  • Elizabeth Gagne' Mentor
    Gagne’ 1 Elizabeth Gagne’ Mentor: Dr. Laura Hakala Grad Research Symposium Malfoy, Draco Malfoy: Exploring Toxic Masculinity in Harry Potter When people think about Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, or any book in the series by J. K. Rowling, they typically think of Harry Potter and his friends, Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley. Rarely do they think about Draco Malfoy. Considering the #MeToo movement and the exposure of toxic masculinity, characters like Malfoy become pivotal in understanding how we identify masculinity in adolescents. Especially since most of the conversations taking place about Harry Potter, mainly focuses on Harry himself and those he is in close connection with. This encompasses scholarship as well, where the primary focus is on Harry. Draco Malfoy plays a prominent role in some of the keys points and scenes within multiple Harry Potter books, and therefore his character and actions are important. Annette Wannamaker believes that “in more than a few contemporary texts written for boys, masculinity is—not always but quite often—portrayed in complicated, contradictory, often paradoxical ways that highlight the difficult negotiations that boys are making as they develop gendered identities within, against, or on the margins of current cultural constructions of masculinity” (Boys in Children’s Lit 10). Draco Malfoy is a character that develops his masculinity through the influence of what it means to be a pureblood wizard, which stems from the teaching and impact his parents and society have on him. There is also influence from his peers and what it means to be a Slytherin, a Hogwarts house that is known for unsavory characters.

  • Many Faces of Albus Dumbledore in the Setting of Fan Writing
    MANY FACES OF ALBUS DUMBLEDORE IN THE SETTING OF FAN WRITING: THE TRANSFORMATION OF READERS INTO “READER-WRITERS” AND THE IMPLICATIONS OF THEIR PRESENCE IN THE AGE OF ONLINE FANDOM by Midori Fujita A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Children’s Literature) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2014 © Midori Fujita, 2014 ii Abstract This thesis examines the dynamic and changing nature of reader response in the time of online fandom by examining fan reception of, and response to, the character Dumbledore in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series. Using the framework of reader reception theory established by Wolfgang Iser, in particular Iser’s conception of textual indeterminacies, to construct my critical framework, this work examines Professor Albus Dumbledore as a case study in order to illuminate and explore how both the text and readers may contribute to the identity formation of a single character. The research examines twenty-one selected Internet-based works of fan writing. These writings are both analytical and imaginative, and compose a selection that illuminates what aspect of Dumbledore’s characters inspired readers’ critical reflection and inspired their creative re-construction of the original story. This thesis further examines what the flourishing presence of Harry Potter fan community tells us about the role technological progress has played and is playing in reshaping the dynamics of reader response. Additionally, this research explores the blurring boundaries between authors and readers in light of the blooming culture of fan fiction writing.

  • Wizarding Hierarchy
    English University of Iceland School of Humanities English Wizarding Hierarchy A Portrayal of Discrimination and Prejudice in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter novels B.A. Thesis Sigríður Eva Þorsteinsdóttir Kt.: 020696-3549 Supervisor: Valgerður Guðrún Bjarkadóttir May 2018 Abstract This paper explores how the Harry Potter novels by J.K. Rowling touches on the subject of discrimination and general prejudice against minority groups throughout the history of mankind. Though there are many minority groups in the novels, only a few will be discussed. Each of them will be compared to minority groups that faces prejudice in the real world. The paper further examines the effect discrimination has on the wizarding world and the struggle that wizards have to face to break from old habits, such as the enslavement of house-elves and their ongoing quarrels with goblins and other non-human creatures. The history of these feuds will be discussed as well as possible ways of mending the relationship between wizards and the minority groups. Oppression and abuse towards these minority groups are parts of the daily life of wizards and has been for centuries. Likewise, there will a focus on the prejudice werewolves face and how they mirror HIV infected people. In order to compare werewolves and people with HIV, a series of articles and studies on attitude towards diseases such as HIV/AIDS will be analyzed. The paper will also include a discussion about a few characters from the series that in some way are connected to minority groups: Hermione Granger, Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Dolores Umbridge, Lord Voldemort, Dobby the house- elf, and lastly the werewolf Remus Lupin.

  • Magical Minority
    Hugvísindasvið Magical Minority Social Class and Discrimination in the Harry Potter Novels Ritgerð til B.A.-prófs Anna Guðjónsdóttir Maí 2014 Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Enska Magical Minority Social Class and Discrimination in the Harry Potter Novels Ritgerð til B.A.-prófs Anna Guðjónsdóttir Kt.: 210190-2609 Leiðbeinandi: Anna Heiða Pálsdóttir Maí 2014 Abstract This essay explores the separation of people into different social classes in the Harry Potter novels and does as well give focus on the treatment of minority groups in the story. Dividing wizards and witches into upper, middle and lower class controls the wizard society and where the power lies. Those that form the upper class come from a long line of wizards and witches that are referred to as purebloods while those that form the lower class have parents who are Muggles, that is, possess no magical power. The essay explores the negative treatment of non-human beings and others that fall out of the norm in the wizard community and are placed as simple workers or even slaves since they are seen as inferior to wizards and witches. Authority and the upper class are portrayed in a very negative way since their sole interest seems to be on protecting their power and eliminating those that they deem unworthy of possessing magical power. The essay gives examples of characters that fall out of the norm and how they have accepted their place outside of the society. By applying Marxist theory focus is given on the class structure and shows how the upper class creates the superstructure while the lower class, formed by Muggleborn wizards and witches as well as the non-human beings, form the base of the society.
