Hi all,
When I first read the title it sounded so hollow to me. But, at
last I've become reconciled to it. Since morning I am doing nothing
but reading the various theories over and over again and the best
theory seems to be the four treasures one.
Anyway I did like the suggestion by someone here that the deathly
hallows could refer to hallowed dead people of the wizarding world.
I don't remember the exact context but in the Lord of The Rings,
the main wizard calls an army of the dead to fight isnt it? Maybe
Harry has to raise up an army of dead, like Voldie's inferi but this
time hallowed people so good people to fight the battle. In that
sense this could refer to the climactic battle when the two armies
clash after the horcrux hunt is over and they are all destroyed and
Voldie is vulnerable once again.
Just a few thoughts. But, one has to say that the title grows on
you once you get over the intial shcok. Unlike half-blood prince
which became worse with time and aprticularly after reading the book
because it seemed so pointless.
bye
