A lot of time in the later books is given over to Harry learning to shut off Voldemort and resist temptation, which is obviously linked to Christ as well. I think that HP is one of those rare modern series where you can actually read into it with such depth. Harry is prepared to die so that others can survive. This could lead to an obvious religious reading of the text. I think that the series is ultimately about love and evil, and they can take many forms, not necessarily religious forms.
I don't think Harry IS presented as being PURE good. I think Rowling takes great pains to ensure that Harry is not read as a perfect charaacter; he has faults and flaws like anybody and these are demonstrated throughout all 7 novels. This only adds to the books since Harry, besides his magical abilities and tragic history, is just like any other person. His courage and duty is what sets him apart; where many could run away, he stands tall and fights.
i was trying to make a point. It was lame i know. And i gave you another example Parish! In the Sorcerer's stone, when hermione used "Pertrificus Totalus" on neville it did what it was supposed too. And Levicorpus in The Order of the Phoenix. And Reducto in the Order of the Phoenix. Not every spell blasts back.
Joanne K. Rowling did not originate the Harry Potter story. It is of my origin. A poem I wrote reveals the theft of the story from my home, in Australia, and how it appeared in England under the name of J. K. Rowling. My writers name is J. K. Rawling. I created that pseudonym after creating the story-board artwork for The Lion King. Read my poem The Liar Bird which reveals how my story got taken from my home In Australia and appeared as a story by the plagiarist J. K. Rowling. I am Greg Simcock. I created my pseudonym so as to not have to use my real surname on children's stories which I created.
Having created hundreds of stories and hundreds of inventions designs, all well designed and set-out on paper and filed in my ring-binder files in my home I was the copyright holder of that work. As I was unemployed after sustaining a lower-back injury during my Military service I kept to myself and created thousands of drawings and those drawings were often pictures worthy of publishing but money was not growing on my money tree that I had near my back door. My second story I named The Lion King and my surname "Simcock" was the basis for the creation of the name of the young lion in that story. Simba therefore was the young lion who would eventually become the King in the story I created. When it came time for me to create a name for my third story my money was very short in supply, being on a veteran's pension, and so I wrote the word MONEY on my drawing pad. I decided to write words from the letters that made up the word MONEY but to make the process easier than writing many words on paper that had no meaning I tore a page of print from a magazine and used the letters that made up the title page of large font and cut the letters to form the word MONEY. As I pushed those letters around the pad I had resting on my lap I had difficulty in setting them in line and so I took a wooden letter-board from a game of Monopoly I had, which had no cover and was next to the chair in which I was sitting, and set the letters I had cut from a title page of a TV Guide and removed letter Y. I done so because I did not see a need for-to-have a question as to why I needed money for having created so many stories and Inventions. I just wanted my efforts in creating so many things and stories to bring me a financial reward and as that would include money I needed no question of how much money I would receive for my efforts in creating things over about thirty years and so I had remaining on the letter block four letters. They read MONE and although I saw that as Money for One, me, it was not suitable as a title for a story about a disobedient little fish and so I mused over my work for a while and then moved the first two letters over to the opposite side and in doing so I formed the word NEMO. It sounded unusual but with my need to find money from the publishing of my story I settled for Finding NEMO. After my work on my inventions and stories getting stolen from my home I have never received one cent of money from it or of the revenue-streams created from the sales of my inventions and stories. It would have been futile for me to have made claims for copyright infringement after such a large number of drawings got stolen from my home. I resided on the fact that the original creator of any work, regardless of what that work is, has the rights of copyright inherent in that word. Unfortunately the copyright holder cannot stop the act of theft and plagiarism. My stories and Inventions soon were being made into a myriad of novels and products and sold to the unsuspecting people across the world. That left me unknown as other authors and inventors became known for what were really my creations. Joanne Rowling is one of those people who has infringed upon my original stories by writing some of them up into novels and having them published but doing so has left me the most unknown author while Joanne Rowling has become known to me as the most well-paid plagiarist. When I created the story-board for The Lion King story production I formed my writers name J. K. Rawling with my initials of my parents and letter K of my surname. J.K.R
Greg Simcock You are on TH-cam talking about your achievements instead of directly interacting with J K Rowling...that pretty much explains everything!
I think if they made it a good, good, excellent sort of Anime, like Death Note, and not Pokemon (in regards to animation) it could be quite nice. It`s all about quality in the end, afterall! Be it music, movies, cartoons, books or comics!
i agree with u parish 180 the spells never take effect as exactly as in the book and i agree with him on the "knock them silly" thing that's kinda lame.
most of the spells send people back. Stupefy is meant to knock them silly. KNOCK, meaning fly. and not every spell makes them fly. Did you forget Pertrificus Totalus? Did neville fly backwards? no, he fell forward.
Just a quick tip here earnie. In the writing world we call the 'structures, features' plotlines, themes, story arch and so on. You should probably read a book before claiming to write one. Oh and Jo didn't claim the story fell fully formed into her head; the intial simple idea did and the rest just flowed. Thats when you know you have a good idea ( at least to you ) because it just keeps developing quickly after that initial spark. Not your best attempt earnie.
indefinitely. he may be extremely selfless, courageous etc. but he was stupid as well. he let rage get the better of him a lot, and his not listening to Hermoine led to Sirius' death. He also used the cruicio curse, which not many dare to use because it's so evil.
noooo!!! anime harry potter?!!?!?!?! please don't insult harry potter like that will ruin harry potter, they always add lies to cartoon. besides harry potter is english not japanees
what has that got to do with Rowling and the world of Harry Potter? if you actually read my comment you will find that I am also praising other authors who have done the same.
Interesting how Judy predicted to a T the marriages of Harry, Ginny, Ron and Hermione, and Jo's just smiling quietly to herself :3
Wasn't exactly shocking though was it.
well, the interview took place when 6 books were out, so it was quite predictable
thumbs up if you;re watching all of her interviews on youtube !
JK imagination and intelligence is amazing. how a single person can make a whole world of their own like she has. is just WOW
@InsaneChef that was the whole point of his character , he was only human.

Why did you copyright your work on tumblr in 2011?

Because I felt like it.
2:32 Start of the interview
i agree with u parish 180 the spells never take effect as exactly as in the book and i agree with him on the "knock them silly" thing that's kinda lame.
Anime??? Absolutely not. I cant stand people trying to monopolize Harry Potter--LEAVE IT ALONE, ITS PERFECT AS IT IS
great interview
It's a sad day when Tolkien isn't as remembered...
i know. that was the point i was trying to make in reply to whoever i replied to six months ago. lol
she said it, he die's in the 7th book, 2 books before it was written
i read every one of ur books harry potter
most of the spells send people back. Stupefy is meant to knock them silly. KNOCK, meaning fly. and not every spell makes them fly. Did you forget Pertrificus Totalus? Did neville fly backwards? no, he fell forward.

Oh, she's so great... I swear... I'd marry her.
why not?
Actually its a good idea to have all details of the book version in the animation
what does she say about Malory Towers?
Judy was right then...
Richard has great accent!!
The lady in pink looks like the inspiration for Dolores Umbridge.
ooppss...i meant stop giving the plot points away.
What could Harry do? He was under so much stress and Bellatrix killed his only family left, he was bound to do it.
Oh look it`s Umbridge.
yes please explain. how the hell do the movies suck? and if they do, then blame the director, not daniel.
Take my comment exactly as I said it, not as some other meaning toward you or anyone else.
indefinitely. he may be extremely selfless, courageous etc. but he was stupid as well. he let rage get the better of him a lot, and his not listening to Hermoine led to Sirius' death. He also used the cruicio curse, which not many dare to use because it's so evil.
Judy got her wish!
please, explain.
Judy gets just what she wants then (: ! x
it isnt against the law. Once she ends the series, she then owns no rights to the characters except in the book.
no she will not, she wouldn't do that to her fans! and nobody can use his character, its against the law. even if it isnt, nobody would read them!
Read Book seven and you'll see!
What are you doing here if you aven't finish reading???
then why would you state it in reply to my comment about JK?
naah, the movies are pretty good too
lol i cant imagine matt le blanc as the only gay in the village.
worlds most ANNOYING hosts
@xXxmissemmaxXx i thought of the same thing too...
noooo!!!
anime harry potter?!!?!?!?!
please don't insult harry potter like that will ruin harry potter, they always add lies to cartoon. besides harry potter is english not japanees
what has that got to do with Rowling and the world of Harry Potter? if you actually read my comment you will find that I am also praising other authors who have done the same.
