3)Confronting reality by reading fantasy:
Harry Potter series not only to entertain but to provide readers with a real-world moral framework that explicitly encompasses race-related issues. Fantasy story could be the reality of our own world. In this series, we can find author tells many problems like Educations systems ( Practical vs Theory), Politics, Master-slave relations, Racial, caste and class problems ( Blood issues) etc, in the terms of fantasy.
The characters are very much realistic which represents the universal emotions, moral values and so on. Harry is being raised by an aunt and uncle who are dumb, stiff and uncomprehending and who treat him with stingy cruelty. Harry is being raised by an aunt and uncle who are dumb, stiff and uncomprehending and who treat him with stingy cruelty. so here we can see that the whole modernist-realist tradition is about the self-observing the world around you—sensing how other it is, how alien it is, how different it is to what’s going on inside you. In fantasy, that gets turned inside out. The landscape you inhabit is a mirror of what’s inside you. The stuff inside can get out, and walk around, and take the form of places and people and things and magic. And once it’s outside, then you can get at it. You can wrestle it, make friends with it, kill it, seduce it. Fantasy takes all those things from deep inside and puts them where you can see them, and then deal with them.
