Potterversity Episode 71: Potter Meets Molesworth
<div> <p>We're going back to school, and specifically Latin class, on this episode.</p><p>Dr. Mitchell Parks (Knox College) joins us once again to connect classical studies to Harry Potter, but this time, we're not looking as far back as ancient times. Inspired by Mitchell's presentation at the last Harry Potter Academic Conference, we're going to the 1950s to explore the satirical Molesworth books written by Geoffrey Willans and illustrated by Ronald Searle. These novels, narrated by St. Custards schoolboy Nigel Molesworth, parody the British school story genre and feature several names found in Harry Potter.</p><p>We consider the influence Molesworth may have had on Potter, including its humor and portrayal of education. Mitchell is particularly interested in how the study of the ancient world and Latin is presented in the Molesworth books and how that reflects upon our reading of classical echoes in Potter. We think about traditionalism and imperialism in both texts via their use of Latin.</p><p>Moving into modern times, we discuss parallels between methods of teaching Latin at these fictional schools and current debates around artificial intelligence in the classroom.</p></div>
