Harry Potter webquest + Thinking Activity


Harry Potter Webquest:





1) Feminist reading of Hermione's character in Harry Potter:



In this novel we find feminist idea through the character of Hermione Grange, she is main character of the novel. She is very strong character reflects as a independent and intellectual girl rather than other two characters Harry and Ron. She was good student and she capture thing very quickly. She belong to the Muggle Blood. So she got insulted so many time by Melfoy.

2) Discourse on the purity of Blood and Harry Potter:



The term Pure Blood refer to a family or individual without Muggle. The concept is generally associated with Salazar Slyhthrin. One of the four founder of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and wizardry. Whose aversion to teaching anybody of Muggle parentage eventually to breach with his  three fellow founders and his resignation from the school.

In this novel protagonist Harry Potter and Hermione Granger are Mud Blood. Ron Weasley is a pure blood. Draco Malfoy is also pure blood. Where as evil Voldemort is Mud Blood but craving for pure blood. J. K. Rowling subverts the entire narrative by making protagonist who are Mud Blood. And important thing is that they are equally or sometimes more powerful in magic than pure blood.

3) Children's literature and Harry Potter:



Harry Potter is children literature or fantasy book Harry Potter was lead main chatchara of the J. K. Rowling book. Harry Potter character is young or magical, super hero for children and like on the fantasy novel. Harry Potter series was real, fantasy magical literature. 

In children with optimistic narrative or sequence was darker to the magic and power of reality and a different world which is not possible into the real world also. So children like those things which related to power and magic or fantasy.

4) Theme of choice and chance:



In Harry Potter novel we find various themes like love death, choice and chance. That way in the Secret of Chamber we find theme of chance also and Harry Potter Deathly Hallows we find theme of chance. The theme of choice was concious on Rowling's part. 

Here's what she has to say on the matter and it is about choice. And chance runs throughout the Harry Potter series for example The Chamber of Secret, when Riddle/Voldemort tells Harry Potter that 'It was merely a lucky chance that saved you', that way we find the theme of choice and chance throughout series. And this theme is very important to understand this novel.

5) Moral and philosophical reading:

Harry Potter and Humanity: Choice, love and death analyzes how the Harry Potter novel bring to our awareness two fundamental parts of the human condition, the importance of our choice and the inevitability of our morality. Lord Voldemort in his ruthless search for immortality refuses to accept his own humanity refuses to accept his own humanity and with it, his morality, in fact he openly reject both. Klein argues that it this choice that makes possible both Voldemort irredeemable evil and his ultimate defeat.

By contrast, it is Harry's acceptance of his morality that allows him to love and to embrace his humanity. This recognition gives Harry the power to defeat Voldemort. More than that, it makes it possible for Harry to develop into a realized, virtuous about. In his acceptance of his morality ' the boy who lived ' is able more fully and wholly to live.
