"There is a voluminous literature on magic. The earliest studies were those of Judaic and Christian scholars concerned with the relationship of magic to their faiths, both as relics of paganism and as heresy. During the latter part of the 19th century, anthropologists entered the field with the aim of analyzing magic and its part in the evolution of the world's religions."


Please name a book concerning magic, and briefly report on its contents...

In the upcoming years to their induction into the full priesthood, several of the alocoytes would randomly, and savagely, attack the others. Many people believe this is because the potions had side effects on some individals. As far as can be interpreted from close study of the initation rooms, a subject had to undergo three trials, or tests. One was a four way battle between possible alocoytes, leaving two victorious. The other two were sacrificed. The second test was to get across a pool of steaming liquid(type unknown) by any means and the third took part between the two victors from the first match. An epty room with a pedestal at one end, on which was a staff. The first to get the staff won, although as they entered they had a choice of magical weapons, some of which lie in the collection of my father. the failed student had the choice to go through the four year alocoyte process again, let themself be sacrificed, or leave the priesthood althogether. Most left, and although they had failed, became prominent figurews in the societies of the civilisation.

Laura walked to the front of teh classrom to turn in her assignment. she didn't know how anyone could find this subject boring. she thought it was extreamly interesting.

Hogwarts a history
This book is about how hogwarts was started, and what had gone on their since. It contains important information about the castle itself, the founders of hogwarts, and the chamber of secrets. It pretty much explains all the mysteries about the school that any student could want to know

Dissapointing Laura. However, you may have one point for handing it in on time.

Edward sighed. why couldn't he be good at all his lessons, like Jasmine?

Hogwarts: An Unhidden History, by Hermione Granger


Continuing her effort for S.P.E.W, Miss Granger has re-written Hogwarts: a History to include the trials and truths of the House-Elves. Whether the House-Elves are happy about this is uncertain, but the proceeds have raised enough money for another S.P.E.W leaflet to be published.

"A magician is one who practices magic, sometimes considered the same as a sorcerer or witch. Conjurers are also sometimes called magicians, reflecting a historical confusion whereby legerdemain was considered to involve the supernatural. The name derives from the magus, an ancient Persian priest, and the cognate maghdim, a Chaldean term meaning wisdom and philosophy.

Though magic may theoretically be morally neutral, and many self-styled practitioners have claimed so, magicians have throughout European history usually been feared for their powers of wreaking evil. In some societies, the magician is typically an accepted personage whose help may be sought to accomplish a goal or ward off evil."


Research how the stereotype of "wizard" has changed over the last 1000 years.
