    Before Daniel Radcliffe became the most famous child actor in history, he was just a child: an only child, a poor sleeper, a nonstop talker, a picky eater. He was also disarmingly sweet. In the screen test he took at age 10, in 2000, for the first Harry Potter film, “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone,” he smiles brightly, ebullient, his delight in being there apparent; he is concentrating, concentrating so hard at one point that he mouths words under his breath while waiting to deliver a line, but even still, when he does finally speak, he is all natural sincerity. His face is a flawless little-boy face, his eyes huge and cerulean blue. One eye occasionally blinks more slowly than the other, but no matter. He turns, compliantly, this way and that when asked. About four minutes into the footage, someone places the iconic round glasses on him, and there he is: Harry Potter, boy wizard, the chosen one. The adult voice on the video says: “Those look good.”…

    In Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire by J.K Rowling, many forms of abuse are touched on throughout the novel. Although many of the novels throughout the series amplify abuses in different magnitudes, the fourth book in particular has many different kinds of abuse that are very apparent. Some are glossed over quickly, while others are much more intense. Analyzing instances of abuse and how it is dealt with gives the reader greater insight on the magical world. Three specific instances include house elf slavery, child abuse, and animal abuse - all of which are handled differently. These abuses are interesting as they characterize the magical world as a place where abuse is often taken lightly, as stakes are less high due to the presence of…
