The only thing we had in common besides a few movies that none of us had seen more than once back in those Dark Ages before DVDs was. We had nothing in common on which to build a conversation except campy parodies of super-hero comic books. The College had a solution for our problem, of course: Literature mavens like Harold Bloom not to be confused with Allan may think Harry Potter little better aesthetically or thematically than Batman TV serials, but even the Ivory Tower and Christian Ghetto residents who hate Harry hate him in large part because they fear the depth of influence he will have on young hearts and on the culture they will grow up to shape.

Death The Final Stage Of Growth

Like it or not, we now have a shared text. There is no relativism in the Harry Potter novels. In the good-versus-evil sub-creation from Ms. The books, as books, invite readers to read more books.

Before meeting Allan Bloom and, through him, the Western canon, my friends and I were a sarcastic and self-absorbed, if good-hearted lot, nourished on stories that were only diversion and dissipation.

I have to think my children are better prepared and more willing to embrace that tradition than I was because of their years of instruction at Hogwarts castle. I struggle to think of any fictional work of the last two or three centuries that had the potential to shape the cultural and political agendas of its time as this one does. Harry Potter differs from these in that the others ignited a latent Christian conscience. The Potter novels help foster one into existence. Chuck Klosterman regrets the dawn of a Harry Potter generation but acknowledges it.

I join him in pointing to the elephant at the door but rush to usher the pachyderm in. From this text, we can build a conversation about virtue and vice, and about what reading does to the right-side-up soul. His website is HogwartsProfessor.
