  • Co-Creating Harry Potter: Children’S Fan-Play, Folklore and Participatory Culture
    CO-CREATING HARRY POTTER: CHILDREN’S FAN-PLAY, FOLKLORE AND PARTICIPATORY CULTURE by © Contessa Small A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Folklore Memorial University of Newfoundland April 2015 St. John’s Newfoundland Abstract A number of scholars have argued that children’s traditional artifacts and play are being replaced by media culture objects and manipulated by corporations. However, while companies target and exploit children, it is problematic to see all contemporary youth or “kid” culture as simply a product of corporate interests. This thesis therefore explores children’s multivocal fan-play traditions, which are not only based on corporation interests, but also shaped by parents, educators and children themselves. The Harry Potter phenomenon, as a contested site where youth struggle for visibility and power, serves as the case study for this thesis. Through the examination of an intensely commercialized form of children’s popular culture, this thesis explores the intricate web of commercial, hegemonic, folk, popular and vernacular cultural expressions found in children’s culture. This thesis fits with the concerns of participatory literacy which describes the multiple ways readers take ownership of reading and writing to construct meaning within their own lives. Due to the intense corporate and adult interests in Pottermania, children have continually been treated in the scholarly literature as passive receptors

  • Diagon Alley: Being a Stranger
    Harry Potter and the Sacred Text 1.05- Diagon Alley: Being a Stranger Casper: Hi, this is Casper. We recorded this episode before the attacks in Orlando, and wanted to offer our thoughts and love in response to the tragedy. A lot of people will turn to prayer or to their religious communities in such times of despair. We know that, for a whole ton of our listeners, that’s not really an option. What we wanted to suggest was, if there are times of sadness and loss of hope and courage, that this can be a kind of prayer, that turning to this text, and delving into it with attention and love, is a kind of prayer. So we found this one little passage that, for us, really speaks volumes in this time of mourning and of anger, that we hope will speak to you also. Vanessa: This offering is from The Goblet of Fire. It is the speech that Dumbledore makes when ​ ​ Cedric Diggory dies at the hands of Lord Voldemort. And every time I say the name ‘Cedric Diggory,’ I will be thinking of the forty-nine victims in Orlando, and of their families. “It is my belief, and never have I so hoped that I am mistaken, that we are all facing dark and difficult times. Some of you in this hall have already suffered directly. Many of your families have already been torn asunder. A week ago a student, Cedric Diggory, was taken from our midst. Remember Cedric. Remember if the time comes when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good and who was kind and brave, because he strayed across the path of violence.

I had always been enthralled about stories regarding fantastical worlds, and Rowling’s stories are so remarkably thought-out, that the Latin-based Incantations to even minor character’s name contain a deeper subliminal meaning. That is, until we look at Harry’s first love interest, Cho Chang. It appears that many readers are absolutely perplexed about Cho Chang’s ethnicity. Her name indicates an Asian ethnic origin, but this distinction stops there. There are partial interpretations of her name within Japanese and Chinese languages, however, the full name does not make complete sense in either language.
