When Hogwarts officially became a deputy ministerial university

Leif 2021-10-13 13:05:42

Although the first few parts of "Harry Potter" have clearly pointed out the existence of a "department" above the prestigious Hogwarts, Hogwarts is probably nothing more than a subordinate university. But before, it seemed that schools were all out of a state of autonomy to "listen to the government". Although schools do not exist in a vacuum, government workers will also understand their limitations and give schools proper autonomy. But in this episode, the beginning is that the government directly persecuted the heretical students who told the truth, and then dispatched politically reliable cadres to the school where the principals tended to be ZY-like. When superficial and artificial "from the Ministry" officials (why such people are often so-and-so dormant aunts) settled in the self-governing and honorable universities of the past, everything unfolded as familiar: loyalty to the superiors and safeguarding the safety of the Ministry became An important ethical requirement; prohibiting courses that do not conform to the taste of the government; enacting clear rules and precepts; publicly humiliating professors who are majestic among students; expelling professors who make bureaucrats uncomfortable; suppressing the atmosphere of freedom in the school (whether it is speech, entertainment or clothing); It is forbidden to spontaneously organize student organizations and foster student cadres who supervise classmates who do not follow their words and deeds; if necessary, students may be punished physically. As for students who violate the will of their backs and organize a group that can understand their own abilities, it is naturally a reactionary organization that usurped power and seized power. The respected and respected old principal dared not speak in front of the bureau-level cadres who came from the ministry. He had no choice but to hang the crown. A conscientious professor could resist passively, but he could not control the mighty power of the big brother and big sister. . Umbridge has a famous saying that is well versed in centralism: "To question me is to question the ministry, that is, to be disloyal to the minister!". Iron Fist swept the fallen leaves in the mid-autumn mid-autumn campus of the backward campus, famous paintings fell off the wall, and the proud and independent spirit drifted in the school. Could Rowling pay tribute to her fellow countryman George Orwell? This is something that the "Insociation" depicted in "1984" did not have, but it is a scene with the same effect. At the end of the film, it is natural that evil does not suppress the righteousness, but the human tragedy does not lie in that evil energy suppresses the righteousness, but that even if the evil energy does not suppress the righteousness, you can't easily know when the days when the evil is overthrown will end. When the university was controlled by people who did not believe Voldemort appeared, the rubble on the floor after the Ministry of Magic's fierce battle was enough to eloquently declare the Ministry's takeover policy of Hogwarts bankrupt. But if it was Voldemort's people who took over the Ministry, even if Voldemort had already disturbed the world, and even if Hogwarts were still held by non-Voldemortians, the gloomy days are still far from over. Their catastrophe is far from over.
