Is The Copper Gauntlet similar to J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter books? Holly Black and Cassandra Clare are creators of the book The Copper Gauntlet, the second book in the Magisterium book series. The book is about a teenage boy, Callum Hunt, going back to the Magisterium, a school for kids who have powers. Being familiar with both book series, the reader will find three major similarities between both works.
In Harry Potter, Harry has two friends that help him do various tasks throughout the book series. One is a female, Hermione Granger, and the other is male, Ron Weasley. Similarly, The Copper Gauntlet’s main character, Callum Hunt, has two friends, Tamara and Aaron. “He thought about telling her that Aaron and Tamara were his best friends.”
The majority of The Crucible book and movie is very similar. Some of these similarities include, when Abigail and the other girls are in court and they accuse Mary of being with the devil, they yell ‘yellow bird’, also the book and movie showed Reverend Parris’s greed for houses and money. There weren't many differences that one could spot when watching the movie. I would have to say it was one of the most similar movies i've ever seen.
There are few similarities between the book and the movie. Usually most movies are similar to
The thrilling book The Summer of the Monkeys by Wilson Rawls and the movie by Walt Disney are alike in some ways but drastically different in other ways. There were different characters, endings and beginnings, and even different plot organization.
In both books they share some traits, even though they may not look anything alike they are. both of these novels are dystopian novels and many characters share similarity’s.
In both books, these two gangs decide to have a rumble, a fight with all the members of the two gangs. This is one similarity between these books.
Friendship is an unbreakable bond between two people and contains loyalty and love. In the story Chains, Isabel finds herself in grand friendships that play throughout the story. She showed how devoted she was towards Lady Lockton, Curzon, and Ruth by being there for them during tough times. In the end, friendship is the light through the darkness, powerful and important.
The similarities are prolific in their presence in certain parts of the novel, the very context of both stories shows similarities, both are dealing with an oppressed factor that is set free by an outsider who teaches and challenges the system in which the oppressed are caught.
The books Redwall by: Brian Jacques and the Harry Potter Series by: J.K. Rowling share many similar and different character traits, themes and symbols. Redwall takes place place during a medieval time in an abbey and the characters are woodland animals. The Harry Potter series takes place in modern day England primarily in school of magic where teenagers learn how to harness their magical powers and abilities. The two may not be similar in terms of plot, but Redwall and Harry Potter both share the themes and symbols of courage, compassion and evil.
“The buyers of slaves had arrived. The other women and I were striped naked. I bit my lip, determined not to cry. But I couldn’t stop myself from screaming out as her arms were wrenched behind my back and tied,” sorrowfully cried Amari. The character, Amari, from the book Copper Sun by Sharon M. Draper, is 15 years old and was taken away from her homeland along with some members of her African tribe. They are now being taken against their will to different parts of the world to become slaves. Amari meets a strong and independent women, Afi, who keeps Amaris hope strong and increases her will to stay alive.
The similarities are quite apparent, the movie plot mainly follows the basic plot that the book took, leaving the viewer’s with a sense of accomplishment, as this is sometimes not achieved in the highest degree. Scout still has a brother, Jem. They both still meet Dill and have a few adventures with him throughout the film. Jem and Scout still have a single father, Atticus, having lost their mother many years ago. Calpunia is still their cook. And the whole story still has an overpowering sense of focusing on two main stories, Boo Radley (Arthur Radley) and Tom Robinson’s trial.
there is no doubt that there are themes that allow one to create a comparison between the two books.
Though very similar, the movie gives the themes something more. The way they approach a situation and how they show the symbols seem to relate the message clearer. The book does the same but some parts may not be as specific and relatable as the movie. But, both contain the two most important symbols, the eyes of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg and Owl Eyes. Without these two symbols, both the book and the movie would be impacted for the worst and leave major themes out of the storyline.
adventure. Exploring the use of the bildungsroman motif, this book contains a mood of innocence and self-discovery as Harry starts out in his novel as a naïve victim. The root of his troubles lies in having to endure family problems, which results in a lack of identity. However, upon being introduced to a different world, Harry starts to break out of his shell. Throughout his journey, he not only meets and makes the distinction of good and evil, but he consciously makes a choice as to where he stands. He overcomes obstacles and dangers, meets temptation and desire, fights fear and defeat, and accomplishes a moral mission. In the end, Harry grows emotionally, mentally, and physically as throughout the course of his adventure, he begins to form his identity and embrace oncoming adulthood.
The basic ideas of the two novels are also similar. They have to do with rebellion against the so-called perfect new world and the sanctuary they find at the end. John the savage found peace by hanging himself. (It was hard to notice that, but I did. It made an excellent ending to the novel.)
The third similarity is the prince. In both the book and the film this handsome looking teenage boy is ready to marry as his birthday passes.
