete) or imaginary (abstract). 

Possible Parts of a Setting
-Time Period (historic)
-Time of Day
-Season
-Geographic Location
 
1. What is the setting of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe? Is there more than one? Explain. 

2. View the links below and write a summary about the setting of the novel. Summaries are brief and highlight key ideas. 

3. How does the setting of the story influence the characters? Use specific examples.

    1 There are the wardrobe, Narnia, the beavers house

    2 The Pevensies find out a magical world of Narnia like talking to beavers and trees spying on you.

    3 They are influenced by all the unbelevible stuff like talking beavers, spying trees, and such others.

    1.the main setting is Narnia. the minor setting is the Professors Mansion.

    2.Narnia is a magical land with mythological creatures. the Professors Mansion is a old fashion mansion

    3.Narnia changes some of the charactors:beliefes, actions, words and feelings.

    1.the main setting is narnia and the others that clifton and kyle are describing are minor settings because the white witches castle is in narnia but it plays a big roll in the story so it could eaisly be mistaken for the main setting 2.the main setting in the websites are .basicly war and old times.
    3.the setting''narnia '' influences the characters for example since the children have been to narnia they now belive that anything can happen.

    I want you to answer ALL of the questions in a single post. It is very difficult for me to keep going back and trying to find a flow in your ideas. Make sure your presentation of your ideas is clear because I am getting a bit lost.

    I love that you are trying, but I need solid, interesting sentences with complete thoughts.

    3. when they all enter Narnia They are influenced by the magic all around them and also by everyone around them.

  38. SammyGMarch 4, 2009 at 6:09 PM

    1. There are many settings in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. One, for example, is the Professor's Mansion. There is also The White Witches Castle, Cair Paravel, The Stone Table, The Lamppost, and the one where all these are located, Narnia.

    2.It is during the World War II air raids in London, and the Pevensies go to their uncle's mansion to get away. While playing hide and seek, Lucy looks into a wardrobe, and... she sees a magical world full of ice and snow. This land is called Narnia. Entering the Wardrobe together, the Pevesies restore it to it's former glory of lush green forests and blue waterfalls, and become the kings and queens of Narnia.

    3.It influences them as a strange, mystical world.
