The ancient world of Harry Potter

The encyclopedia is laid out like a dictionary, in alphabetical order. Each letter has its own illustration with many details of its own before making way for the various words starting with that letter. Depending on their importance, the terms take up more or fewer pages and have entries that are more or less rich in information. The description always follows the same pattern. The author first describes what the term refers to as well as the moment it appears for the first time in the Harry Potter story. You can then find its Latin and Greek etymology before getting a historical explanation whenever that is possible. Whether in terms of the words selected or the descriptions provided, the encyclopedia aims to be as high in quality as it is enriching for all Potterheads.

You will not only find the most famous characters, the most frequently repeated spells or the best known places. You will have the pleasure of discovering - or rediscovering - others that are rarely mentioned in the Harry Potter books. Some of the words do not even appear in the books and are taken from the video games or the Pottermore website. With more than five hundred pages, this unofficial encyclopedia was made by fans and for fans. It sheds new light on J.K. Rowling's work, which appears even more complex. The magical world of Harry Potter turns out to be a wonderful encyclopedia to explore in order to unpack the hidden secrets of the wizarding world and deepen your general and linguistic knowledge. This wealth of information is a must-have for all fans and promises to be a very original gift.
