Abstract
In his fairy tales «The Chronicles of Narnia» and his novel «Till we have faces» C. S. Lewis used several plots of ancient mythology to illustrate his own view of God’s relationship with a person. In these works of the English writer the myth of Cupid and Psyche, the images of Zephyr, Bacchus and his Maenads, Silenus and Fauns personify plenty of life given by Christ.
