| The Hidden Key To Harry
Potter |
$14.99 |
|
| The
novel approach of The Hidden
Key to Harry Potter is to
take Harry Potter seriously
as literature and explore
the meaning of the series'
structure, themes, and symbolism
as one would Shakespeare
or Dickens. Mr. Granger
begins by examining the
themes of prejudice, death
and bereavement, choice,
and change. Next he guides
the reader to an understanding
of why conventional interpretations
are insufficient, and why
these stories (and their
power) only make sense when
viewed from a symbolist
vantage point. Hidden Key
includes rich exegesis of
the Harry Potter books'
formulas, influences and
themes. Even fans who have
read the books several times
will be astonished at the
layers of traditional Christian
imagery and meaning revealed
in Hidden Key: from the
Resurrection Journey that
Harry takes every year at
Hogwarts to the alchemical
substances represented by
each character, from the
symbols of unicorn, phoenix,
and philosopher's stone
to the psychology of Harry's
trials and purification. |
