  • Quidditch Rules and Regulations Purpose: Members of the Order Of
    Quidditch Rules and Regulations Purpose: Members of the Order of DeMolay should be challenged to work as a team and develop strategies to achieve goals while maintaining physical fitness and having lots of fun. Additionally, fun activities should be updated to be relevant with current times and trends among the youth. As such, Quidditch, a fictional team game based off of the Harry Potter book series, provides an example of the adaptation to newer generations’ interests and experiences. Providing a fun, intuitive, team building game, chapters will be able to provide exciting experiences which could draw new members and challenge current ones to work together, while building friendships and good sportsmanship expected in the Order of DeMolay. Overview: Quidditch begins with two teams of six or more competing head to head to outscore the other team in a twenty minute match. Participants play while riding brooms (pool noodles) during all parts of the match on the Pitch (field). Teams work together to score by throwing the Quaffle (volleyball or soccer ball) through one of three goals on the opposing side of the game field. To aid in defense, selected team members may throw Bludgers (dodgeballs) at opposing players in an attempt to make them drop any ball they may be carrying and cause them return to one of their goal posts before returning to the game. Near the end of the match, teams can also score additional points by having a seventh player attempt to capture the Snitch (a flag or tail attached to a non- team participant). Direct physical contact should be avoided and may result in a penalty play for the opposing team or ejection from the game.

  • Making the Muggle a Study of Processes of Othering in J.K
    Department of English Making the Muggle A Study of Processes of Othering in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and how Teachers Can Use the Novels to Work with Issues of Ableism Robin Aronsson Magister essay Literature HT16, 2016, ENG04GY Supervisor: Joakim Sigvardson 1 | o f 3 7 Abstract The magical fictional setting of the Harry Potter novels is not one separated from our own. It features the same nations and the same history as the real world. Its society is parallel to ours due to similar traditions and hierarchies, such as heteronormativity, ageism, racism, and fascism. Some of these are clearly problematised in the novels, others are not. While issues of racism and blood status are clearly at the forefront of the story of Harry Potter, there are layers to the conflict which reveal that there is more to the discriminatory dilemma than the issue of blood purity. This essay aims to investigate how teachers can use J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series to lead a discussion about othering and discrimination, focusing on the issue of ableism in particular. The goal when studying processes of othering in Harry Potter is not necessarily for the reader to identify with the protagonists. Instead, textual silences will be interpreted to investigate whether the othering of people like the readers themselves, an othering the reader partakes in when empathising with the protagonists, can be compared to ableism in the real world, and how teachers can use Harry Potter as means to introduce the idea of able-bodiedness as a social construct. By applying crip theory to the text, it can be stated that the division between the protagonist and his non-magical Other is based on ableist ideologies, which result in a positioning of the non-magical as disabled in the magical society.

  • An Exploration of JK Rowling's Social and Political Agenda in the Harry
    Vollmer UW-L Journal of Undergraduate Research X (2007) Harry’s World: An Exploration of J.K. Rowling’s Social and Political Agenda in the Harry Potter Series Erin Vollmer Faculty Sponsor: Richard Gappa, Department of English ABSTRACT Over the years, the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling has grown in popularity, becoming one of the most read and most criticized pieces of children’s literature to date. Interestingly, the series has not only gained popularity with children, but also their adult counterparts. As a result of its adult success, Harry Potter has attracted more and more scholars to pursue serious literary analysis, most frequently exploring themes such as death and religion. However, the focus of this research is on the intertextual parallels of the numerous hierarchical structures found in the Harry Potter series, examining how these hierarchies develop the social and racial themes in the story and vice versa. A further purpose is to determine if there is a correlation between the power structures found in the series and our own, drawing on secondary criticisms and theory for support. Above all, although the series should not be reduced to “this versus that,” there is sufficient evidence to argue that a conflict of materialistic versus altruistic values is at work in the Harry Potter series. Therefore, the examination of race, hierarchy, and power assists in the recognition of the social and political systems at work in the series. Keywords: J.K. Rowling, Hierarchy, Materialism INTRODUCTION When a skinny boy with black hair, green eyes, and a telltale scar appeared on the scene in 1997, nobody could have predicted the significant impact this seemingly insignificant boy would have on the world.

Their main goal was the preservation of law regarding magic. Furthermore, the Ministry of Magic keeps Muggles from finding out about the culture of magical folk. Essentially, the Ministry is a complicated and highly inefficient bureaucracy. Their headquarters are in London and are made up of various Departments. Boards, Committees, and Offices, all of whom enforce the regulations and rules of laws. The Ministry tackles different aspects such as commerce, transportation, magical creatures, sport, and international relations. Within the ministry, there are numerous law enforcement agencies. Their roles are to maintain order, impose laws and rules, manage security breaches, and operate Azkaban (prison for magical criminals). Besides this, the Ministry also maintains groups of Hit-police who protect the wizarding world and deal with criminals. The Wizengamot, High Wizard Court, is a governing body that serves as the ultimate judge of justice for the wizarding world. The ministry unites the British government to the world of witchcraft. Every prime minister of Britain is visited by the Minister for Magic.

Results from one experimental intervention with elementary school children and from two cross-sectional studies with high school and university students (in Italy and United Kingdom) supported our main hypothesis. Identification with the main character (i.e., Harry Potter) and disidentification from the negative character (i.e., Voldemort) moderated the effect. Perspective taking emerged as the process allowing attitude improvement. Theoretical and practical implications of the findings are discussed in the context of extended intergroup contact and social cognitive theory.

    ANAMORPHOSIS – Revista Internacional de Direito e Literatura v. 6, n. 1, janeiro-junho 2020 © 2020 by RDL – doi: 10.21119/anamps.61.177-198 DUMBLEDORE’S ARMY: CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE IN HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX ARTHUR EMANUEL LEAL ABREU1 ALEXANDRE DE CASTRO COURA2 TRANSLATED BY FELIPE ZOBARAN ABSTRACT: This paper explores the connection between law and literature, considering the concept of civil disobedience as developed in the plot of the novel Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. To do so, this research uses the approach of law in literature, by linking the actions of Dumbledore’s Army to the theory of civil disobedience by Dworkin. Also, the narrative is compared to the concept of civil disobedience as a fundamental right, based on the conflict between facticity and validity, as described by Habermas. Thus, the analysis identifies, in the novel, two categories of civil disobedience proposed by Dworkin, and discusses, in real life, the overlapping of disobedience based on justice and on politics, in order to identify the conditions that justify actions of civil disobedience. Besides that, this paper analyzes the tension between legality and legitimacy, considering the decisions of the Ministry of Magic and its educational decrees, which sets the school community apart from the official political power. In conclusion, the research examines the use of persuasive and non-persuasive strategies and the reach of civil disobedience’s purposes based on the actions of Harry Potter and of Dumbledore’s Army. KEYWORDS: civil disobedience; fundamental rights; law and literature; Harry Potter 1 Master’s Degree Student in Fundamental Rights and Warranties, at the Law School Faculdade de Direito de Vitória (FDV).
