The riddles of Harry Pottersecret passages and interpretive quests /[electronic resource] :Shira Wolosky. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2010. - 1 online resource (x, 225 p.)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The Magic of Harry Potter -- Double Meanings -- Well-Spotted: Plots and Reversals -- The Turns of Time: Memory, Prediction, Prophecy -- Mirror Images -- Moral Fables -- Rebirth.

Handbooks, guides, and articles on the Harry Potter books have been produced, but there is as yet no sustained discussion of the series as a literary work. Shira Wolosky shows here that the Harry Potter books take part in a rich literary tradition, including allegorical double meanings, mirror images among characters, psychological explorations of family dynamics, political and social critique, and complex moral questions. This book draws readers into deeper meanings of Harry Potter, arguing that the books launch and pursue interpretive quests in an ongoing effort to understand patterns and their attendant meanings, implications, and consequences.
