-Feminist icons in Harry Potter.
-Female who was not a pure-blood neglected most like Hermione.
-There were existence of Lavender Brown.
-Hermione’s character is not certainly not the archetype of a typical problematic female character.
 -How many times did we as women feel the brunt of a relationship not working out (though in this case this was just imaginary)? If we break up we’re called
names like ‘cold hearted bitches’ or ‘sluts’, whereas if the man breaks up he’s either a ‘player’ or it’s our fault
for falling for the wrong kind of men! Here Rowling shows how a girl is always judged for her behavior whereas the boy remains above all sins.

-Here in this article we see that the character of Hermione, Molly, Ginny, Lavender Brown described as a point of view of the male characters. There were also a feminist reading of the character Hermione.
- In the movie no.4 there we found that the Ron insulted relationship between Hermione and Victor Krum.
-Even in the movie we see that the reporter named Reeta raises a question on the friendship between the Harry and Hermione.

-How far Harry Potter  qualify the same?
-Speculative fiction is an umbrellagenreencompassing narrativefictionwith supernatural or futuristic elements This includes, but not limited to, the genres science fiction, fantasy, superhero fiction, science fantasy, horrorand supernatural fiction, as well as their combinations.
-In the second article we see that it talks about the fantasy world and Harry Potter also based on that things, because there were lots of use of Magical things.  In the last part of movie the Deathly Hallows we see that there were horror scenes are there and it is also a part of speculative literature. While we talk about the Harry Potter as a science fiction, there were we see that they also learn about the making of potion and how it is used well and where?

The theme of choice and chance: How does Harry Potter Discusses the antithetical concepts of ‘choice’ and ‘chance’?



-Harry Potter and deathly Hallows the theme of choice.
- For the first time in the last part we see that Harry here becomes really adult. Because that is the time when no one can help Harry but he himself take a decision for the fate of world. Even Voldemort given Harry to chance to redemption but he refuses, so here we see his choice, whatever he want he choose without any hesitation.

The theme of love and death: How dose Harry Potter make use of age old theme of love and death as well as living as protecting armour? How does Harry Potter deal with the concept of Death as something inevitable



In the Harry Potter Movie series the theme of Love and Death play a vital role.

Love and Death is a part of life of every human being.
In this link we see that the theme of love is most highlighted. Between the characters Harry, Hermione and Ron we found that some kind of love. Harry's love for Hermione is different not actually loved her. Ron seriously loved with Hermione so he was getting jealous when she was dating with victor Krum.

In another link we see that Harry has also some kind of attraction towards Cho but he can't say anything her. The other character named Ginny Who was also seriously loved with Harry.  She always in found Harry and also Worried about him.
