This paper compares dialogue in, 1) C.S. Lewis' "The Silver Chair" to that in Scripture, and 2) dialogue in "The Sliver Chair" as it relates to Martin Buber's concept of "I and Thou." In both cases, the focus is on how dialogue contributes to relationships. First we examine the intrinsic value of dialogue by examining 1) Chapter 2 of "The Silver Chair" in relation to Chapter 4 of the Book of John in The New Testament and 2) Chapter 12 of "The Silver Chair" in relation to Chapter 3 of Genesis in The Old Testament. Finally we explore the essential nature of the dialogue in "The Silver Chair" from a viewpoint of "I-Thou" and "I-It," a concept advocated by the Austrian philosopher Martin Buber, and seek possibility for moderns to break through destructive interpersonal communication in multicultural societies.
