The Psychology Of Harry Potter By Neil Mulholland Ph. D.

Harry Potter was a very famous series of fictional books and movies by J.K. Rowling. Harry is the main protagonist, who goes to a large, seven-story high castle supported by magic called Hogwarts. Through all the adventures of Harry’s life described in the books, I see it as a very intriguing topic to talk about. Diction, language, and imagery are going to be talked about for the fictional character chosen, also followed by answered questions to give a better idea, through details, of how Harry Potter really is seen.

Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling is a magical story about a boy who set on a heroic journey to save his home. Along the way he shows great heroism, courage, and natural intelligence as he navigates his way through Hogwarts and it’s mystery’s. Harry Potter’s story left a mark in every audience member's heart and a permanent fondness for the magical story in their minds.

It is clear that the Harry Potter series has taken a journey on the Hogwarts Express to the road of international success. The “Harry Potter” series is the story of the eponymous boy, orphaned at birth and left in the care of the aunt and uncle along with the ill mannered son who make up the Dursley family who are known as “Muggles” (non-magical people). On Harry's eleventh birthday, Harry receives a letter from Hogwarts, a school that grooms young wizards and witches, and promptly enters a world of wonder and mystery. At Hogwarts, he meets his two closest friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger who begin there adventure together through love, friendship and learning about magic. Harry learns very soon that the death of his parents was no

Harry Potter is a fascinating tale of sorcerers, wands, broomsticks, dragons, and magic. The story begins with a young boy named Harry Potter who lives at number four Privit Drive, Surray, England. His journey begins after the death of his parents at the hands of the evil Lord Voldemort. Harry learns of his past and his future as a wizard from Hagrid, the keeper of keys and grounds at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He travels to Hogwarts where he learns spells and enchantments, makes new friends, finds enemies, and discovers fantastic secretes. J.K. Rowling weaves a web of impeccable storytelling with this critically acclaimed novel. In the tale of Harry Potter imagery, symbolism, and motif take central focus.

All this has added to the growing popularity of the Harry Potter brand that is everywhere today. Young readers can relate to Harry’s issues and the books create another world the readers can subconsciously ‘escape’ too.

The Harry Potter series is the best book series ever. On top you see wizards, wand, and other cool magical things every human wants to be able to do. But deep down Harry Potter is full of literary elements including an epic quest for the three main characters, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, and Harry Potter. Harry Potter’s overall quest throughout the books is to track down the evil wizard, Voldemort. He must also learn about why he is so famous. His best friend, Ron Weasley, is poor boy with 7 siblings. Ron’s quest is to become more brave and be the leader. Hermione Granger, Harry’s other best friends, her quest is all about knowledge and to do what’s right.

     Harry Potter is a twelve-year-old boy whose parents were killed by Voldemort. Harry has a scar shaped like a lighting bolt on his forehead. He has black hair, like his father, and green eyes, like his mother. Ron Weasley is a red haired, freckled faced boy. Ron is Harry’s best friend. He is very poor and has five older brothers and a younger sister. Hermione Granger is Harry and Ron’s other friend. She has muggle parents. She has bushy brown hair. She is

Even though the modern society hangs mostly in the balances of commerce, money, power, and the combined strength of technology and science, there are still great numbers of people who turn to tales of magic and wonder as an escape from the mundane existence in which their lives are led. In the late nineties, a young boy wizard by the name of Harry James Potter was first read about and proved to be a major catalyst in getting the world reading again, and getting the world to fall in love with something together; these two statements prove the power of the imagination has and still has a powerful influence on the world today and will continue to do so for a great amount of

Undoubtedly one of the most popular stories of the 21st century was Harry Potter, a series in which readers follow the life of a twelve year old boy who learns that he is magical. Throughout the novels aspects of magic are blended into the real world, portrayed by the setting Great Britain, which contains a large proportion of non-magical people, referred to as muggles. The way the author, J.K Rowling, set the book up and blended these two aspects, magic and realism, is analogous to the way John Irving wrote a Prayer for Owen Meany through the genre of magical realism. Furthermore, the use of this genre allowed for the development of John Irving’s main message. By setting the story in the realistic town of Gravesend, New Hampshire, and incorporating the exceptional religious character of Owen Meany, the author sets the scene to impart his thoughts upon readers. John Irving’s main message in a Prayer for Owen Meany is that not all people view the world using science and logical reason.

Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, and Katniss Everdeen have become familiar household names as of late with the fantastic stories intertwining adventure and dystopian societies. Conjuring a world in which these characters cease to exist in their respective books would be a task many would be unwilling to undertake. Hesitancy in any prospective removal of these characters exists for the simple reason that they are the protagonists: those who are oftentimes the focal point from which the story spins itself from. Identifying these characters, their physical and mental traits, motivations, and relations with other figures of the book. Today, all of this and more will be found with my in-depth review of The Testing by Joelle Charbonneau.

` Read Around The Genre: Wizards and Witches Rowling, J.k, Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets -Fiction Whooo! I just finished my first book for Read Around The Genre! That's how I felt this whole entire time writing this summary. O.K., let's get into this summary. Harry Potter and The Chamber Of Secrets is had a lot of things happening and some reveals.

As readers dive into the fictional world of Harry Potter, they are introduced into a completely new world. They see the life of wizards and witches all in the modern world. As grand and glorious as the new world is described, we tend to forget the world is in the perception of a child. With this point of view, we get to see the developments of young Harry Potter through all seven books. As Harry strives to survive in the wizarding world, readers witness his struggles in the concepts of good and evil and with questions of justice, law and morality.

Harry Potter is an amazing book and movie series that has many great examples of literary archetypes. At the end of the series, Harry finally defeats Voldemort, ending his terror on the magical world. Nineteen years after the battle that ended it all, Harry now works in the Ministry for Magic along with his best friends, Ron and Hermione (who is now the Minister for Magic, or Prime Minister in our world). They all have children who now attend Hogwarts, starting their own journey. Who knows where their journey will take

A major character in the book is of course, Harry Potter. A fourteen-year old protagonist with prominent principles to guide him and developing maturity. The boy inherited his father’s (James Potter) “perpetually untidy black hair, his mother’s (Lily Potter) green eyes, a lightning bolt-shaped scar on his forehead, round eyeglasses, and small & skinny for his age.” (Rowling) Harry attends Hogwarts with Hermione Granger along with Ron Weasley, both are best-friends of him.

Using imagination and creativity, J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series has defined literature as transformative. In this seven-book series J.K Rowling imagined and creatively pieced together a fantasy world of muggles, wizards, tyrants, and heroes to symbolically share with readers problems plaguing modern society. Similar to Shelley’s work of the past, never before have readers in the modern era seen teenage and adult mania surrounding an 11-year-old wizard. Some will argue that J.K. Rowling’s young-adult series lacks depth or wants to twist young minds by using magic and evil, but through close examination it is evident that
