Technically underage magic is not supposed to be done at all, even when not in the presence of a muggle. But yes, there was an exception for self-defense, or defense of another. And that raises the question of why Fudge bothered to emphasize Harry's use of magic in front of Dudley, since that had nothing to do with whether or not Harry was underage. And since Dudley was already aware of magic, and knew that Harry was a wizard, it could not be said to violate the statute of magical secrecy. Any more than the owls delivering letters to the Dursleys, or any number of other incidents where magical things were shown to them.
@EricasTouch Жыл бұрын
The reason that Fudge bothered to try Harry for it was because he had already been accused of a Hover Charm back in Chamber of Secrets which was in fact cast by Dobby the House Elf. Harry had gotten a warning that if anymore magic was detected, the trial, possible expulsion, and wand snapping would follow. Fudge tried to cling to that to make himself look good while denying that Voldemort was back to make Harry and Dumbledore look like fools which in turn backfired on Fudge when Voldemort showed up in the Ministry.

Given the Underage magic restriction, I'm curious about Hermione's line to Ron on the Hogwarts Express prior to their 1st year. "I've only tried a few simple spells, but they've all worked for me." Given what we know of Hermione, I imagine she read each of her school books cover to cover right after leaving Diagon Alley. It's reasonable to assume she then might have practiced some of the spells in the "Standard Book of Spells". How does this worK? We know it's not accidental magic as she demonstrates a spell on Harry's glasses. Further, what about students practicing during the summer holiday? Don't McGonagall and Flitwick allude to this somewhere? How about Harry using spells like "lumos" to read? This may have been only in the movie, but it did cause me to wonder if there are certain spells that are more permissible than others, though I would imagine any spell has the potential to reveal the Wizarding World to muggles.
@Molotover Жыл бұрын
On the point of Hermione practicing before the first school year, I have personally always assumed that the Trace is placed on young witches and wizards when they first arrive at their magical school, whichever it ends up being. If that weren't the case, I don't really know of any other unifying moment that they all go through that would distinguish someone to be "old enough to get the Trace".

@Molotover Жыл бұрын
@@Deezy_Ankh I of course don't have set in stone anwsers, but owls seem to also know how to locate adult witches and wizards just fine, so I don't really think they use the trace to function. For how Hagrid and Dumbledore know of the kids locations, the Hogwarts founders enchanted the Quill of Acceptance and Book of Admittance to keep track of every child showing any signs of magical abilities, and deem them accepted to the school, so I would imagine it also provides the details for where the invitation letter would have to be sent. As to wether this particular magic is based on the trace, no one is permitted in the tower with the book and quill since no one in modern times knows how it works, and besides, the ministry was formed a good bit after the founding of Hogwarts, so I doubt they are directly the same thing, but might be similar.
@davidschmitz4300 Жыл бұрын
When Harry was put on trial for it, the big key was that he performed the magic in the presence of a Muggle. So his lumos spells when he was alone, or Hermione's practice presumably in Diagon Alley or even on the train would not have violated the law since there were no Muggles present.

7:20 Our view of goblins is too limited to judge the law as unjust. In the little we have seen war with goblins has been long and bloody. Goblins have shown a propensity for cruelty and control of magic that when combined with wands may have been quite adequate reasons to forbid goblin access. From again the limited view it appears that the goblin wars stopped about the same time they were forbidden wands. Remember too, goblins are not men; most of them would consider it an insult to be treated as peers to men. They think and reason in a distinct and alien manner and you can not judge from our current view point the law to be just or unjust.

Pretty sure goblins would immediately declare war on humanity if they actually all got ahold of wands. Wands give humans only a slight advantage over the other magical hominids when well trained in it's use. A goblin just picking up a wand would pose a challenge for several skilled wizards at once. I don't think goblins have ever shown any care for humans at any point in the lore, and active disdain throughout most of their history. If I'm not mistaken, muggle weapons were more effective against them until wands and staves were developed, Elves are a bit less vindictive and even with wands wouldnt pose much of a threat to humans. They wouldn't have much interest in gaining power through training in any case, so they're an afterthought in the legislation. At worst, a cruel master gets their comeuppance. They already have excellent magic control and channeling it through a stick will be little more than an inconvenience for them. I can hear the conversation now, "What would Kreacher do with a wand, sir? Shall I clean it?" - "I want you to use it" - "For what sir?" - "Magic!" - "Kreacher can already do magic, sir" - "This will make it stronger" - "Oh, it must be very heavy if Kreacher's magic cannot lift it." Then there are the other magical creatures nobody considers. Centaurs also aren't allowed to have wands, but like elves have little interest in them. Giants could use a staff as a wand, but probably couldn't learn the discipline. Acromantula could probably make use of them too, there's a terrifying thought. What I find curious is why people only ever advocate for the one race who looks enviously at the wands to be given the wands. I'm the first person I've ever seen bring up the centaurs. That might just be anecdotal, but it's always goblins. Don't forget, it's Hagrid that first tells us their nature, and he looks for the good in all magical creatures. Anyone gonna try tell me Hagrid is a goblin racist? There's an uneasy peace between goblin and wizard kind in the hogwarts universe, and it's not being maintained by the goblins. It's a good job it's fiction because clueless do-gooders would accidentally cause the enslavement of all mankind to forever make wands for our diminutive overlords.

I guess why Rappaport's law is present. (It's pury my theory) There are 11 main schools (smaller ones aren't important), and they're gathering muggle-raised students from the territories where conflicting muggle groups live(judging by that Harry Potter school mapping) Meanwhile, pureblood mages are all pureblood mages, with no inside-group discrimination. If non-purebloods were that united, they would be impossible to control and discriminate. But when "lower castes" aren't united, this way, since school, everyone is "at own place": 1. United pureblood human houses 2. [sunni vs shiite vs israelite] vs halfbloods 3. Beings (even more various and with own psychology and magic systems) 4. Beasts (some of which are sentient, but for various reasons, disregarded) In USA, problematic existence of "Untermensh" was solved the other way, that didn't involve slavery or genocide: by complete isolation. It got especially important when ppl have grown more united there, unlike middle east school Durmstrang have done other way: mudbloods are allowed in schools only as lab rats for darker magic. If I'm right, the indian/chinese 11th school must be either 1. Totalitarian to the non-purebloods, like outright genocide and/or slavery 2. Have no centralized school, being kind of third-world magic community with primitive education and no valuable artifacts 3. Both

I wonder if Hagrid created blast ended screwts by flauting the law of creating new creatures like that (they don't seem to be a creature listed in Newt's Fantastic Beasts book). If so, it seems the Ministry of Magic wasn't too bothered by it, as they used some of them in the Third Task.

I believe the law on Werewolf conduct and registry is a modern version of the trials that werewolves had to go through in the Puritan period. Which is curious, as the witches and wizards received such treatment at the hands of Muggles. So you'd think they'd have a closer relationship, not a segregated one.

Some of these laws just suck in my opinion Like the Animagus Registry, and the dueling ban, like smh come on Failing to register as an animagus and going to Azkaban for it just seem a bit harsh isn’t it? And why try to ban dueling, it could be a fun pass time, and be a potential sport..why try to get rid of it?

The trial was so stupid. "underage magic". It was a patronus charm, not like he was trying crazy potentially harmful magic. He does worse things to his family with his magic when he was much younger and that's no problem.

Idk If any cannon Harry Potter content exists about this idea, but once the muggles gain advanced technology and weapons that can potentially substitute for magic what are the wizard worlds opinion on this? How do they feel knowing that while they have magic , muggles have nucular weapons and radiation , hypersonic jets , the internet , ability to perform space exploration, fully automatic machine guns, smart phones and other incredible advanced yet compact devices, Bluetooth , virtual reality , and so many others that make magic (or at least most of the common spells ) look like a joke ? Do they feel threatened ? Would they try to advance magics evolution to keep even footing ? Would they think it’s a new dangerous type of magic and try to regulate it with obvious failure ?Or would they simply just not understand what any of it was and brush it of ? I don’t remember the exact movie details perfectly but I do remember a wizard in muggle studies (I think it was Ron’s dad) asking Harry what the purpose of a rubber duck was🤨 I’m certain I’m completely wrong and I apologize if I am but if I am right like seriously … it’s bad enough that wizard or not your still human , your not THAT detached from muggles , but somone specializing in MUGGLE STUDIES!? Makes me think they are in for a while mess with there horrific lack of understanding

Personally if I had the ability, I would cancel the law prohibit Elves and Goblins from caring a wand. Because by allowing them to have a wand it would have created a bond of trust which was so important especially with Goblins. Now the dueling law I can understand- They probably don't want it to be unsupervised and witches and wizards will act like it's the wild west and start to kill each other in the streets. Dueling competitions is a thing. Now as for the unforgivable curses, I wonder if a wizard or a witch will be forgiven for using them in a case of life risking situation or a higher goal. For example- Harry had to use the Impirius curse for breaking into Gringots bank for getting the cup horcrux. He had no choice otherwise the mission would have failed, but he did no damage with it only what's necessary. He had Travers under his control a prized DE and he didn't command him to kill himself, he ordered him to hide while he controlled a Goblin to get to the vault and open it. As for the status of secrecy I can understand that because of the time period. Think about the obsession of Salazar Slytherin not to accept Muggle Born students it made sense in a way duo to the period in which he lived. He saw witches and wizards being slaughtered by Muggles so it wasn't for no reason, Salazar Slytherin wasn't a bad person he just saw things in a single way.

I think the Crups law needs to go. In this day and age of scientific understanding pertaining to genetics and mutation, a fork-tailed dog wouldn't be especially noteworthy. There are mutations producing two-headed snakes, extra fingers, webbed fingers, and tails in humans, and other oddities. There's no need to clip the tail of a crups when it can be passed off as a genetic anomaly. Yet another reason the wizarding world needs to keep up with muggle science and social progress.

Actually that’s probably giving her too much credit, she just didn’t care about the implications, because to include topics and mirrors to real life like that, you must first respect and understand that, then cover that within your series. You don’t create a world like that, just to tell a fun story that involves none of those themes what so ever. You can’t have a universe like that, then just ignore those topics.

@@shinrapresident7010 Is it not stupid to include such topics when you proceed to ignore the implications and impact those things would actually have on the characters and universe you have created? When you could’ve told the exact same story without most of that, and thus made it not less confusing when you do ignore the topics you put in the series? Seems like a pretty stupid idea to me.

It’s a pretty simple thing to understand, if you make a universe with complex social issues, you can’t just ignore them. Simple as that. It’s not my fault the author of the series is a horrible person irl, and is stupid when it comes to this element of world building. Bold assumptions you’ve made, all of which were wrong, if you assumed less, you’d be a lot smarter as well.

Many laws are bad ideas, just like in the real world. Imagine if there was a law that said you're not allowed to do math outside of school, if you're under 17. And of course, the law gets violated all the time without consequence - and not just by accident, such as the vanishing glass, or Aunt Marge. Hermione's "oculus reparo", and Harry's "lumos maxima", etc., and all the various uses of magical items outside of school.
