Description
After the release of Deathly Hallows, JK Rowling spoke about the "religious undertones" of the series, the Christian influence, and the textual evidence of her struggle with faith in regards to "life after death." There is nowhere that these influences are more evident than in book seven, and there are very strong parallels both to the Christ story and to its Narnian retelling in CS Lewis's classic book The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. This presentation will explore the power of self-sacrifice on behalf of others as presented in the two stories. Mr. Prinzi will analyze, compare, and contrast Aslan's death and resurrection and Harry's "death" and return.
