Generations Of The Harry Potter Fandom : New And Old

It is a well-known fact that ageing is an inevitable process in the course of the human lifespan and that it is being perceived differently across diverse cultures in different eras. Many social actions and responsibilities come with certain age milestones but they all vary in different cultures and what is seemingly normal in one culture regarding age might be considered absurd in another. This essay will explore how different these ideas about age are and what cross cultural examples can tell us about age.

The Harry Potter Series is a series of books that I think should have been required to read in High School. This should have been a required reading due to the fact it is a thrilling adventure that allows one to dream of an imaginary place where learning is not only happening, but fun. The teachers enjoy their jobs, for the most part Snape just wants the Dark Arts position, and it shows as they push their students forward in studies and make them into the best possible human beings to go out and make a difference in the

Did you know that the Harry Potter series has been translated into 68 different languages and has sold over 400 million copies worldwide? Harry Potter has inspired a new generation of readers. Harry Potter is banned in so many schools, but it still has changed our culture.

As students, freshmen come into high school knowing that they are hated by every upperclassmen in the school, with the exception of some friends and possibly family. The freshmen don’t understand why they are disliked, and most of the upperclassmen can’t tell you why they despise the freshmen, except for some unproved responses such as: “They’re annoying”, or “They’re so immature”. This sequence occurs every year. As the freshmen turn into upperclassmen, they too develop a hate for the incoming freshmen. This relationship is common on a larger scale as well; older generations view the younger generations as annoying, dumb, and immature. Dealing with three generations today, we have the omniscient Baby Boomers (1946-1964), impious

It is believed by many that younger generations, those under the age of thirty are the “dumbest”. Apparently, technology has now influenced and molded people into less-intelligent individuals who lack the knowledge and skills that people of the same age once acquired. Though if we look at more aspects of their learning capabilities, millennials do have the potential to be bright beings, now seen through more creative, non-traditional ways. And because of this, younger generations cannot be undermined as they have high levels of cognitive abilities, the help from technology, and how technology makes them write more and be more involved with their interests. Younger generations are not limited in their cognitive abilities, rather these abilities are expanding as time progresses.

It helped rekindle the world’s love for reading and encourage many to pursue writing. J.K. Rowling is a role model for young women, she gained recognition from her intelligence and creativity instead of physical features. She encourages women to pursue their dreams through their hardships,have determination, to express imagination, overcome failures and to excel in areas where sexist opinions are still held. This is demonstrated in her quote “Rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life”. She also promotes generosity and humility through her donations to many charities and auctions.

J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series has become one of the most popular children’s series in the world over the past decade. Through these books children and young adults alike have delved into a fantastical world in which they explored the problems that their protagonist, Harry Potter, has faced. In Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, the sixth book of the Harry Potter series, Harry dealt with the challenge of proving to his peers and professors that Draco Malfoy and Severus Snape were no longer trustworthy. Even so, Harry failed to realize that the author of the notes in his Advanced Potion-Making book was corrupt. In this book, J.K. Rowling uses point of view, style, and irony to demonstrate the need for people to be more analytical

The release of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has ignited a flame that Potter fans can’t seem to extinguish. The success of Cursed Child, both in forms of a play and released on shelves, has started rumors that production studio Warner. Bros., whom produced the original Harry Potter franchise, is hoping to add onto the films. In an article written by Carly Ledbetter for Huffington Post, a source claims that the studio is “interested in a movie version of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.” The source claims also Warner Bros. is working on getting the screenplay rights, while keeping in mind the only one who should portray Harry.

Most people have a learning style that mirrors how they were taught when they were younger. It should be noted that there is not a one size fits all method when it comes to learning. The key to being able to appeal to each of the different generations is to offer diversity in teaching styles in order to satisfy the different preferences. As of now, there are four generations that are in the workforce and those four generations are: The Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and the Millennials. This paper will examine the characteristics of these four generations, how their learning styles differ, and what to

I full heartedly believe that fictional stories about characters and events can teach us about ourselves and the world around us. The Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling has taught me not only about spells and magic, but more importantly about love, loyalty, courage, self-confidence, and friendship.
