The Boy Who Went Forth to Learn What Fear Was: Analysis The story of “The Boy Who Went Forth to Learn What Fear Was” fits a common structure in fairy tales – it is a coming-of-age story, a story that starts with a child that, by the end of the story, becomes an adult. It follows the tale of an ignorant younger brother, whose only skill he wants to learn is how to get “the creeps.” He goes through three trials filled with death and supernatural beings, which eventually earns him a bride and gold.…

“The Tale of Three Brothers” was first presented in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and last book in the Harry Potter series written by J.K. Rowling. In the story arc, one of the main character, Hermione Granger, narrates the story from her copy of The Tales of Beedle the Bard. These tales were commonly read to children as bedtimes stories because they are “told to amuse rather than instruct” (Rowling 409). “The Three of Three Brothers” relates how three brothers cheated Death…

Throughout the Harry Potter series, storylines and plots changed throughout the books, but one thing remained consistent- the personalities of the characters. A reader could always rely on Harry to save the day, Ron to be his sidekick, Mrs. Weasley to be motherly, and Draco Malfoy to be a bully. This is because the characters each had their own archetype, or pattern of behavior throughout the series. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling specifically demonstrated these archetypes.…

This example is the creation of Dumbledore’s Army. This alliance formed as a coalition against the policies of Professor Dolores Umbridge who had been sent by the Ministry of Magic to oversee the school.

Together, these…

An inference I can make about a relationship between two characters is the relationship between Harry and Hagrid. Since Hagrid told Harry the truth about his parent. “But you must know about your mom and dad,” he said. “I mean, they’re famous. You’re famous.” Hagrid said this to Harry in Chapter 4, after bursting into the hut on the island where Mr. Dursley has brought Harry to escape the magical letters. Hagrid’s was surprise at Harry’s ignorance of himself and of his family underscores the…

The character with the most leadership that I noticed was Hiccup. He has a lot of pressure on him being Stoick the Vast’s son, and he’s not really a Viking at all. Watching How To Train Your Dragon is like reading a Mark Twain novel; you watch the boy grow up. In the beginning of the movie Hiccup is more of a burden to the village than helpful. Nevertheless at the end Hiccup leads the other teenagers in Dragon Training to save the villagers from the dragon’s nest. That is a big turning point…

He was a half…

The rest of the room was simply decorated, a thick white rug covered the floor with a sitting area consisting of a long sofa and a chair near the windows that were draped with thick blue draperies that blocked the light. "This is your room," Amelia repeated from the doorway. "You can do with it what you want, it's your zone nobody else's. If you don't like the paint we can change it," "No - its - its perfect," he murmured softly before turning away and smiling at the older woman. "Thank you,"…
