This study explores C. S. Lewis’s portrayal of desire/greed in Out of the Silent Planet, the first of his Space Trilogy. After an introductory note on Lewis’s concern to connect supernatural with mundane, the novel’s background is explained with a sketch of its storyline. The first main section deals with Devine, a paragon of materialistic greed. In light of Lewis’s “dialectic of enjoyment and renunciation,” he constitutes a tragic case of a “wrong attitude toward things.” a futile attempt to grasp eternity with transient things. The cold-blooded “evolutionist” Weston is clothed with the ideal of “eternal prosperity of humanity,” which seems to transcend mere materialistic desire. Yet he too is driven by fear of death, possessed by the egocentric desire to become his own mater. The study makes constant references to Byung-chul Han, a Korean German philosopher, noting the remarkable correspondence between the two, very different, thinkers. Toward the end of the study a critical reflection is offered on the unmistakable difference between Lewis the hopeful Christian and Han an atheist philosopher.
