In this second book of C.S. Lewis’ Space Trilogy, Ransom is sent on a mission to Venus where he battles demonic forces in an attempt to preserve the innocence of a young culture. Ransom discovers the importance of trusting God in dangerous situations, obeying His leading even when he does not understand, resisting despair and temptation, and standing for righteousness. As always, Lewis tackles deep concepts without ever being preachy.
Lewis’ Ransom also experiences the effects of philosophical concepts from existentialism, positivism and ontology, and learns to distinguish the good from the bad. This C. S. Lewis Perelandra study guide for high school coaches teens in noticing and analyzing these concepts. Understanding and choosing to employ or confront ideas from various philosophies is an important skill that homeschool high schoolers will begin to form while working through the Perelandra study guide.
The study guide for high school students to use with C. S. Lewis’ Perelandra is learning that contains NO busywork – like all of our guides it offers important take-aways from each book.
In Vicki Tillman’s Perelandra Study Guide for high school, homeschooling teens will gain experience in inferential skills and critical thinking. They will explore deep theological concepts. They will confront philosophies that Lewis believed are destructive…AND they will discover C.S. Lewis as a character in the book!

The Space Trilogy is a good high school choice as a stand-alone literature series. For students who are studying History and Philosophy of the Western World, this series is an excellent complementary choice because it will illustrate some of the concepts learned in the course. (We recommend it for the 4th quarter of the school year for History and Philosophy of the Western World students.)
