Interviewer: Greetings Harry Potter. I am an interviewer for ‘The Daily Prophet’ and I am intending to make this interview, the biggest news in the wizarding world! During this session, l would like to ask you questions about your adventure to defeat Voldemort. When you first started out in Hogwarts, you knew that you were the one to defeat Voldemort, but seeing the mission that Dumbledore left for you, what did you think of embarking on that treacherous journey?

A hero can be defined as someone who places themself at great risk, while performing acts of courage. This definition can be related in the epic poem, Beowulf, and the novel, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer 's Stone. In each story, both leading characters are born destined to defeat the most evil creature in their world. Beowulf is the oldest surviving epic poem in the world. “Beowulf” was written in 1000 AD, in Old English form. In this poem the main character, Beowulf, challenges an evil monster, Grendel and a dragon, to a battle to save Denmark. 1,300 years later, in 1997, the novel Harry Potter and the Sorcerer 's Stone was published. Written by JK Rowling, Harry Potter became an instant success and was read by millions of people all over the world. In this novel, the main character, Harry Potter, is sent to Hogwarts Witchcraft and Wizardry. At Hogwarts, Harry realizes that it is his destiny to kill Lord Voldemort, the most evil creature in the wizard world. Even through culture change, Harry Potter and Beowulf can be compared. They can be compared because both heroes are destined to fight evil, lead a group of people, and save the innocent lives of others.

“How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand...there is no going back. There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold.” In The Lord of The Rings, Frodo’s journey is one of persistent sorrows. His mind is conflicted between his will to do the right thing and the Ring’s seductive call. Towards the end of his journey, his will breaks and he gives in to the Ring’s power. While he ends up succeeding on his quest, it is a pyrrhic victory. He returns home a shell of a person. The things he used to love he now scorns. The places where he found rest are now alien to him. In the aftermath of trauma, he no longer knows where

The interaction of fate and free will in the primary world is a very complex, intertwined phenomenon. However, in Tolkien’s works The Silmarillion, The Hobbit, and The Lord of the Rings, there is a recognizable pattern that is set. More specifically this pattern regarding fate is established cosmologically through his story of creation (the “Ainulindale”), and the precedent is set for how individual choice affects the events that follow. This pattern will be used to establish how Tolkien views the effect of determination on determinism throughout his other works.

Born in Belfast on November 29, 1898, Clives Staples Lewis was a British author best known for The Chronicles of Narnia series and the book of Mere Christianity, although he has written more than 40 books. In 1916, C.S Lewis was drafted into the army to serve in war, an experience that turned him into an atheist. In 1929, Lewis converted from atheism to theism and in September of 1931, after talking to his close friend, J.R.R Tolkien, Lewis became a Christian. C.S. Lewis started to write about Christianity and on October 16, 1950, he published the first book novel in the Chronicles of Narnia series, The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe.

As a professional reviewer, Mike Furches reviews Harry Potter in his blog, “Reviews with Mike Furches: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1” on blogspot.com. Mike’s concern for the dark, scary aspects of the Harry Potter books led him to research the subject more thoroughly, hoping to point out the reasons children should not be reading them. Because of the social, political, and cultural aspects of this work, he felt it was important to inform readers and parents of this questionable side of Harry Potter.

In J.R.R. Tolkien’s world renowned novel, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, what can be inferred almost right from looking at the novel is that it’s mainly about rings or a single ring. This ring was said to have been owned by an extremely evil lord, Sauron, who wishes to use the ring’s immense power to enslave and control all of the land and people. The ring finds its way into the hands of a Hobbit who goes by Frodo Baggins, and the story basically unfolds from there. Tolkien mainly tries to express themes such as the controlling influence of power as well as the strength between friendships and bonds through the uses of setting and tone. The setting greatly influences the novel and the characters in many ways with loads of

Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy, four siblings in World War II-era England, are sent away from London to live in the countryside, where they will be safe from air raids and bombings. While they are staying in a large, historic country house owned by an old professor, Lucy discovers that a certain wardrobe in a spare room is a gateway to a magical land called Narnia.

Lucy returns home and tells her brothers and sister about her experience, but they don't believe her because

Once upon a time, before more mainstream genre-defining fantasy works such as The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, before there even existed an actual fantasy genre at all, Lord Dunsany masterfully crafted the fantastical The King of Elfland’s Daughter, an opulent tapestry of a tale of what could happen in a typical fairy tale following the “happily ever after.” Writing in the early years of the twentieth century, Lord Dunsany was a pioneer in the fantasy genre. He very much belonged to an earlier, perhaps more enlightened age, when fantasy writers were known for the beauty of their prose as much as the fantastical nature of their stories. In her essay “From Elfland to Poughkeepsie,” Ursula K. Le Guin, author and fanatic of fantasy

In the 1940s to 1950s, World War II, and the Cold War took place and the consequences of warfare lingered well into the second half of twenty century. During that time period with conflicts and sorrows, J.R.R. Tolkien was creating an entire fictional world with its mythopoeic stories, and he showed it to the people. In Tolkien’s early life, he fought Germans in World War I and both of his parents died when he was relatively young. Later on, J.R.R Tolkien became one of the most famous and influential fantasy fiction writer in the twentieth century. He was also widely known as the creator of Middle-Earth with its entire history where the famous fantasy fictions, The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, take place. However, before J.R.R. Tolkien

Darkness extended over all of Middle-Earth like a veil during the time of war. New laws were enforced and the citizens’ freedom was taken away. Frodo’s magic ring represents the unsustainability of the environment, and the characters of Middle-Earth. In The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien uses the magic ring to reflect the politics of sustainability, by drawing from his own life experiences. Two philosophers, Scruton and Hart write their recipes for sustainability. Scruton believes that finding the right balance between beauty and piety can result in a love of place and sustainability. Hart writes about anarcho-monarchism and states that finding the balance between anarchy, monarchism, and dictatorship, can lead to a sustainable culture. In

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is an excellent movie that is well crafted. The concert I attended at the Hollywood Bowl was dedicated to this movie and they did a magnificent job of replacing any music in the movie with a live orchestra! The Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra performed at this concert and the conductor was Gustavo Dudamel. This concert was performed by having the movie played on a jumbo screen with the musical recording removed. While the movie was being played the orchestra would perform at the correct time. Their perfect timing impressed me the most because the margin for error was so small in terms of each instrument playing at the correct time. The environment was perfect because it was outdoors and the sound was

My reading experiences have always been enjoyable. I love to read when I find an interesting book. It’s easy for me to be sucked into a book if the story catches my eye. I mostly like to read teen romance novels. They appeal to me simply because of my interest in a love story. My parents hate buying me books because they know I’ll be finished reading within a week or so. Reading has always been really easy to me. It seems almost natural to be sucked into other worlds. The words start to flow over the pages and suddenly it feels like I’m not even reading anymore. Unless I have to read a book for school or it doesn’t catch my attention, I might have a hard time bringing myself to read it.
