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"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aBlackwell philosophy and popculture series. 606 $aPotter, Harry (Fictitious character) 606 $aHogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry (Imaginary organization) 606 $aPhilosophy in literature 606 $aChildren's stories, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFantasy fiction, English$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aPotter, Harry (Fictitious character) 615 0$aHogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry (Imaginary organization) 615 0$aPhilosophy in literature. 615 0$aChildren's stories, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFantasy fiction, English$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a823/.914 686 $aCUR000000$aPHI000000$2bisacsh 700 $aIrwin$b William$0170484 701 $aBassham$b Gregory$f1959-$01628445 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910968132903321 996 $aThe ultimate Harry Potter and philosophy$94354403 997 $aUNINA
