Theme of choice and Chance:
Theme of
choice and chance we see in every series of Harry Potter. In the Very first
book of the series begins with Lily’s Choice to protect her son at the cost of
her own life. The question of choice v/s chance run throughout the Harry Potter
series. The question of chance v/s choice appears first at the end of “Chamber
of secrets”, when Riddle/Voldemort tells Harry that “It was merely a luckey
chance that saved you”. Dumbledore
subsequently tells Harry in chamber of secrets that,
“It is
our choices , that show what we truly are far more than our abilities”.
Throughout
the series, Voldemort continues to insist on chance as the cause of his
downfall. Dumbledore insists on the importance of personal choice in
determining outcome, rather than either chance or fate. The character of harry
potter always choose choice in entire series of the novel “Harry Pottere”. For example
in part – 4 Harry Potter and the Globlet of Fire” Harry mack choice to save his
friend’s life.
Over and
over again in the novels it is made clear that it is a person’s choices and
action that are the defining elements of his moral chracter. Neville Longttom
chooses not to step aside so that Harry, Ron and Hermione can leave their
dormitory to go looking for the sorcerer’s stone and In deathly Hallows he
chooses to fight on at Hogwarrts even after the death eaters tacke over.
The choices made in the novels are not all for
the good but some time it is also for the bad thing. For example Peter
Pettigrew make the choice to betray his friends and thus forever casts his lot
with the forces of evil. Tom’s mother Chooses her own death instead of staying
alive to care for her son. Draco malfoy chooses to accept voldemort’s
assignment and becames a death eater himself.
So in choice
v/s chance all character make their own choice rather it was good or bad thing.
Thank you…
