Enter into an extraordinary world filled with spells, potions, mystical creatures, flying brooms, and many adventures! The world of Harry Potter certainly is an adventure to people of all ages containing a plot like no other novel that has ever been published. However, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone should not be published based on its plot alone. This book should be published based on its characters that tweens and teens can directly relate to and adults can remember relating to. Throughout the story, Harry, Hermione, and Ron experience the insecurities of adolescence as they search for acceptance through their time at Hogwarts. They are the three essential main characters in this book who are on this journey and without them, Hogwarts …show more content…
Harry, Ron, and Hermione are certainly no exception to this as the one thing that they all have in common is the desire to be accepted. For the majority of Harry’s life he lives with his aunt, uncle, and cousin Dudley. The Dursley’s are not accepting of Harry to say the least as they constantly taunt and abuse Harry throughout the book as “they are insensitive to his grief, actively degrade his parents’ memory, keep Harry in relative social isolation in the cupboard under the stairs, and do not encourage him to have friends” (Hook 93). Harry feels accepted for the first time in his life the night that Hagrid visits him to tell him that he is a wizard and has been accepted into Hogwarts School of Wizardry. Harry is ecstatic at first but quickly becomes immersed in anxiety as he realizes that he already has a great reputation as “the boy who lived” to live up to all while he has not grown up in a wizarding family and knows nothing about the wizarding world. Harry feels like a bit of a fraud going into Hogwarts and he is just hoping to be accepted by his peers. Even though the journey was not easy, Harry earns Gryffindor the last sixty points for the House Cup “for pure nerve and outstanding courage” (Rowling
Imagine discovering that you’re not an ordinary person, but a wizard with magnificent, magical powers. Imagine attending a school where you’ll study transfiguration and charms instead of trigonometry and chem. Imagine the thrill of flying across the sky on a broomstick. These adventures and many others are waiting to be experienced in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone by novelist J. K. Rowling. This fanciful and entertaining tale has taken the youth of the nation by storm, and its sales have only been surpassed by the book’s sequels, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

Harry Potter is not a normal boy. He lives with his aunt and uncle and his cousin because his parents were murdered by the most powerful dark lord, Lord Voldemort. He attends a school for wizards called Hogwarts and learns about spells, potions, the dark arts, and etc. Non-magic people are called Muggles and the Muggles are completely oblivious to this world.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Harry Potter is now twelve years old and still staying with his Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon. He is located at number four Privet Drive. He is about to take on another amazing year at his school, Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. He can't help but that who he is affects the relationship with his legal guardians who are Muggles (nothing to do with magic at all). Harry is a talented kid in one's eye and a troubled kid in another eye.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a book about a boy named Harry Potter who is a wizard. Its setting is in London, which is where Harry lives. The time element is supposed to be present day, but it is a fiction book.
Two of the best things in the world, “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” and “Harry Potter,” have a good deal in common. Other than the vast amount of space reserved in my brain for storing quotes and random facts from these two stories, both tales share many similar objects, plot devices, character attributes, and themes. Even though Python's “Holy Grail” is an exact historical representation of the Arthurian Grail legend, some might argue that the “Harry Potter” story is more reflective of the actual ancient texts than the 1974 film.
Just to quickly run through the two previous books; Harry Potter is a wizard, who’s parents were killed by the worst dark wizard ever known. The reason why Harry Potter is still around, is because Lord Voldemort failed to kill Harry. His spell hit Harry, but then backfired on Voldemort taking all of his powers with him. Harry is so famous for two things. Withstanding the powers of Lord Voldemort, and, taking him back in to the underworld in hiding. In the first book, Harry receives a letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He’s eventually allowed to go, and spends the next six months there learning magic, getting into trouble, and trying to solve mysteries of his past, and the school. In the second book, Harry goes back to his second year at Hogwarts, and gets into more trouble, figures out many astonishing mysteries and learns loads more magic. His best friends in the two books consist of Ron and Hermione (two of his fellow wizard students) and Hagrid the gamekeeper who was expelled from Hogwarts but allowed a job as the gamekeeper.
This literary analysis will define the importance of self-realization in the fantasy world of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone by J.K. Rowling. Rowling’s fantasy world presents the challenges of a young boy, Harry Potter, that is trapped between the “real world” and the fantasy world of Hogwart’s School. Harry’s transport into the world of Hogwart’s provides him with the potential for self-realization that will fulfill his true identity as a wizard. Hogwarts School is, in fact, a fantasy location, but the overriding realism of his identity as a wizard teaches him about the importance
‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire’, written by J.K. Rowling, is an excellent example of a modern novel that uses medieval influences extensively. Many of the novel’s characters are based on medieval ideas and superstitions. The settings in the book resemble old medieval towns as well as castles. The book is also full of medieval imagery such as knights in armour, carriages etc. Whilst there is no time travel involved in the novel, the medieval period is used to such an effect that the reader is encouraged to ignore the fact that the book is set in the present.
