Abstract

C.S. Lewis is best known as a Christian apologist, novelist, and poet whose most notable works in the field of theology includes themes about fiction and non-fiction Christian apologetics. Based on the groundwork of scholarship on C.S. Lewis life and writings, he demonstrated that his work is theologically rich and seems to have been informed by original insight into communication theories, including gender communication. One of his most notorious books of non-fiction Christian apologetics is Mere Christianity. In Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis, looked at human life from his own philosophy of life based on the Christian Theology. By addressing the positive influence that C.S, Lewis may have on theology and communication, this research presents a comprehensive narrative analysis of the surprising elements of gender communication in Lewis' book Mere Christianity from his response to women's subordination to the challenges that Christian marriages face. The aim of this research is to analyze C.S Lewis' unique techniques of expression to reveal an intent focus on fostering gender discourses with the purpose of understanding how women and man of faith communicate in the work of Mere Christianity.
