The aim is to evaluate Rowling’s world of fairy tales and its adherence to the criteria of a fantasy secondary world according to the frameworks proposed by T. Todorov (1973), R. Jackson (1981), and F. Mendlesohn (2008). The secondary world in the Harry Potter series, the wizarding world, is open to the real world and shares its geography, yet hidden from non-magical people. It is consistently described with its own culture, customs, traditions, and social norms. The central conflict is between Good and Evil for domination, with Evil aiming to extend its power to both the magic world and the real world. The fantasy world is relatable to readers due to its handling of universal themes and issues relevant to their lives, transferring characters into new life conditions. Research methods include content analysis, psychological research, and comparative analysis. Keywords: fantasy; secondary world; psychological accuracy; determinacy; dichotomous time.

En 2001 Chris Columbus adaptó Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal, la opera prima de Joanne Kathleen Rowling para convertirla en la primera película de la saga Harry Potter. Nuestro artículo ofrece un análisis de algunas de las decisiones que se tomaron respecto de la novela para hacer la película, en específico de cómo se trabajó con la trama y con el mundo mágico. Para ello se pone primero en contexto la película y se revisa el concepto de adaptación, de manera que después puede explicarse por qué es importante que Columbus escogiera filtrar unos elementos y mostrar otros, algo que se ejemplifica mediante dos escenas del filme., In 2001 Chris Columbus adapted Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Joanne Kathleen Rowling's opera prima to make it the first film in the Harry Potter saga.

To do so, the film is in first place put into context and the concept of adaptation is reviewed, so that later it can be explained why it is important that Columbus chose to filter some elements and show others, something that is exemplified by two scenes from the film.

This thesis aims to question the contribution of the Wizarding World’s film music – Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts – in the process of developing the work-world which is a globalizing artistic object. No less than five composers and four directors took turns for these ten films adapted from the fictional universe created by J. K. ROWLING. By adopting a comparative approach between the installments, the investigation highlights the prior composers’ writing intentions and analyzes the soundtracks from an aesthetic, thematic and audiovisual point of view.This study also examines the spectatorial appropriation of film music. It questions the transmediatizations of music (towards discographic albums, live performance and stories on the Internet) and their roles in the transformation of the work-world, while revealing the place occupied today by Wizarding World soundtracks in globalized culture.; Cette thèse a pour objectif d’interroger la contribution de la musique des films du Monde des sorciers – Harry Potter et les Animaux fantastiques – au processus d’élaboration de l’œuvre-monde qui est un objet artistique globalisant. Pas moins de cinq compositeurs et quatre réalisateurs se sont relayés pour ces dix films adaptés de l’univers fictionnel créé par J. K. ROWLING. En adoptant une démarche comparative entre les épisodes, l’investigation met en lumière les intentions préalables à l’écriture des compositeurs et analyse les bandes originales d’un point de vue esthétique, thématique et audiovisuel.Cette étude s’intéresse également à l’appropriation spectatorielle des musiques filmiques. Elle permet de questionner les transmédiatisations de la musique (vers les albums discographiques, le spectacle vivant et les récits sur Internet) et leurs rôles dans la transformation de l’œuvre-monde, révélant la place qu’occupent aujourd’hui les bandes originales du Monde des sorciers dans la culture mondialisée.

In addition to being interesting and educational, Children's and Young Adult literature frequently also has a psychological and emotional role for their readers. When having problems or doubts in life, (young) people tend to escape their world by reading books and imagining themselves in another universe. In their novels, J. K. Rowling and Veronica Roth made up two fantasy worlds for the readers to escape to: the Harry Potter universe and the imaginary, dystopian post-war Chicago respectively. In both, the characters are divided into several groups according to their ambitions and personality traits. In the center of J. K. Rowling’s work, is a young orphan wizard, Harry Potter, who enters the magical world thanks to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and makes lifelong friendships within his House. On the other hand, Veronica Roth depicts Tris (Beatrice), who has trouble fitting in in an imposed faction system. Having been assigned into specific circles or schools, the protagonists are set to behave and mature in a certain way. This paper will explore how the categorization of the characters influences the molding of their identities in order to show that being assigned to a specific group largely determines the path by which one’s identity will formed.

No presente artigo, são comparados dois contos de fadas de nacionalidades distintas: “A mesa, o burro e o porrete”, dos irmãos alemães Jacob e Wilhelm Grimm, e “O conto dos três irmãos”, de J. K. Rowling, com o objetivo de evidenciar que o texto de Rowling muito se assemelha ao dos Grimm. Além de verificar as relações intertextuais existentes, busca-se demonstrar que há um elemento unificador entre eles: o número três. Recorrendo a estudos que conferem o significado simbólico do número três, são analisados os dois contos e é demonstrada a recorrência do denominador comum, como na oferta de três objetos mágicos, que têm papel decisivo para o desenvolvimento da narrativa.

This paper analyses J. K. Rowling's The Tales of Beedle the Bard as an example of children’s literature that incorporates elements of magical realism. Rowling, a British author, is most prominent for the coming-of-age Harry Potter series of seven novels, which began in 1997 with the publication of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, her debut novel, lasted throughout the 2000s, and continues today with related works. After the release of the final book in 2007, Rowling released The Tales of Beedle the Bard in 2008 as a supplement to the series. This collection of tales was first mentioned in the last instalment of the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, when it was presented to Hermione Granger as a part of Dumbledore’s will. The Tales of Beedle the Bard are envisioned as fairy tales, and consist of five tales for witches and wizards’ children, each of them centred around magic, but with a didactic purpose which is beyond the magic itself. Therefore, this paper aims to identify the characteristics of fairy tales and magical realism in each of the tales from The Tales of Beedle the Bard, and their joint contribution to the creation of their didactic purpose. The analysis shows that each of the tales carries a didactic purpose as a result of the above-mentioned characteristics.

The archetypes are characters and plots that reappear in literature throughout history in different cultures and narrative genres. Archetypal literary criticism analyses a literary work through its archetypes, which puts focus on the roles of the characters in the story and the narrative structure. J. K. Rowling uses archetypal characters in the Harry Potter series and this allows the readers to identify themselves with her unique characters because they are already familiar to them even though they are new. She casts Harry Potter as the hero, Lord Voldemort as the villain, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger as the hero’s sidekicks, Albus Dumbledore as the mentor, and Fred and George Weasley as the tricksters for an element of comedy. Rowling also applies Campbell’s archetypal plot pattern Hero’s Journey to the series. She uses the Separation, Initiation and Return model to create a cycle in which Harry leaves the Dursleys and goes to Hogwarts each September, works on stopping Voldemort until he ultimately does, and returns back to the ordinary world. This cycle can be observed in Harry’s main quest, but it can also be noticed in each of the seven novels as secondary quests.

Made available in DSpace on 2021-06-25T11:45:17Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-01-01 This paper compares two fairy tales of different nationalities: The Wishing-Table, the Gold-Ass, and the Cudgel in the Sack, by the German brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, and The tale of the three brothers, by J. K. Rowling, with the aim of highlighting that Rowling's text very much resembles the Grimm's narrative. In addition to verifying the intertextual relations between both texts, it is sought to demonstrate that there is a unifying element between them: the number three. The two stories are analyzed through studies on the symbology of number three, and the recurrence of the common denominator is demonstrated, as in the supply of three magical objects, which have a decisive role in the development of the narrative of both stories.

This essay explores how in the Harry Potter series, J. K. Rowling's magical heroes function asparadigms whose roles reflect on issues of race, prejudice and racism. Those issues include goodand evil, socialism and aristocracy, purity and impurity, freedom and indebtedness. This essayfocuses on showing how those themes are reflected and confronted in the dipole between HarryPotter and Draco Malfoy. Additionally, the Critical Race Theory, a theory that examines howculture uses and assorts power and race in society, is implemented to show how race andprejudice are reflected in the magical world. By further analyzing Harry and Draco's upbringingand social milieus in relation to the theme of good vs. evil, the development of these characters ispresented in response to their contrasting surroundings. The paper concludes that thesecharacters evolve in the final novels and make conscious choices to achieve the common causeof defying evil, despite their opposing backgrounds.

Dennauppsats fokuserar på att visa hur dessa teman reflekteras och konfronteras i dipolen mellan HarryPotter och Draco Malfoy. Dessutom implementeras Critical Race Theory, en teori somundersöker hur kultur använder och sorterar makt och ras i samhället, för att visa hur ras ochfördomar återspeglas i den magiska världen. Genom att ytterligare analysera Harry och Dracosuppväxt och sociala miljöer i förhållande till temat ’gott mot ont’, presenteras dessa karaktärersutveckling som ett resultat av kontrasterande omgivning. Uppsatsen drar slutsatsen att dessakaraktärer utvecklas i de sista romanerna och gör medvetna val för att uppnå det gemensammamålet till att bekämpa det onda, trots deras motsatta bakgrunder.

Title: From Romance to Norm-Criticism. Visual Communication in Digital Fan Communities Fans and fan communities play an important part in today’s participatory culture. A central aspect of fans engagement in fictional worlds are the fan made artworks, for example fan fiction, fan art or fan vids, inspired by the original story and shared within the community. The article examines fan art related to the fictional worlds of the Engelsfors trilogy (2011–2013) by Sara Bergmark Elfgren and Mats Strandberg, and J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series (1997–2007). The analysis comprises two different motifs, both related to common repertoires for fan interpretation. “Shipping” is the term for fan’s engagement in a specific romantic relationship. In this article, I discuss the romance between Linnéa and Vanessa (the Engelsfors trilogy). The other motif, “racebending”, refers to artworks where fans change the race or ethnicity of one or more character. I analyse fan art were Hermione (Harry Potter) is depicted as black. Fans publish their artworks within the communities where the participants share knowledge, experiences, and emotions connected to the fictional world. My discussion focuses on how fan art functions as visual communication within these specific contexts. While fan fiction is usually described as adding to or transforming the fictional universe, fan art can also be said to highlight or underline specific aspects of the story or the reading experience by giving them visual representation.
