Narnian timeline

<onlyinclude>
C. S. Lewis, author of The Chronicles of Narnia, provided a Narnian timeline to map out the events that occur or are mentioned in his books. He gave an "Outline of Narnian History" in manuscript form to Walter Hooper, who included it in his essay Past Watchful Dragons: The Fairy Tales of C. S. Lewis . In the series proper, Lewis never explicitly stated the year or years in which events in the novels took place, so the timeline is the only source for this information.</onlyinclude> Kathryn Lindskoog, along with other Lewis scholars, has challenged the authenticity of some posthumous works attributed to Lewis and edited by Hooper, but the validity of the outline in particular has not been questioned. The outline is accepted by Lewis experts and has been included in works by Paul Ford, Martha Sammons and others.
