Abstract
This paper revisits C.S. Lewis's relationship with his Irish roots and offers a geo-critical reading of his 1951 novel Prince Caspian. An excavation of Irish elements latent in this text yields important insights into Lewis's preoccupations, including colonialism and conflict, and ecological crisis. The paper situates these concerns in an Irish cultural context but concludes that Lewis's thinking is of contemporary relevance and worthy of renewed focus, not only in Ireland but globally.
