In this lecture, professor of English, Dr. Whitney Kosters, offers a full critical analysis of the first Harry Potter novel, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. Talking points include narrative choices, a character analysis of Harry, identity formation vis-à-vis suppressed information, active choices, and a quest for knowledge, how this is a coming of age/Bildungsroman, the monomyth or the Hero’s Journey, how Harry and his friends are deliberately made to be identifiable to the average reader despite their extraordinary circumstances, and how, as a fantasy and fairy tale, the Harry Potter novels offer an escape, a form of survival, and a coping means for children and young adults.
