Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets Jk Rowling

228 Words1 Pages
I think J.K. Rowling wrote Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets because she has a very vast imagination. When she got married she was abused by her husband. When she felt sad she invented spells or potions she would use against him if she were a witch. Later, when she obtained a divorce, she brought Harry Potter to life. I think that she got the characters from people around her. She choose the name Harry because that is her favorite boy's name. Because Hermione is a Shakespearean name, she choose to name her that. She also used Latin and Greek names. Hagrid means that you had a bad night, the name itself is described by Rowling as a dialect word. I think the author is trying to share a magical, powerful, and fun message. Magical

Cassidy McIntyre William Van Wyck World History 9H 20 March, 2018 Judaism Project Script Rough Draft Hi everyone, as you all may know, my name is Cassidy McIntyre and today I will be talking about anti - semitism against Jews and how this affected the Jewish culture and the future of Europe. Judaism was originally founded in 3500 BC in the Middle East by a man named Abraham. Abraham grew up in a family that idolized more than one god. According to Jewish texts “Abram rejected his father’s religion from an early age and argued that the universe was the work of a single creator” (Pentateuch). Abraham was the first person to teach about the concept of there being a “one and only God”.

Rowling also addresses parent readers with the risks of heavily instilling certain views on their children. She demonstrates this by creating Draco Malfoy, a typical schoolyard bully based on the bullies she had dealt with during her own childhood. His character gives everyone else a hard time with his elitist, racist and spoilt manner, and holds qualities that can be seen in many children, such as pettiness and jealously. As adults we recognise, through Draco’s constant habit of reiterating his father’s words and general opinions of the world, that this rather spiteful boy himself is a product of circumstance, and as a result it had cost him the social ability to make genuine friends and distorted his views of the world before making discoveries

The creativity of the author and imagination of the reader made this book humorous, exciting, serious, and exhilarating all at the same time. In fantasy novels, “magic is the matter of myths and folktales, the problem becomes exciting rather than painful or intractable and the imagination is available to come to grips with the problem” (Sheahan-Bright, 2015, p. 4). This allows readers to enjoy the storyline rather than focus on the negativity that could arise. Pathos: Appeal for the Audience

He believed that archetypes are people’s behaviors and personalities and proposed the theory of personal unconscious and collective unconscious. Personal unconscious are memories that are suppressed and it’s from past experience and collective unconscious is the unconscious mind share by all humankind and it’s inherited.

For decades Harry Potter has entranced children and adults alike creating a magical sense of adventure and imagination. “Aside from these and other slight deviations, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (known as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the United States), is remarkably faithful to its source text,”(Joffe). There are many different opinions for people who like the book better and people who like the movie better. I believe the book was higher quality based on facts presented the book was more in depth with characters and emotions also more detail based on the plot was given and wasn’t so rushed, the thing that was creative about the movie and not the book was some little details to make a better character choice. So as a result the book has more of a creative base than the movie.
