> Carol, apologizing for the repetitiveness of this post, but
I'm trying to clarify my arguments, which appear to have been
misunderstood
Goddlefrood:
Not at all, your argument was easily apprehendable. My response
was, I felt, equally clear, but just in case, here's my summary:
(i) The ruins that seem to be at the front of the folded out
cover of the American version suggest to me the Potter's House.
It was consequential to other material conveyed in my first post.
My suggestion us not unreasoable and an easy conclusion to draw
from it is made.
(ii) The shapes at the foot of the structure wrapped around the
entire cover suggests to me tombstones and from that I draw a
conclusion that Hogwarts graveyard may be represented thereby.
Not at Godric's Hollow at all.
(iii) The structure is suggestive of an arena of some kind, but
I would agree that perhpas it is most suggestive of poetic
licence on the part of Ms. GrandPre.
(iv) What looks to me like drapes or curtains could be symbolic
of the veil at the DoM, they could equally be the dedoxified
curtains for Grimmauld Place ;)
I see at least three distinct places, and possibly a fourth, if
the structure is representative of something, in the cover
presented by Scholastic.
The main thesis is yet to be addressed, perhaps I should expand
further :-?
Goddlefrood, who now adds to previous sign out that King Canute
forded the River Lily, which today is a foot wide ;), quite a
feat by him :)
