The theme of Love and Death:

The theme of Love and Death: How does Harry Potter make use of age old theme of Love of the dead as well as living as protecting armour? How does Harry Potter deal with the concept of Death as something inevitable?






"But know this; the ones that love us never really leave us."




Harry Accept the death because the  love he felt of his friends, the love Snape had for Harry’s mother in his memories, his love of Dumbledore, the love of Hogwarts. Harry ‘s Acceptance of death shows his love towards his friends and Hogwarts school.Harry Potter demonstrates that to understand the meaning of life, we must accept and praise our inevitable death.Harry had the presence of love from a young age which led him to accept the virtue. His parents sacrificed themselves to save Harry from the murderous hands of Voldemort.Harry’s acceptance of the death is universal truth that allows him to embrace love and recognize the sacrifice and defeat Voldemort. The Love of Mother remains the protection for Harry because of her love Voldemort not able to Killed Harry. Love and Death are interconnected with each other.



Voldemort's inability to understand the power of love , misunderstood the power of this protection. The tragic paradox of Voldemort is that he sacrifice his life for immortality . He gives up humanity , capacity of love for an chance at an empty everlasting existence.
