Lit Analysis #2

Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets by JK Rowling


  1. A young boy is thrust into many dangerous situations as he spends his second year at hogwarts. Strange events occur during the year ranging from paralyzed cats to paralyzed friends, it is up to Harry to find out the reason for the events and put a stop to them.
  2. The theme of the novel is friendship, that companionship trumps all evil. 
  3. The tone in the novel is the fear of the unknown. When they found Hermione paralyzed with her eyes open holding a mirror.
  4. The lit elements are symbolism, Imagery, and Allegory. For symbolism it is the sword of gryffindor, a symbol of good, mimicking the story of king author on the way Harry gets the sword. For allegory Tom riddle's book serves that purpose and it also is a foreshadow on the rest of the series.
