Document Summary

Harry you re a great wizard, you know. I m not as good as you, said harry ( ) There are more important things friendship and bravery . Framing of cleverness: girls = smart, boys = dumb/brave. Hermione undermines her own cleverness: actually just trying to encourage harry = not undermining, trying to promote gryffindor values of bravery etc, lonely girl valuing the friendship she finally received. The dursleys are presented as a negative view on the middle class obsessed with fitting in and material objects. The malfoys are presented as the evils of the upper class being disrespectful of anyone below them. Ravenclaw = intelligence / gryffindor = army = middle class. Hagrid is shown to be an oaf not a flattering image of lower classes. Year end points harry is special (given more points) but the others are valued as well (they still get lower points) Harry s position as seeker also places him as a hero.
