Feminist Reading of Harry Potter

The feminist ideals in Harry Potter are most easily seen through the lead female character, Hermione Granger, as she is a manifestation of the author herself within the text. “Hermione is me,” Rowling has said in several interviews, “A caricature of me when I was younger”. Rowling has said that, as a child, “she was perceived as being very bossy and often the brightest one in her class, and those traits she gave to Hermione” (Gladstein 50)

As Rowling made Hermione’s character with many weaknesses, and strength, feminist critics often attack Hermione for her weaknesses, criticizing her for being emotional, bookish, and in driven position by hero or other characters. Hermione carrying purse and find everything one need it on it feminist reader may also raise their question that why only carrying purse with them.

Rowling includes several other strong female characters in her stories; one of the strongest characters in Harry Potter is Professor Minerva McGonagall. Like Hermione, McGonagall is often criticized for being dull, bossy, and for being merely second in command under a male headmaster. However, McGonagall holds a powerful position as headmistress of arguably the most respected house at Hogwarts, Gryffindor.
