Hermione Granger Archetype
Archetype of Hermione Granger
In the Harry potter novels,J.K. Rowling uses the Archetype of a witch to create Hermione Granger with the following:Sympathetic, Compassionate and Stands up for herself and her friends.
I feel like Hermione Granger best demonstrates these 3 characteristics and they fit her the most in a way.Hermione Granger is a good witch,she's the good guy in all the movies and novels she's in helping out Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.that kinda comes down to sympathetic and compassionate,when her friends or anyone needed her she was there for them through the good and the bad at time helping them through it.In the early books and movies when she was getting picked on she didnt really take it,she always stood up for herself not

    Witchcraft is understood by being a religion that includes reverences for nature, and belief in rights of others and includes own spirituality. People that practice witch craft now focus on doing good things and helping others. They also refuse to be connected to the devil. Their beliefs go back to ancient times, long time before the advent of Christianity. In current culture witches have been confused with the belief they have black pointy hats, green faces with broom sticks. This is often how witches are portrayed in movies and…

    One of the ideas behind Borge’s Garden of the forking paths is that God allows people to choose. They are free to make their own decisions and forge their own path, but it is one’s path which defines their character. Decisions explain one’s motivation and determination to act on those decisions which by definition means character. In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, by J.K. Rowling, characters as Neville, Hermione, Professor Quirrell and Harry Potter defend the idea that people’s choices define their character.…

    Courageous feats against evil, self-sacrificial acts for justice, and invincible God-given stamina which happens to accompany a chiseled robust frame that contours the perfect shadow in any light devises a common image. This recurring concept of the undaunted hero is archetypal; these symbols represent things that have been experienced throughout human existence. They are continuously used by writers and artists, meaning that the fundamental concept is transferred, making archetypal language a part of the everyday world. The daily lives of people are immersed in these symbols and ideas, leaving most unrecognizable. It is explained in a pattern Carl Jung calls the collective unconscious. Blogger Sandra Busby states that Jung compares humans to fish in the ocean; just as we breathe the air of our atmosphere, fish swim in the water. We are so frequently consumed in it, we don’t even know it’s there. Archetypes are everywhere, unconsciously absorbed energy patterns that are used to move humans along to grow and evolve. Due to different cultures and languages, heroes can be conceived in countless ways. The basic idea has been the same since the beginning of time: a hero represents a protector and savior.…

All she wants is to run away with him and save his life and not get caught because people know that “the witch plague” was a total hoax. The significance to the story of her change shows that people do change because of the love they have for whomever they want to be with and that people will do anything to stay alive.

    A witch is defined as a person capable of magical ability. Witches have been feared for their magic for centuries. Societies have shunned witches, put them on trial, and even burned them at the stake. It’s tradition for people to fear what they don’t know about, and for them to dismiss learning things that are different from the typical. Witch hunting was a serious problem for hundreds of years across the globe. I will look at the political aspects of witch hunting and a general overview of witch hunting as it happened in England. Witchcraft has always been associated with Satan or some form of demonic worship, and I will look at that as well. Societies have burned witches at the stake and hung them from trees for a fear of their magic as well as discrimination against those that are different.…

    Salem Witch Trials

    A witch is defined as a person who has made a deal with Satan (Witch-Hunt, 33). It is believed that the witch gave up his/her soul in exchange for the capacity to channel Satan’s power. This power gave the witch the ability to harm his/her victims. A witch was seen as different from others because, he/she used “angry words” and “had an obnoxious mouth” (Witch-Hunt, 34). The witch was believed to feed her pets with her unnatural breasts and was the reason behind deaths of infants (Witch-Hunt, 108). A person whom is believed to be a witch is often associated with ritualistic activities such as voodoo dolls or fortune telling. In fact, the egg in a glass ritual is believed to have started all of the Salem Witch trial accusations. It is though that nine year-old Elizabeth Parris used this seemingly innocent ritual to find out her future. When she witnessed the shape of a coffin in her glass, the odd possession-like actions began happening to her and numerous other young women (The Salem Witch Trials, 12).…

    While I attain all of these characteristics, I also am able to offer more--I am a person with strong opinions, someone who’s not afraid to stand up for what I believe in. I am someone who will go the extra mile to help a friend, to make them smile on a bad day. While intelligence may get you far in life, having an outgoing and sociable personality can help me reach the goals I desire. When I confided in my friends for help as to why I deserve to be in the National Honors Society, they all had the same idea: I am more than just textbooks and good grades, and my warming personality and welcoming attitude is what makes me…

    Women who didn’t act like “proper women” were outcast as witches. For instance, if a woman were not obeying her husband’s every command then she wasn’t playing the expected gender role, therefore she was a witch. Outcasts were different, otherwise they wouldn’t be outcasts. People who were exiled were weird in that they lived life their own way, making people judge and want to get rid of them. If a person who was considered an outcast were using herbs as medicine or staying out late and spending time alone, then they were persecuted as witches. A woman accused of being a witch said that she was pinpointed as being a witch because society saw her as different. She wrote, “some call me witch, and being ignorant of my self, they go about to teach me how to be one” (Doc 5) People were also persecuted for “suspiciously” being selfless. A report of Churchwardens in Gloucestershire, England claimed that a woman, Alice Prabury, “ useth herself suspiciously in the likelihood of a witch, taking upon her not only to help Christian people of diseases strangely happened but also horses and all other beasts.” (Doc 4) Women and men who were less fortunate were those most wrongly persecuted. From a regional and comparative witchcraft study done in 1970, it showed that from 1546-1680, woman who were the wives of laborers were more accused than wives of the wealthier men. (Doc 10) This was suspicious in that society and culture were doing the wrong thing, not those who were persecuted. Women were…

    A person of character is, someone to admire, who sets a good example, who knows the difference between right and wrong. To me no one is good or bad. This is a fact that should be kept in mind when we try to judge a person's overall character. We are all different and complex. I think I show most of the elements a person of good character should show. Not only have I been looked up to and admired, but I try to keep as active as possible (a quality younger students may look up to). Joining different sports, excelling in academics, and joining other extracurricular activities, gives me this opportunity and also demonstrates my reliability. Like a person with a good character I like to help anyone that is in need of a little guidance. I've always been known to make people laugh or feel better when they are down, which seems to me like a person with a great character, and want to better life's sometimes harsh obstacles.…
