Essay On Wizardry Rowling

Superior Essays
She has made 325 million in book sales, a near billion in films and yet she has the unnerving ordinariness of saying 'British girls don 't cry ' when people question the content of her 'Harry Potter ' stories. There is nothing relevant or new to what Rowling brings to the vast literacy table; her integrity is on the chopping board ready to be butchered, it happens every year it seems, like an annual event, yet all she says is 'British girls don 't cry '. Rowling systematically is a shrine to her works, as the juggernaut stops I wonder what else this serene lady could offer her adoring audience, perhaps a shrine to her 'Potty World '. Annual opening of 'Potter Wizardry ' museums across the pond, '3D Potter spectacle corporation ', maybe …show more content…

I see it similar to a Banksy wall painting, except I did it legally and without the council having to paint over the doodles before he became good at his art, he has inspired many. Creativity usually is inspired or influenced by what is around us and even though Rowling lacks in writing talent, her visions and imagination is unquestionably got to be marveled at. I hasten a guess that if Shakespeare was also here today, he would inevitably have the same problem that Rowling is enduring. Proving their works are genuine; except I do know Shakespeare was incapable of writing anything of coherent due to his Opium addiction. Having friends in high places helped his plight in gaining a lot of Dantes works in the late 16th century; he then put his own name on the unpublished pieces. Opportunism, well I feel Rowling can 't hand on heart claim that content wasn 't birthed elsewhere before she read

    It is unsurprising for a seasoned author like J.K. Rowling to write an empowering piece; however, what is astonishing is the poignant way in which she delivered the commencement speech to the Harvard graduating class of 2008. Her speech was meant to enlighten the graduates about life after college by focusing on the benefits of failure and the importance of imagination. The commencement speech followed a topical pattern, thus she centered her speech around life after college and the equal importance of failure and imagination by utilizing her own life experiences as a mere twenty-year-old to explain her main points. Not only was the speech easy to follow because she clearly stated what she would speak about, She delivered the speech in a truly…
