Image
Hello Readers, Here I share my view point on Theme of Christianity and Harry Potter Series with reference research papers and articles. Theme of Christianity and Harry Potter Series: How many times Harry and his friends visit Church? how often in the moments of crisis when they are helpless, clueless, they pray to God for Grace or Mercy? How many times God's Grace saves them from the Devil Lord Voldemort? Does J.K. Rowling use Christianity at any level in the entire Harry Potter series? 1)Though Death is the major theme in the novel, the presence of Christian allegories  can be easily speculated. And novel title also based on myths. Harry Potter and Deathly hallows part-1 is example of Christ figure in this part Harry come back after death so his character like Jesus Christ. 2)J. K. Rowling creates a world in which there is no religion and no god, but in  which there is still a great sense of morality and love. Throughout whole series of Harry Potter anywh...

The theme of Love and Death: How does Harry Potter make use of age old theme of Love of the dead as well as living as protecting armour? How does Harry Potter deal with the concept of Death as something inevitable? Arguments and Illustration One of arguments of research scholar After thousands of pages of Harry Potter’s story, it is  clear now that this has been J. K. Rowling’s theme from the beginning: love, friendship, sacrifice, and eventually  life. For it is life that springs out of Harry’s gift of him- self: the life of self-sacrifice, the life that defeats death,  the life of ongoing friendship. We can see Harry potter and Deathly hallows part-1 Dobby self sacrifice for his friends and other parts like Harry Potter and Deathly hallows part-2 Harry self-sacrifice but his friendship and love became helpful to defeated death. ...

What sort of synthesis is sought in this discourse in Harry Potter series? Arguments and Illustration- • Pure blood supremacy for example we can see in the film- Malfoy family, Malfoy family is belong to pure blood that's why they feel superior than others so Draco also felt superior than others and he insulted other children. • Mudblood, Half-bloods and Pure-bloods These are issues of racism and race discrimination That's why in the novel three categories children Hermione belong to Mudblood, Harry belong to half-blood, Draco Malfoy belong to pure blood and most of each and every part shown racial discrimination for example He...

Hello Readers, Here I share my review with some of the references. Feminist reading of Hermione's character and other women in the Harry Potter series How do the character portrayal of Harmione and other female characters support feminist discourse? According to movie as well as according to research  paper on Harry Potter through the Focus of Feminist Literary Theory:Examples of (Founded Criticism Krunoslav MIKULAN.

Image
Hello Readers, Here I given answer according to this link  Click Here Da Vinci code 1. Brown states on his website that his books are not anti-Christian, though he is on a 'constant spiritual journey' himself, and says that his book The Da Vinci Code is simply "an entertaining story that promotes spiritual discussion and debate" and suggests that the book may be used "as a positive catalyst for introspection and exploration of our faith." According to me this statement behinds two reasons first he said himself his books are not anti-Christian because when we see in our society there are majority of people are blind follower of religion that’s why in this novel blind follower faith broken by professor Robert who is also blind follower and according to this novel Sophie Nenue who is blood line of Jesus Christ even she doesn’t show believe of God. So maybe on the other hand Brown give sign that if anyone blood line of God even they don’t become blind...
