Okay, my friend and I go to a school that has a thing called 'Lit Circles'. There's a 一覧 of books, and Twilight is on there, but not Harry Potter. My friend thought this was totally wrong, and wrote a super long persuasive essay to our English teacher about it. This was all hers, and I can't take credit for how awesome it is :)
Why Twilight Should Be Replaced によって Harry Potter in Lit Circles
Two 本 sit on the shelf in front of you; on the cover of the first, あなた see two pale hands holding a deep red apple. The 秒 features a young boy on a broomstick, in midair as he desperately chases a small, fluttering golden ball. Twilight, a simple 'love story', and Harry Potter, a thrilling tale of a man's struggle to end a war that's tearing his ホーム apart, are two stories that are often compared and contrasted in today's society. Though the two book series are endlessly different, the die-hard ファン in today's society often feud over if their お気に入り is better または not. Different variables, such as fans, writing, characters, and plots strongly affect the arguments of the 'Twi-hards' and the 'Potterheads'. However, it is apparent that Twilight is not up to the standards that our school boasts to uphold, and Harry Potter should replace it on the choices 一覧 for Literary Circles.
The most 人気 argument is that the characters in Twilight are well-rounded and dynamic, but that the お気に入り of Harry Potter, like Draco Malfoy and Luna Lovegood, are flat and commonplace. However, the characters of Twilight are unrealistic; Bella Swan, a self-conscious girl, somehow managed to become the prettiest, most 人気 girl in school on her first day. Edward Cullen is described as perfect, gorgeous, and a complete gentleman, and Stephenie Meyer fails to point out any character flaws. He's the 'Golden Boy', and he fails to change throughout the entire story. Rosalie Hale is the only character in the story worth while; she is the only one who shows deep emotion, and a tragic past has morphed her into a dynamic, interesting character. In Harry Potter, all the characters are well-rounded and riveting in their own way. For instance, Harry Potter, the main character, has quite a few flaws; he insists on working alone, and constantly tries to push the ones he loves away. He also has his positive attributes; he's メリダとおそろしの森 (which is why he was placed in Gryffindor House), and he isn't in it for the glory; he fights for the greater good of his community, and even in the face of certain death (In the Forbidden Forest in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows), he chooses to rise to the challenges that lie ahead. His friends, Ron and Hermione, are also unique, yet realistic. Ron, for example, has a bit of an anger problem. In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, he and Harry get into a fight because Ron is jealous that Harry got chosen as a Champion for Hogwarts. He accuses Harry of cheating, and gets angry when Harry denies it. Ron, too, has his positive qualities; he's a good Keeper, and he is undyingly loyal and brave. There really are no dull characters; they each have something that makes them stand out from the mundane, unlike the commonplace inhabitants of Meyer's version of Forks, Washington.
Another argument Twilight ファン present is that Twilight contains a deeper emotional tone. However, Harry Potter evokes emotions of ファン everywhere. Through Harry's eyes, we can feel and experience what he experiences; the loss of a mother, a father, a godfather, and a mentor. We can share the horror of watching people get hurt and die, some of them old, and some of them as young as sixteen years old (Collin Creevy). In Twilight, only three emotions are present; anger, romantic love, and parental love. Anger is hardly present in Twilight. Meyer shows small signs of it here and there; Edward growling at anyone who as much as looks at Bella, Bella throwing tiny, angry fits every time she doesn't get her way, and when Charlie thinks that Edward got Bella pregnant in Breaking Dawn. Parental 愛 is hardly there, as well. Charlie is seen as gruff, and unwilling to portray emotion toward Bella, even in the happiest of times. In Breaking Dawn, when he starts to cry at Bella's wedding, he hides in the corner, unwilling to 表示する his face. Renee, her emotional mother, is gone for most of the series and only shows up on very rare occasions. Romantic 愛 is present almost too much; on almost every page, あなた see something about how gorgeous and wonderful and perfect Edward is.
In fact, Bella's feelings toward Edward are もっと見る obsessive. He consumes her every thought, and she can hardly breathe without Edward によって her side. Some people say this is romantic, but it's borderline pathetic. Despite his obvious control issues and anger problems, Bella continues to think that he's the most amazing thing on the planet. She even turns her back on her friends, and though he coldly and emotionlessly left her alone and crying in the forest, she begs for him to take her back. She constantly defies and disrespects her father, just to get もっと見る time with Edward. In Harry Potter, Rowling's little cast of characters think for themselves, and the only time 愛 like Edward's and Bella's is shown in Harry Potter is when Romilda Vane slips Ron a 愛 potion, though it's intended または Harry. Slughorn says himself that Amortentia, the most powerful 愛 potion in the world cannot produce real, genuine love, just potent obsession. Romantic 愛 is still very present in Harry Potter; Rowling portrays couples perfectly. Ginny and Harry share a realistic relationship, and Ron and Hermione demonstrate the very common, very awkward feeling of falling in 愛 with your best friend. Their relationships are something that all ファン can relate to, not something for readers to fantasize and obsess over.
Another claim made によって Twihards is that Meyer got her idea from a dream, a subconscious message, and that it makes it have a deeper meaning. Dreams 表示する us our subconscious desires; perhaps at the time Meyer wanted a bit もっと見る romance in her life. However, Rowling was watching the rolling hills of Ireland and let her imagination wander. It took true creativity for Harry Potter to take shape, unlike Twilight. Also, Rowling's 書く style is もっと見る advanced; Twilight is at a fourth grade 読書 level. Harry Potter, while ranked higher, can still be understood によって a wide variety of ages. It also has deeper meaning. The only thing あなた wonder about in Twilight is who Bella will choose in the end, and even that was fairly obvious to all readers. In Harry Potter, あなた have to really think to come to conclusions. Will Harry defeat the Dark Lord in the end? Is Dumbledore actually dead, または did he just fake his death to get the upper hand on You-Know-Who and his Death Eater Army? Just exactly what side is Snape on? Will there ever be peace in the wizarding world? Harry Potter induces thinking, while Twilight just lets readers absorb information without getting in actual thought. Also, Twilight ファン say that as Twilight is easier to read, もっと見る age groups can enjoy the novels. However, Rowling released a book of children stories, titled Tales of Beedle the Bard, in late 2008.
Also, Twilight has very elementary vocabulary. Harry Potter has an abundance of new words for students to learn, and it can even teach us a little bit about other countries outside of Northern America. In Twilight, あなた learn about a rainy town in Washington state that teaches あなた nothing about the rest of the world (I don't include Italy and the Volturi; あなた learn nothing of Italian culture または history); it stays restricted to the soggy little town. Harry Potter branches out to different parts of the globe. England, France, and Bulgaria are all mentioned in the books, and あなた can come out of the Harry Potter experience having learned some useful things.
Also, Twilight has a strong undercurrent of anti-feminism. In the books, Bella decides as a girl, it's her job to do all cooking and cleaning while her father sits on the couch, drinking ビール and watching sports. This gives the impression that the place for a woman is the kitchen, and women have fought hard throughout history to repress such anti-feminist attitudes, and unfortunately, Twilight is a perfect example of the repression we woman experience daily, despite the fact that we are equals and have rights. Also, Edward controls every aspect of Bella's life, and therefore Twilight teaches girls to let men abuse and dominate them in the relationship. In today's society, women are already extremely repressed; a woman makes seventy cents to every dollar a man makes. We really shouldn't allow Twilight; it's forcing us to step back from the immense progress we've been making over the years.
As well as all things mentioned prior, Twilight ファン seem to think that the Twilight Saga has better villains. On the contrary; Harry Potter's villain, the infamous Voldemort, also known as 'You-Know-Who', has depth. あなた learn about his past, how he came to be, how he shed his former self in an attempt to escape a past he so truly despises. In Twilight, the original villain, James, has no background; the only reason he's bad is because he's bad. There's no back-story, no woeful tale that allows the readers to delve into the minds of the antagonists. あなた simply here he wants to hurt the protagonist; no reason why, no interesting, tragic past. The reader is supposed to simply assume that he's just bad, without even getting the full story. The Volturi are a power-hungry clan of ヴァンパイア that hide behind their cronies' gifts, 表示中 an immense amount of cowardice. Victoria is a revenge-driven murderer, and perhaps the only semi-villainous character in the series.
Twilight also teaches young adults that using others for personal gain is okay. In New Moon, after Edward leaves, Bella is crushed. Her intense obsession with Edward is unhealthy, and when he's gone, she suffers from massive withdrawal. To get over her pain, she turns to Jacob Black, a boy from an Indian reserve not to far from Bella's ホーム in Forks. After spending time with him, Bella notices that the presence of a boy in her life is comforting, and uses him almost like morphine; just something to numb the pain. After a while, Jacob develops a 愛 for her, and Bella, instead of letting him down gently and giving him distance to ease the pain, continues to use him to get rid of her loneliness. This, too, shows a tone of anti-feminism. Bella seems to think that the only way to be happy in life is to have the company of a man. Instead of being strong and independent, a good role model, Meyer decides to have Bella desperately cling to any boy she can get her hands on. This does not set a good example for the multitude of impressionable teens at our school. In Harry Potter, あなた see plenty of good, strong female characters; Hermione, Luna, Ginny, and Molly Weasley, to name a few. They all 表示する strong examples of feminism. For instance, Hermione deals with the constant teasing and name-calling によって the Slytherins, but she just holds her head high and doesn't let the opinion of others affect her everyday life. That is just one of the many ways that Harry Potter teaches young adults to be confident and sure in themselves.
In addition, the argument of first person point of view versus third person point of view. While both 書く styles work well, in first person, あなた only really learn about the feelings and emotions of the protagonist. In third person, あなた get to see もっと見る of the other characters, learn of other things going on in the story. あなた can stray away from the main character for a moment and see what other events, significant または not, that can affect the plot. For example, in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, あなた see a scene that doesn't include Harry. He is mentioned, but he does not ever make an appearance; あなた get to see what things are going on outside the narrator's life at the moment in time. In Twilight, Meyer had to completely change point of 閲覧数 halfway through Breaking Dawn, which can often confuse the reader at first. Rowling doesn't make this befuddling move.
Lastly, Rowling makes the 本 much もっと見る realistic in a lot of aspects. In Harry Potter, あなた can experience the harsh realities of prejudice, death, and war. In Twilight, Stephenie creates a sugar-coated world of happiness and unfortunately, ignorance. In every book, Bella faces a war, yet despite the constant danger and feuding; nobody dies, または even gets very hurt. In Harry Potter, readers and characters experience the crushing, though realistic blow, of their お気に入り characters dying; Sirius Black, Albus Dumbledore, and Lily and James Potter all fall at the hand of the antagonists, and they're just a few out of many. Also, in the wizarding world, we find a startling amount of discrimination and prejudice. The Pure bloods use slander and harsh words against muggle-borns (called Mudbloods) and pure-blood families who affiliate with them ('blood-traitors'). Also, most of the wizarding world looks down on other magical creatures, like centaurs, giants, and werewolves. For example, Remus Lupin is forced to resign simply because he's a werewolf (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban). This bares a remarkable resemblance to reality, and teaches readers もっと見る about the world around them. However, at the end of the last book, Bella is sitting on the ソファー, ソファ with her family, thinking about how wonderful it is that despite the Volturi's death march to Forks, they all managed to stay alive (Breaking Dawn). Even when an army of powerful ヴァンパイア bent on destroying the Cullens come to Washington, Bella says a few things, and as if be magic, the Cullens are 安全, 安全です and everyone is 安全, 安全です and sound. This isn't how reality works, and to teach kids otherwise is wrong.
Twilight is a bad influence on us impressionable teens, while Harry Potter teaches us that confidence and bravery get あなた far in life. We should ban 本 that have negative affects on the youth of America and support 本 with good themes and messages. Together, as a nation, we can shape a better, もっと見る confident generation.
