Abstract: Scholar D.G. Kehl defines Sehnsucht as a deeper emotion than simply a strong wish for something. Throughout his various works of fiction, such as The Chronicles of Narnia (1950-1956), Till We Have Faces (1956), and The Great Divorce (1945), C.S Lewis demonstrates the philosophical approach which he devises in Mere Christianity (1952) concerning the sehnsucht for a God who is "farther back and higher up" (43).

techniques to diagnose structural damage occurred from Whiplash.
Newer research that uses newer imaging techniques, fMRI and PET
scans, have indicated that even low grade whiplash injuries can have
more severe and longer lasting effects on neurodegeneragtion than
