Beyong the veil : death, hope and meaning."The Ultimate Harry Potter: Hogwarts for Muggles, is a fresh and distinctive report on the great ideas in the series. All the authors of these chapters have had the advantage of thinking through their chosen issues, and writing up their conclusions after the entire Potter storyline was complete, and Rowling had even had her say in public about things that never made it into the pages of the official texts. The philosophers and other top Harry Potter experts gathered together here offer new voices and new perspectives on many of the most important ideas that come up in the books--some of which can be genuinely life changing. Reading this book will be like putting on a Philosophical De-Coder Ring. It will show you vital aspects of the deepest story that lies behind these famous stories"--Provided by publisher.Blackwell philosophy and popculture series.Potter, Harry (Fictitious character)Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry (Imaginary organization)Philosophy in literatureChildren's stories, EnglishHistory and criticismFantasy fiction, EnglishHistory and criticismPotter, Harry (Fictitious character)Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry (Imaginary organization)Philosophy in literature.Children's stories, EnglishHistory and criticism.Fantasy fiction, EnglishHistory and criticism.823/.914CUR000000PHI000000bisacshIrwin William170484Bassham Gregory1959-1628445MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910968132903321The ultimate Harry Potter and philosophy4354403UNINA
