Feminist reading of Hermione's character in Harry Potter



Feminist reading of Hermione's character in Harry Potter:




                       
        Hermione Jane Granger is one of the most popular characters from the Harry Potter series. She is especially popular with young female fans that see this character as a role model. In recent literature novel, strong female role models are very rare. They usually are created as weak fallen in love girls with heart broken who try to take a revenge, or just try to change their looks to attract their boys then theycan live happily ever after, and that is the end of the story. However, J.K. Rowling offered something different with marvelous style of her writing. She presented girls of this generation with a strong female role model in Hermione Jane Granger.Hermione's brave choices, her ability to stand up for what is morally right and her intelligence make her one character that our generation of young women these days can be proud to look up to. Somehow, the writer definitely believes that it is Hermione who is the main brain of the Harry Potter series who makes the entire plan and guides Harry to all of his adventures. And that’s why this paper was made, to analyze Hermione’s strong character into a deeper aspect of Harry Potter book series.
    

          Harry Potter taught us that even the most ordinary person has  the power to bring a positive change in the world. The books gave us    heroines   like Hermione Granger – intelligent, fierce, and a loyal friend, someone who values books more than her looks. When society was teaching us girls that being pretty was the most desirable trait for our gender, Rowling reminded us that it was okay to be awkward and to prefer the pursuit of knowledge over the pursuit of outward beauty.There are other binaries, other story lines associat-There are other binaries, other story lines associate with girlhood and femininity, that mark our culture and that appear in the Harry Potter novel.
