Harry Potter and the Sacred Text

It’s the English class you didn't know you missed and the meaningful conversations you didn't know you craved. Join Vanessa Zoltan and Casper ter Kuile as they bring thought, reflection and laughter to Harry Potter; not just as novels, but as instructive and inspirational texts that will teach us about our own lives. Relive the magic chapter by chapter as they explore themes such as commitment, revenge and forgiveness. This podcast creates time in your week to think about life’s big questions. Because reading fiction doesn’t just help us escape the world, it helps us live in it.

Rebellion: Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback (Book 1, Chapter 14)

Vanessa and Casper explore the theme of rebellion in chapter fourteen of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. They discuss Casper’s high school antics, Hagrid’s lack of self-care, and whether the ends justify the means when Hermione manipulates Hagrid to gain information about the Sorcerer’s Stone.
