Discourse on the purity of Blood and Harry Potter: How do the novels play with the thesis of pure blood (Master Race) giving an anti-thesis by belonging protagonists to half-blood / Mud-blood? What sort of synthesis is sought in this discourse in Harry Potter series?
The title itself “Harry Potter Half blood prince” talks about importance of purity of blood. From the very beginning we can find there importance of purity of blood they called “Mud blood” to whom, who have mix blood. Slytherin is name of one house of Hogwarts which belongs to pure blooded witches and wizards only. It shows an intensification of the cultural tension between wizards born of non-magical parents and wizards with fully magical blood.
Voldemort believed in pure blooded magicians and because of which he ordered to killed mud blooded people and want to rule. We can connect this with Hitler etc who also wants to do like this but in any ways this cannot be fair practice. (christiaansen)
