I don't blame the enmity between Snape and Harry on Harry from the start.
In the very first potions class, Harry didn't know Snape from any other
teacher and had no reason to feel hatred. Snape immediately began to pick
on him and showed his nasty immature nature.
Guru opines:
I've been thinking about another interpretation of Snape's actions from the
start.
Suppose Snape realizes that LV has to be stopped and the Harry is the only one
who can do it. He also realizes that having been brought up by Muggles, Harry
is starting out behind. Add to that the fact that a number of the faculty give
Harry special treatment and Old Sev decides he has to become Drill Instructor
Snape (DI!Snape to you). Think R. Lee Ermey or Louis Gossett Jr. in black robes
and a taller hat. He's going to whip the kid into shape no matter what what
and doesn't care if Harry hates him in the process.
Just a thought.
Guru
