K. Rowling. Set during protagonist Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts, the novel explores the past of Harry's nemesis, Lord Voldemort, and Harry's preparations for the final battle alongside his headmaster and mentor Albus Dumbledore. The book was published in the United Kingdom by Bloomsbury and in the United States by Scholastic on 16 July 2005, as well as in several other countries. It sold nine million copies in the first 24 hours after its release, a record at the time which was eventually broken by its sequel, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. There were many controversies before and after it was published, including the right to read the copies delivered prior to the release date in Canada. Reception to the novel was generally positive and it won several awards and honours, including the 2006 British Book of the Year award. Reviewers noted that the book took on a darker tone than its predecessors, though it did contain humour. Some considered the main themes to be love and death, and trust and redemption. The character development of Harry and several other teenage characters was also remarked upon. The film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was released 15 July 2009 by Warner Bros. Since its wide hardcover release on 16 July 2005, Half-Blood Prince was released as a paperback on 23 June 2006 in the UK. Two days later on 25 July, the paperback edition was released in Canada and the U.S., where it had an initial print run of 2 million copies. To celebrate the release of the American paperback edition, Scholastic held a six-week sweepstakes event in which participants in an online poll were entered to win prizes. Simultaneous to the original hardcover release was the UK adult edition, featuring a new cover, and which was also released as a paperback on 23 June. Also released on 16 July was the Scholastic "Deluxe Edition", which featured reproductions of Mary Grandpré's artwork and had a print run of about 100,000 copies. Bloomsbury later released a paperback "Special Edition" on 6 July 2009 and a "Signature Edition" paperback on 1 November 2010. APPENDIX II SYNOPSIS HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE Lord Voldemort has returned and his wrath has been felt in both the Muggle (non-magical) and Wizarding worlds. Severus Snape, a member of Dumbledore's anti-Voldemort Order of the Phoenix but formerly one of Voldemort's Death Eaters, meets with Narcissa Malfoy, mother of Harry Potter's school rival Draco. Bellatrix, who is Narcissa's sister and is Voldermort's most loyal and faithful servent is untrusting of Snape and believes his true intentions are not entirely in favor of the Dark Lord's plans. She insists that Snape take part in the Unbreakable Vow, which she believes he will not accept, but when he agrees, this prompts Bellatrix to accept his determination to protect the young Draco. Snape makes the Unbreakable Vow to Narcissa, promising to assist and protect Draco. Meanwhile, Dumbledore collects Harry from his aunt and uncle's house giving them a not so subtle threat that Harry is to be of age soon and soon will not be needing their home but for one more year and their past actions have not gone unnoticed. He then takes Harry to the home of Horace Slughorn, former Potions teacher at Hogwarts. Dumbledore tries to persuade a reluctant Slughorn to return to teaching and finally succeeds. Later, when shopping for schoolbooks, Harry and his friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger follow Draco Malfoy to Dark Arts supplier Borgin and Burkes, where they overhear Draco insisting that the store-owner fix an unknown object. Harry is instantly suspicious of Draco, whom he believes to be a Death Eater like his father. While on the Hogwart's Express, Harry senses Draco is up to no good. He uses his Invisibility cloak to sneak into the back compartment where Draco is bragging to his peers that he may not attend his final year, lamenting that he has learned all he needs to learn and that big changes are coming. While talking, he notices a quick glimpse of Harry sneaking up onto the overhead luggage rack. After the train arrives at Hogwart's, Draco implores his friends to go on ahead and he will catch up with them later. He uses a stunning spell to render Harry paralyzed. he begins to antagonize Harry about the suffering he has caused Draco's father at the hands of The Dark Lord. He proceeds to break Harry's nose and covers him in the Invisibility Cloak. Draco knows the train will take Harry back to London undiscovered and he will miss the first night of term. After Draco departs, Nymphadora Tonks finds Harry and reverses the spell, helping Harry to the gates of Hogwart's, where they are both interrogated by Professor Snape, but finally allowed to enter the safety of the school. The students return to school, where Dumbledore announces that Snape, the previous Potions teacher, will be teaching Defence Against the Dark Arts, while Slughorn will resume his post as Potions teacher. This allows Harry to continue with a Potions course, in which he now excels, thanks mainly due to having received a used Potions textbook that once belonged to someone named "The Half-Blood Prince", which is heavily annotated. Harry falls in love with Ron's sister Ginny, and Ron and his girlfriend Lavender Brown break up, to Hermione's delight. Harry spends much of his time following Draco Malfoy for any proof of suspicious actions, though he often cannot find him on his Marauder's Map, a magical map of Hogwarts.

  • 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.

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.

  • Compare and Contrast Essay Media
    Compare & Contrast Essay Example Harry Potter vs. Draco Malfoy Can a hero and a villain ever be alike? Strangely, it would seem like the answer to that question would be no. However, when it comes to Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter, the two are more alike than you realize. Comparing and contrasting these two unique characters based on their destinies, families, and friends can show you how Harry and Draco have more in common than one might think. You can’t control your fate. The truth of these words for Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy drive the paths of their lives. However, how each different boy’s fate unfolds is what makes one considered the hero and the other a villain. Harry Potter is destined to be the “Chosen One”. He did not choose this destiny, but it was thrown on him as a child because of how events unfolded for his family. On the other hand, Draco Malfoy has family expectations of siding with and supporting the death eaters because of his father’s affiliation. Failure to follow Voldemort could lead to not only his death but that of his family. While fate is important, their families are what set their fate into stone. It’s true that both boys had parents that loved them. However, the fact that Harry’s parents died when he was just a child and he was raised by the Dursley prepared him for the hardships to come. He had a thick skin from suffering ridicule and emotional abuse for years. Therefore, when it came to right and wrong, he was prepared to stand up and fight for what was right.

    Estetisk-filosofiska fakulteten Nova Dahlén Severus Snape and the Concept of the Outsider Aspects of Good and Evil in the Harry Potter Series Engelska D-uppsats Termin: VT 2009 Handledare: Åke Bergvall Examinator: Mark Troy Karlstads universitet 651 88 Karlstad Tfn 054-700 10 00 Fax 054-700 14 60 [email protected] www.kau.se Table of contents Introduction 1 Severus Snape 2 Snape and Dumbledore 6 Snape and Voldemort 10 Snape and Harry 14 Conclusion 20 Works cited 22 Introduction J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series contains a large number of outsider characters, ranging from fun sidekicks and magical creatures to evil antagonists. The concept of outsiders has been argued to be one of the main themes in childhood fairy tales in general and in the Harry Potter novels in particular: as most children feel like outsiders sometime during their upbringing, they can identify with this concept (Heilman and Gregory 242; O’har 862; Ostry 89-90). The outsiders of the Harry Potter series may be defined as characters who, although they may have friends or relationships, are significant in how their primary function relies on their distance to others. Severus Snape is one of the most evident outsider characters in the novels, described as an unpleasant, ugly man portrayed with constant ambiguity: Seemingly working for both Lord Voldemort (the evil side) and the Order of the Phoenix (the good side), he is presented as a double agent with uncertain allegiances. However, when the truth is revealed in the very last pages of the series he is discovered to have been an undercover spy for the good side all along.
