Here are my views about the novel ‘Harry Potter’ by J.K.Rowling.

Here are my views about the novel ‘Harry Potter’ by J.K.Rowling:
                                               

 1. The Feminist reading:
Here we can see the portrayal of the character of Hermione and the other characters. Though Hermione is presented as the strong character throughout all the novels but still we can see some loose stones in her character. First of all in the movie she is shown as the beautiful girl. When Harry, Ron and Hermione grow up Hermione becomes the reason of the fighting between both of them. The other female characters like Lily Potter, Harry’s mother is also depicted as just a beautiful lady. All the time her name is mentioned when people talk about Harry’s eyes. But she is never mentioned as the powerful like Harry’s father. But if we minutely observe that we can see that Harry was alive because of his mother. And the portrayal of the Patil sisters.

2. Speculative Literature:
The basic understanding of Speculative literature means a world created by the author in which the rules and regulations are convincing in that world only. The rules may differ from our world in which we are live. Speculative literature also have the element of supernatural powers and at some extend the feeling of fear. Here J.K.Rowling has created the world of wizards and witches which is convincing to that world only and as a reader we can inter into that world through our imagination. It is true that Harry Potter is speculative literature but as the story forwards it talks about the reality of and death. And that is how J.K.Rowling is able to reach ‘Real’ literature through her work. And the journey is of Harry Potter so he is the soul of this story.

3.  Theme of Love and Death:
The theme of love and death goes parallel from the very beginning of the novel. Here Harry is representing love and Voldamort is representing the death. Though both the characters are grow without family but one is (Harry) is surrounded by friends as love and the other (Voldamort) is also surrounded by friends but in form of followers and they are there out of fear. J.K.Rowling is trying to give the ultimate truth of life that though Harry is a good fellow but he can’t escape from the death. Death is the reality of everybody’s life.

Thanking You…
