Female Villains in Contemporary Popular Culture. Bellatrix Lestrange in the "Harry Potter" Series
Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 2,0, University of Paderborn, language: English, abstract: This term paper examines the origins of the lack of female villains in contemporary popular culture. The thesis aims to explain that female villains are more dangerous because of their sex. In contemporary popular culture the most villains are men.

All of a Sudden
The story is about a tiny piece of the planet Earth. People were quarreling, killing and murdering one another for the personal gains. Availing the opportunity of this injustice and disarray, Satan agitated the flame of fire all around the earth and there was destruction.

Harry Potter and Resistance
Although rule breaking in Harry Potter is sometimes dismissed as a distraction from Harry’s fight against Lord Voldemort, Harry Potter and Resistance makes the case that it is central to the battle against evil. Far beyond youthful hijinks or adolescent defiance, Harry’s rebellion aims to overcome problems deeper and more widespread than a single malevolent wizard. Harry and his allies engage in a resistance movement against the corruption of the Ministry of Magic as well as against the racist social norms that gave rise to Voldemort in the first place. Dumbledore’s Army and the Order of the Phoenix employ methods echoing those utilized by World War II resistance fighters and by the U.S. Civil Rights movement. The aim of this book is to explore issues that speak to our era of heightened political awareness and resistance to intolerance. Its interdisciplinary approach draws on political science, psychology, philosophy, history, race studies, and women’s studies, as well as newer interdisciplinary fields such as resistance studies, disgust studies, and creativity studies.
