Harry Potter and the Sacred Text

Delight: The Hungarian Horntail (Book 4, Chapter 19)

Vanessa and Casper explore the theme of "delight" in chapter nineteen of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire." This week we discuss Harry's vulnerability with Sirius, Charlie's love of Hagrid, and Madame Maxime's potential manipulation. Our question this week is: What's the purpose of delight? 
Next week we're reading chapter twenty, The First Task, through the theme of opportunity. Thanks this week to Kelly Petrauskas for our voicemail. 
We have officially launched our <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/harry-potter-and-the-sacred-text-2018-crowdfunder#/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">fundraiser</a>. If you can, please support us so we can read Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix!

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.
