Harry Potter and his various adventures

This abstract was translated from Harry Potter e le sue varie avventure
 
One of the aspects that the controversial story of the criticism has fed on Harry Potter, concern the effects that the fruition of the content of the texts of the Rowling provokes on the little boy and on its personality. And'' important to underline that, in the saga, socialization has had an important role, even if criticism has mostly thought about appraising the work rigorously concerning himself/herself/itself to academic canons penalizing so the total and deep understanding of the testo.Il disposition material is vast and would be me impossible to gather these aspects for every book of the saga: this way I have decided to bring in analysis those in which such trial is more evident, or rather Harry potter and the Stone Filosofale, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and Harry Potter and The order of the Phoenix.
During the carrying out of the narrative action, Harry faces three passages "sociological" fundamental.
The first situation is that that is underlined in the prologue, in the first book, in which, the small maghetto, to be unfit (almost pirandelliano) isolated and not recognizable in the life in house Dursley, becomes instead it departs of a group, represented by the School of Magic and Witchcraft of Hogwarts, and, more particularly, from the group "befriend her" formed with Ron, Hermione and the Grifondoros. Interesting and loads of meaning are the escamotageses that the Rowling uses for delineating this affiliation (the Speaking Hat is not anything else other than the literary and fantastic representation of the social etichettamento as the Team of Quiddicht that confirms the predestination of Harry, in how much the youngest Seeker of the history of Hogwarts is). Among various mishaps and magic adventures that know by now all, he reaches the second passage: of it the order of the Phoenix you/they are introduced two new formal groups (because formed by adult people), the Mangiamortes and The order. But before this, Harry lives another upsetting, discovering that Sirius Black, introduced The Prisoner of Azkaban of it, it is his/her godfather, and really with him it introduces in the network a new group, that of parent - child, absent previously because of the precocious death of the parents of Harry.
You comes so to the last pages of the sixth book, in which the destiny of Harry is defined, and therefore the third one and last small passaggio:il (by now almost eighteen year-old) hero doesn''t have a guide anymore, considering that Sirius has been inclined over the veil from Beatrix Lestrange in the fifth episode and Silent murdered by the doppiogiochista Piton. And it is really for these deaths that Harry embraces his/her hero destiny and returns in a new situation of isolation setting himself/herself/itself to head of the order and deciding to go alone to the search of the last Horcruxes to destroy Voldemort. The difference from the preceding situation of isolation is that in this third phase every action of the boy is absolutely glorificante, considering that the line up are all well defined ones and the characters you/they have assumed definitive roles, for which every gesture esula from the simple human interaction and it connects him to others in a superior project for the definitive defeat of He who you/he/she must not be name (shortly... Harry becomes almost selfish towards the affections, his only objective is to defeat the Evil, not without sacrifice however).
Although this analysis is purely tied up to a sociological formation, I believe that literary criticism has lost a pò of sight the true nature of the saga: the fantastic one doesn''t have only an evasive function, but it perhaps represents the simplest and comprehensible way to show what the correct values are to pursue for becoming best men, because no, just as Harry Potter, the small great hero of the XXI century.
