“We could be killed, or worse, expelled” Hermione Granger, student in the Harry Potter series. The character she portrays is a young witch who attends Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Hogwarts is a school that accepts only witches and wizards, and teaches them to cast spells. These skills will prepare them for life in the wizarding world. Recently, strange things have been happening at Hogwarts ever since Harry Potter came. So, Harry and his friends take it upon themselves to save Hogwarts. Hermione is one of his friends, and she is a very complex character. She is very brave because she fights for what she believes in. In addition, her cleverness is inspirational as she is extremely good at spells and has a great work ethic. Furthermore, her loyalty is demonstrated beautifully throughout the Harry Potter series. These are the reasons why her character means so much to me.
Her first major quality is bravery. She has shown much bravery in the books. The most memorable ones would be (firstly) when she and her friends faced a troll that attempted to kill them before they suc...

  • To Kill A Mockingbird Character Analysis

    827 Words  | 2 Pages

    The author George Elliot once said “don’t judge a book by its cover.” Appearance can be very misleading, and you shouldn't prejudge the worth or value of something by its outward appearance alone. This philosophical idea has been included in many works of literature, including the timeless classic To Kill a Mockingbird written by Harper Lee. The novel takes place in the town of Maycomb, Alabama during the 1930s. Many citizens of Maycomb tend to make judgements based on outward appearances alone. In the novel, Lee uses minor characters such as Boo Radley, Mrs. Dubose, and Tom Robinson to convey the book’s theme of prejudice.

  • Compare And Contrast Hermoine And Katniss Everdeen

    848 Words  | 2 Pages

    Originally from England, Hermoine attends school at “Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry”,which is located in the secluded highlands of Scotland. Her story takes place around the 1980s to the 1990s. Hermoine had a passion for school, studying, and was an avid reader. She was incredibly intelligent, but known as a bit bossy and nerdy. That is why during her first year at Hogwarts it was hard for Hermoine to make friends, even her future husband Ron at the time stated that she was a nightmare and it was “no wonder she had no friends.” Eventually, Hermoine is befriended by Harry Potter and Ronald Weasley and grows more comfortable with making friends throughout the series just as Katniss does in hers. Being known as a “mudblood”,or a witch with no magical parents, Hermoine was bullied, discriminated, and even burned despite her intelligence. Katniss was perhaps discriminated against, however, it was most likely because she lived in poverty, not because of who her parents were. Despite what others think of her, Hermoine is certainly not afraid to state her opinion nor afraid to stand up to others. She punches her classmate Draco Malfoy for being responsible for the execution of a lovely creature, and talks back when Ron’s temporary girlfriend tries to belittle her. Katniss is also not afraid to defend herself against the powerful President Snow or her mother

    By writing the happy ending of Persuasion at the hands of the Crofts, Austen suggests that the Crofts were aware of Anne and Wentworth’s previous relationship throughout the novel, and all the while were exploring the possibility of a rekindling of the relationship through their hints and indirect comments.

This is proved when Katniss wins the Hunger Games after she is told that she should try to win, by Prim, her sister and throughout the games she remembers these words and kind of uses them as her guide.
