Cat, Rat, and Dog
May. 17th, 2011 01:07 pmBack before Deathly Hallows came out, I wrote an essay on some possible clues that JKR was trying to compare Dumbledore to Richard III. Whether she meant it or not, I have no idea - maybe she was just randomly scattering bits of anti-Yorkist poetry and white boar imagery around for kicks. But it's interesting to look back and see how well it works to support that prediction about Harry getting some history lessons that cause him to doubt Dumbledore's entire character were. Which was pretty much accurate (even if JKR tried to put all the doubts back in the box at the end).
