MEMBINCANG “HARRY POTTER”, MEMBACA MITOS
Abstrak: In spite of the
celebration of Harry Potter, JK Rowling as the author was accused as teaching
and disseminating occultism among her readers. It is said that Harry Potter
could turn children to become demons. This accusation raised concerns among
parents and educators, especially Christians.
Furthermore, a priest from New Mexico, Jack Brock, was threatening to
burn Harry Potter volumes. Responding to the threat, JK Rowling was reported
calm. Harry Potter still wins the heart of thousands children all over the
world. A semiotic analysis toward Harry Potter books concludes that reality and
imagination were created (not depicted, or mirrored) in the world of wizardry.
Furthermore, an ideological analysis has successfully disclosed some
imperialism signs being downplayed in the story plot.
