@refeist Faerie Tale was a wonderful novel and it inspired me. My history honors thesis is looking the origins of fairie belief within the mysticism of the British Isles from a historical perspective.I also live in San Diego,but I'm an Aztec, but I do love your books.Thank you.
@TalkFilmSoc@josephsdsu So sad!! I actually did a paper on him for a film class. Brilliantly talented man! RIP Mr. Gold. May the marquee lights always shine around your legacy.
this summer at the University of Stirling,to study History of witchcraft in early modern Scotland and monsters and Vampire in British pop culture,I feel almost like I’m venturing into an aspect of Harry https://t.co/OIJDWCpYJe’s not Hogwarts but maybe the closest I’ll get! #HP503
The journey is almost over...or is it? While the class may be over, I find myself still being a Harry Potter fan, simply because the books were entertaining and while the wizarding world is as imperfect as our own, Hogwarts is a place I’d still wish to attend. #HP503.
@Chhitmeister@josephsdsu In the movie Transcendence, once the power and connection is removed,they are just pieces of metal and small parts, good for paperweights or doorstoppers or to throw at an annoying person. We use them because we have them. But it’s hard to unplug from constant, fast connection.
Reading HP with an adult lens set on analyzing it,I see what lies beneath.The subtext full of innuendo,the wizarding world is pretty fucked up in the second https://t.co/r7xK4Rsf0c has rascism,sexism and superiority complexes. Looking closer,there’s dirt behind the shine.#HP503
@josephsdsu @rachybachy222 @MacyyMargosian I think they have it, when they are ready to procreate. Sex isn’t just for the glory of bumping uglies, they have results. It seems they have kids fairly young, unless they have social hang ups like Remus? #HP503
@coolschoolaccnt I think it speaks of the future and procreation. They are all ripe for it, with all the innuendoes. But I am surprised at one thing...Ron and Hermione never did anything...two hormonal teenagers, alone, facing possible death...Harry could have taken a long walk.#HP503
Working on my "Witches and Witch-hunting: Texts and Contexts" lecture @SDSU on 4/30 in the @DHatSDSU Digital Humanities Lab in LA 61... Sponsored by Special Collections & University Archives (and History Dept) to welcome & contextualize our newly acquired Malleus Maleficarum!
To those who are interested, Professor Pollard @sdsu_h100 is presenting a lecture about Witchcraft on Monday. I think it will be interesting to hear about history of witchcraft then compare how much we find interpellated in Harry Potter (this is my creative project).#HP503
@WhiteEmaleigh They are loyal to the very end...a dear friend sacrifices herself, just as Dobby did. I kind of think that is how Harry’s worth was determined. So many people/creatures died for him so he could save everyone else. It’s the hero’s way. Survivors remorse. #HP503
